Needless to say - we had a wonderful time with our sampler guild friends. There were lots of people coming thru - mostly quilters but we did try to convert every one we met to stitchers and er - Yep Hookers! I was demo-ing rug hooking for the cupboard instead of stitching.
The following day was rug guild so I had a full weekend of pulling loops and got a lot done on the backround of Merrie. I'm getting so much hooking done lately that I have not been getting much forward progress on my stitching projects.
As soon as it gets 10 degrees cooler - I know the "oh fall is coming" knitting bug will be hitting me. It always does this time of year - when all the fall knitting yarns and magazines come out - WATCH OUT - I'll be heading to the LYS to peruse all the wonderful new wools. I already have joined a SAL for a wonderful challenging cape out of the fall Vogue Knitting mag. It is using a wonderful Alpaca/wool blend which I have been dying to try.
So friends - please drop me a note and let me know you stopped by for a visit. I enjoy every one of you so much.

Oh I love it! What a sweet gift! Can't wait to see more on Merrie!
It is a gorgeous pin pillow! I had no idea when I saw it that it was stuffed with lavender and rosemary...those are 2 scents my scent sensitive nose can handle. They smell SO good. You definitely have a talented friend!
What a lovely gift! I loved hearing about your weekend and I'll look forward to seeing a progress pic of Merrie. Can't wait to see the new knitting project, too!
