Summer Quaker Exchange

Today I received a wonderful package from Laurie in Decorah, IA - she stitched a lovely pinkeep for me using elements from a Carriage House Samplings design. I was tickled to also receive the pattern for And A Forest Grew, some fabric fat quarters, and a package of needlework labels from CHS! Thanks Laurie!



I also want to show you the pinkeep I stitched for Jo for this exchange. Visit Jo's blog to see the pinkeep that she stitched for Laurie. I think we're all happy!



This week I've been working on Lakeside Lodge - it's about two thirds finished. I'll try to post a progress picture tomorrow. Take care.

Blogger doesn't want me to add photos now...I'll try again later! - Later edited to add pictures...

Hi Cathy, thanks for finding my blog! :) Ive added your blog to my blogroll, so I can check back!

You have wonderful finishes here.. cant wait to see your Lakeside Lodge! I totally understand not getting blogger to upload the pics. I had the headache with it last night uploading the Pinetop Lodge finish.

Lets hear about about that white table runner you have under your pieces. Is it an antique? Is it a family treasure? Perhaps it's your own work. It's gorgeous. Tell us all about it please, pretty please.

Wow you have been busy!!

The more I see of LHN patterns the more I like -- going to have to go on a LHN shopping spree sometime soon!!

September is good for getting back Sampler Game Board on Sundays.

I needed to get my weekly SAL stitching out of the way - they were a bit overwhelming.

One more to finish which I started working on this evening again - WMN Cherished Workes.
