In October, we traveled to London, Ontario for Jacob Palooza! The event was hosted be Evertote. Jacob was amazing. So knowledgeable! He brought several antique samplers with to share with us.
Jacob taught us how to do an open hemstitch and we also talked about Frisian letters. Our project for the retreat was a sampler that was stitched by both a mother and daughter. It’s a big one. “Go big or go home!”
We had wonderful tablemates. Christine from Mountain Crafts Studio brought her beautiful box entirely stitched on the outside. Thanks to the box, we met everyone at the retreat!
Here are a few more pictures of Jacob’s samplers!
I seem to be having trouble with my photos, but if I can figure it out, I will be back soon!

What an incredible retreat event you attended, Cathy!
Jacopalooza looks like an awesome time.
The Samplers are so pretty, as is the box.

Wow! What a collection he has. They really must have been something to see in person!
