Great Saturday, a new friend & a gift

Yesterday was a really great day. I had two friends over to stitch.... Nicole, who has been coming about once a month and as always, it was great to see her. We have so much in common & I'm not really sure who is more "addictied" to stitching/stash, me or her! It's always wonderful to spend the day with Nicole! And recently I "met" Faye via email and she came yesterday too. We had a great time & I think she fits into the "addicted" category right along with the rest of us!
:-) She brought me a lovely stitched gift - here are pics of the front & back.

Plum Street Samplers "In God We Trust"

Isn't it great & wasn't that so very thoughtful of her? It's finished so nicely too, thank you again Faye! I hope she will be able to visit more as well.

As far as stitching, I started the ornament for Becky SC, the last one in the 08/09 Monthly Ornament Exchange. I didn't finish it as I put it down last night to stitch in the Just Nan Bluebird Box. It's coming along nicely & I hope to get it finished soon!

Thanks to Nicole, I'm going to pull out yet another chart by Country Cottage to start next! lol Yes, I have to blame it on someone. If you haven't browsed Nicole's Flickr albums, you must. OMG, what a treat. I've met a lot of really fast stitcher's over the years, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone with albums so full of pics. It's just amazing. I could sit for hours and go through blogs & albums, adding to my "wish" list on almost every single one, but then I wouldn't have any time to stitch these things on my very long & ever growing list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm headed out to my parents for awhile and then home to stitch. Thanks for stopping by & Happy Stitching!
