Wonderful Things

I'm home again, from another enjoyable weekend at Salty Yarns. I have two new Jackie du Plessis projects to stitch, and I spent the drive here planning my approach to both. 

I believe that I will get the "innards" of both finished and installed, then move on to working on the sewing rolls and other goodies that will live in each--so more to add to the schedule (NOT rotation).

And, while I was gone, the kit for a class with Catherine Theron through the Orange Coast Sampler Guild arrived, along with a needle minder commemorating the 30th anniversary of the group:

Since the beginning of the year, I have added a total of three projects from Jackie, two from Catherine, and the Jane Bostocke sampler--and there's more to come. I believe I need to get stitching!

By the way, it has come to my attention that Baby Girl is years out of university. She has become a self-supporting, self-sustaining, mortgage-paying adult, delightful company under almost every circumstance. Yes, I am very proud of her, but perhaps I should stop calling her Baby Girl on the blog. Henceforth (at least when I remember to do it), she shall be known as Best Daughter Ever (BDE, for short).

All other family I.D.'s will remain the same.
