A Stitcher's Envelope

Just finished up this set of smalls..



The set was designed by Catherine Theron; it's one of her teaching pieces. Looking forward to seeing her again this week at the Needlework Guild of Minnesota Retreat.






Speaking of retreat, the theme this year is "Embrace the Pace"...a tortoise and the hare kind of theme. Here's my name tag for the event:



Going to hit the road now. Will try to post from retreat. Looking forward to the show and tell!
