    Monique – I have a surface embroidery group meeting on my calendar for this coming Sunday, July 13. But then I’m in 2 different (but same) groups.. One on Sunday and the other on Saturday. So if you’re in the Sunday group July 13, if this is the Saturday group July 19. lol

      OK? Thanks you–I have no idea which group I belong! I attended both and I liked both. If I am correct, the passcode is the same for both goup ? I will try–if it works fine, if not–it is what it is.!. Monique

      I have started the polychrome version–it’s a WIP–and had to rechart part of the blackwork in it.

      My friend Edith started the whitework one, and gave up when she was almost finished! Here is a picture of when she stopped:

    The group’s picture is Pattern Record from the Scarlet Letter. It’s stitched completely reversibly! Here’s a photo of the back. So why did I do that? It was for the challenge.

    I have several WIPs. The one I was working on the most before COVID was the first Frances Cheney from The Essamplaire (not the whitework one). I hope to get back to it…[Read more]

    I had such grand plans!
    Make a post once a week, such a simple idea. But such are the plans of mice and men …..

    Then this thing called “baby” happened, and somehow my free time vanished.

    Lately I have been making little felt animals. Still in the making patterns and perfecting assembly stage.
