Stitching Fun

Another excellent Tuesday night was had by all who attended the bimonthly festivities at the Inspired Needle. We have so much fun, and anyone who would like to join us is welcome to attend. We meet the first and third Tuesday evenings. Please click the link above to be taken to the Inspired Needle website.

Above is a wonderful finish by Pat. It is another fantastic pattern by Carriage House Samplings. If anyone has a ton of CHS patterns that they would like to donate to my cause (the cause of lusting over all CHS patterns); please let me know! (Obviously that is a joke, because everyone loves these patterns!!!!!)
Pat is now working on this marvelous oversized pin cushion!!!!! Love it!!!
Our stitching guru, Barb, recently came across the deal of a lifetime and was able to purchase a large lot of linen.....here we are looking at it and just dreaming of all of the wonderful things one could do with that pile!!!!
The lovely and talented Jayne is working on this adorable witch from With Thy Needle. At the end it will be finished into the shape of a candy corn!!!! We were all particularly taken with the cuteness of her shoes!
Above and below are my purchases of the evening. Inspired Needle has a reward program and it came at exactly the right time for me!!!!! Above is one of the new BBD books........yum! Below is new LHN pattern. It will be a great companion to my finished piece (see bottom of post).
Below is one of Barb's current projects. This picture does not do it justice. It is just a really stunning work. Can't wait to watch the progress on this one. Gorgeous with a capital G!
Below is a close-up of the gorgeousity (yes, that is now a word! well it is to me at least!)
Below is Linda's newest work in progress. This is her first CHS design and it is so darn cool!!! Love the fabric that she and Cathy picked out for this one. By the end of the evening Linda had finished that pumpkin and the number 2 inside of the pumpkin really stood out and looked fabulous.
Here is another work in progress of Barb's. It is the "Alphabet Sampler" by Chessie & Me. I am immediately adding it to my wish list. There is a little girl figure in the middle. I love her!!!!
Ta-da!! I have a finish!!!! I will either find a ready-made frame that she will fit in or send her off to be made into a mattress pad pin cushion. I envision a basket filled with little projects someday.
Hope your day is great and filled with things you love to do and see!
