A class, some lovely stitching and new patterns

It was fun to share a class with some lovely ladies on Monday. They were getting ready for Christmas and the ladies were making a little felt Santa, mini Christmas bunting, a redwork stitchery and a foundation pieced stocking decoration. Several of them started a few of the projects and enjoyed learning some new skills.

 One of the ladies brought along this gorgeous pouch full of her stitching goodies. It was a project from the Inspirations magazine and used a wonderful assortment of braids

 At Wednesday stitching, Christine was working on a beautiful tablecloth that her mother had embroidered. It was quite old and had a printed label mentioning "wartime".

 This gorgeous cross stitch was being worked on as well.

 Hobbysew had a delivery of lovely Anni Downs' patterns on Tuesday and these just HAD to come home with me!!!!

 Then I HAD to start on a couple of the little stitcheries for the bags!
