Every Christmas season one of my top highlights is our annual stitchers party. We have so much fun it is unbelievable. We gathered at Karin's home this December and had a splendid afternoon of noshing, stitching, laughing and present exchanging. Karin set a gorgeous red and white table for us. She had homemade soup too!
Here we are passing around Karin's finish of the Lizzie Kate mystery sampler. I should have stitched this one. It is Gorgeous!!
Pat was working on Harriet Coe by WTNT.
I love this decorative plate that Karin had up. She is from Holland you know!
Here are two of the SB stockings Karin has stitched.
Every year we go absolutely nuts over Karin's tree of stitched ornaments!!!!! I have declared 2014 Year of the Ornament for me. I am working on my second one right now and will keep you updated on developments as they occur. I am really excited about this idea! The top ornament with the deer was stitched by Patti and the Santa all in red was stitched by me a couple of years ago.
I brought some show and tell. I stitched this completely fabulous NFF chart, Christmastide, and had it finished in a flat fold. It is stupendously cool!!!
This is a BBD drum keep. I put my Grandma's name on it.
It is not a party unless there is Tab!!!
This is Karin's finish of the Janet Reid sampler (in wools!) by Chessie and Me. It is so so so gorgeous!
Here we are 'round the table.
Time for presents!!!
Some fab finishes in Karin's stitching room.
And back to ogle the tree....

We celebrated Christmas Eve together again. My husband, Mike, my Mom and my brother, Todd. It was a cozy evening of togetherness and fun spent among the most wonderful Christmas decorations anywhere. I love the way my Mom decorates. It makes my heart sing!!! Thank you Mom!!!!
