BDE and I were planning a trip to Salty Yarns next week so we could both take classes from Jackie. Due to a series of unfortunate incidents, those classes have been postponed to April, but we have a non-refundable, non-transferrable reservation in Ocean City.
Well, we've been talking about having a week to just stitch with no other responsibilities, and we've wanted to explore Berlin, the town where Salty Yarns is now located, so we're going anyway. There is a stitch-in on Thursday afternoons at Salty Yarns, so we'll go to that and get our Salty fix. Otherwise, we plan to sleep in, eat out, and stitch until our fingers fall off. Er, hopefully not the last thing, but we want to stitch a lot.
Well, that means planning a project to take. Actually, that means planning multiple projects to take. I've spent the morning doing that.
Here's what I came up with:
I have Katie Strachan's Elizabethan Valentine, which I'd like to get done before the class for Queen Anne's Pyn Pillow starts. I have Alsion Cole's ornament from last year, which I did not get stitched last year. There is Catherine Theron's Flowers & Berries Band Sampler, started a couple of weeks ago. And I have Amy Mitten's Casket Keepsakes. The grasshopper/caterpillar part is stitched, but I have to make a snail.
This should keep me out of trouble. Or should I pick another project or two, and do something different every day?
Maybe I should think about packing clothes instead of more projects.
Sounds like a great week filled with perfect projects. Though I tend to take more....just because I can! Clothes, not as important. Enjoy your time.
ReplyDeleteGlad that you are still going with your daughter! What a wonderful assortment of projects you are taking! I always pack my project bag(s) first. I think you should add a few more projects, Ann.
