3rd of July

Hey, guess what? Cathy had a Saturday Sidewalk Sale today at Inspired Needle!!!!
(See the link for details; the sale is going on all month every Saturday). All the patterns on the sidewalk were buy two get one free! And she put out really good stuff!!! It was a lot of fun. I had a quick stop there because Mike was waiting for me in the car.....while he was playing with the IPhone I was having a grand old time looking through potential stash.

These are the patterns that I got at the sale. The two LHN and one BBD pictured here. While browsing I met a fellow stitcher who I could have spent the day with! Her name is Linda and she was so friendly, enthusiastic and just an all around great gal!!! I am trying to convince her to come to our stitching gatherings! Hi Linda!!!!! Hope you can join us soon!!!!!!
These next two are patterns I bought in the store (not on sale). Well...I had to browse around inside the air conditioning after being out in the sunshine, right?
Ever since I saw a finished model of the July stocking with the house and flag I was in love with it. Now I am ready for next year's 4th of July!
Above is a new chart from The Sampler Girl and I love it!!! I might want to change her dress color though...any suggestions? There is nothing better than hanging out at the Inspired Needle!! It is just so, so.....so Inspiring!!!!
