HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Oh wait....

Yes the new year is a couple of weeks old, but it is a happy new year. Shawkl (Kathy) has written an awesome lesson on how to stitch "Bullion Roses" and it is posted on the Crazy Quilting Wiki (link to the lessons and challenge page, scroll down to Lesson 12).

Along with the new lesson on the wiki, Shawkl has continued her 12 dozen in 12 months stitch challenge, posted on her blog: shawkl.com

Two great stitching opportunities for this new year, enjoy.

Happy Stitching
TGIF!!

It's Official!!!

I'm going to the COF Retreat in New Hampshire in April. I booked my flight yesterday. I have never attended a stitching/crafting retreat and I can't WAIT!!!!

So far in 2009 I'm doing two things I've wanted to do for many years. In Feb. I am taking my first online Crazy Quilting Class and going to a Stitching/Crafting Retreat in April!!!

Happy 2009!!!

4 stitches

Four stitches have been posted on Kathy's blog www.skawkl.com. I have stitched all four stitches. Only hope I can keep up as the weeks/months go on. I happen to have an open weekend and plenty of time to stitch.

Here are stitches #2, #3, and #4:







Stitch #4 photo isn't very clear, but it is pretty in person.
