In my part of the world we say you are a fool if your passion for a pursuit overcomes all practical sense. I am a stitching fool, and I stitch foolishness.

More Little Stitches

 

At last night's EGA meeting, I finished the strawberries on the bead carrier and started the pin keep for Tribute's Tiniest Treasures. The plan today--subject to change--is to finish the stitching for all four of the smalls in this set. Of course, that will add to the finish-finishing pile. I'm not going to think about that.

We had a stitch-in for our meeting last night. Normally, we have a social in August, but EGA's National Seminar is going on at the moment, and a number of our members are attending. We decided to have a stitch-in at our regular meeting place for those members who were interested. And it was delightful! 

We had a chance to talk about what we were working on--normally that doesn't happen until the project is finished and is brought in for Show-and-Share. Actually, a lot of times it's more interesting to see things in progress. We also had the opportunity to just hang out, and that's always a joy. The general consensus was that we should probably schedule this into our regular program plans. There isn't anything that says you have to do a project at every meeting, and Lord knows, we all have plenty to do!
