Classes with Catherine

I was really looking forward to this weekend as I had not taken any classes with Catherine Theron before. We had the opportunity to meet her on Friday for a "stitching day" with the rest of the class participants; our classes were on Saturday and Sunday. I really like both of these projects...


...but I think I will be finishing A Stitcher's Envelope first. The second piece, Alphabet Primer Pocket is solid stitching over one. I'm not as intimidated by over one as I used to be, but it will take me longer!

Catherine was thrilled to see our finished Quaker Sewing Rolls. I think the greatest compliment we can give a designer is to actually stitch and finish their class pieces!


Yesterday was a travel day for us. We still managed to fit in a little stash enhancing. We stopped at Lynn's in Madison...


...and Witchery Stitchery in Mt. Horeb...


And then finished our day at our local guild's stash reallocation sale! Whew, I'm tired!

    What a fun day! I agree, finishing a designer's piece like that and showing it off is a lot of fun.

    I took Catherine's Quaker Sewing Rolls class at Celebration of Needlework (not sure which year) and it was wonderful as was she. Love that design and look forward to putting the last stitch in.
