Design: Grace and Virtue Sampler
A few weeks ago I attended Celebration of Needlework in Nashua, NH. The highlight of the trip was time spent with fellow bloggers, Carol and Margaret. Unfortunately, the class that I was excited about attending turned out to be a disappointment. The instructor was a very nice woman however, I was not impressed with her teaching abilities. I do love the class project and managed to complete about 80% of if. Once complete I will post pictures.
Designer: The Purple Thread
Design: Travels with Meagan
While shopping in the Vendor Mall I managed add to my stash with these treasures…
The longarm quilter phoned to let me know that my quilt was ready and I am happy to say that I picked it up, put the binding on, and have it ready to bring to the Graduation party at the end of this month.
Graduation Quilt for Ryan
The weather here has been so nice (finally). I found time to plant my garden and am anxious for the plants to grow so I can begin using them in my cooking. This year I planted Basil, Rosemary, Lemon Balm, Chocolate Mint, Cherry Red Tomatoes, Yellow Tomatoes, and a Sunflower plant. To my surprise the Lavender which I planted last year has come to life and is flourishing!
Thank you for stopping by…
Until next time…

Thanks for taking part in GG this month. Your friend was very kind to treat you to the chart.
Your stash looks great, I particularly like the look of the Hallowe'en Quaker design.
Glad to stop by during my GG tour. Nice work and purchases. xxx
Grace and Virtue - so beautiful! I did a devotion on grace recently and this would have been perfect to use with it. :) blessings, marlene
Ryan's quilt is fantastic!
This quilt is lovely! Wonderful stitches and a very nice stash.
What a fabulous quilt you created for the graduate! You are off to a great start with the Grace and Virtue Sampler. It sounded like you had a good time with your friends at Celebration of Needlework. Sorry your class was a bit disappointing. Enjoy your weekend!

Grace and Virtue... that is a lovely pattern and why have I not seen it before. I guess it will have to be added to my stash list of things to buy :)
Great start so far.
You've been doing great on that new sampler--really like it! And the quilt is so gorgeous! Yay! One of my stitching buddies also went to Celebration of Needlework... She really enjoyed it! AND the mall!! Hugs!
A nice new project you started. I love Brenda Keyes' designs very much. And I have one all kitted up just waiting for a start.
Great new stash, Marie, but sorry that the instructor was a a bit of a diappointment.
The graduation quilt is fantastic.
