    @eileen-bennett Thinking of you! Hope you are doing well. I remember we last met at the Oct 2017, PSR Seminar at Oceanside, CA. Just wanted to share with you that I have a picture of your “Flowering Tree” little needlework sampler from the EGA Needle Arts Magazine, Sept 2017 issue, Designers Across America” project, on my desk in Sedona, AZ, keeping me company while I “shelter in place”. It is very comforting to look at and think of the good time we had at that Oceanside Seminar. Would like to hear how your needlework is going these days. Thanks for accepting my “friend” request. Take Care!

      Thank you for reaching out to me Margaret. I do remember our seminar at Oceanside with fond thoughts. So many nice people, so much talent within the group. It was a pleasure for me to be there. All is well here in the Grand Rapids area but we are between two hot spots, Detroit and Chicago, with the crazy virus. As always, something good comes out of bad and I have had time off from my full-time job at a dealership to create a new design for the retail market. It is about 3/4-stitched. I will post a photo of it on face book when finished. In the meantime, look for a new freebie on the EGA website. It went off to them yesterday. It combines small cross stitches with pattern darning.
      Any variegated thread can be used and teamed with solid DMC colors. Pick your favoite colors. I’m pleased you liked and stitched the project in Needle Arts from 2017. When some one completes one of my designs, it is the biggest compliment you can give me. Thank you for that! Stay healthy and well, we we all get through this madness together.

      @eileen-bennett Did EGA ever publish your freebie on the EGA website, as you mentioned to me in this post, a year ago. If so, can you send me the link to it.

      And what about your 2021 classes? Send me any links.

      Hope you are doing okay!
