Stitching with friends....




Yesterday was stitching with friends and I think & hope everyone had a good time. There were 11 of us & there were ladies here from 9 a.m. until almost 10:30 p.m. Char & Teresa came down from OH & KY, also folks here from NC & SC as well. We talked, laughed, stitched, ate (some shopped at DSL) and Nicole & I finished our LHN "Chocolate Box" pieces into cubes. We only got a few pics and sorry, none of the food/goodies, but there was more than enough here to eat, sub platter from Subway, chips of all kinds, a Cheescake (assorted flavors), a chocolate cake, cheese danish, cookies and "Redneck something or other" (can't remember what she called it) that Renee made that was a big hit. Uses saltine crackers, brown sugar, butter & chocolate chips. Was really good too! ;-)


Below is Renee & when Ray took the pics & he said this was a "serious stitcher with her headgear" or something like that. She isn't going to like me posting this pic... wonder if she looks at my blog? ;-) Guess we'll find out!


Here are the "Chocolate Box" finishes. Mine has the red (of course) and Nicole's has the pink. She was going to go home, take it apart & try again. I think she did a great job for her first time finishing a cube!

Thanks for visiting... hope you have a great day & happy stitching!

Sounds like you had a good time. All those gatherings with good friends, stitching or doing something else fun, I really look forward to them. Arranging a gathering myself in the end of this month. Hugs, take care.
