Had a fun, fun day yesterday. A few of the girls came over to meet carver Linda (so many Lindas now in my life that they have to be defined – Linda, the other Linda, carver Linda etc.). Linda came a long way to spend the day with us hooking (hmmm not tooooo much of that got done), punching, eating, yacking, showing and telling (rugs, punch needle and hand carved primitive pieces), eating, yacking (oh did I say that already :-). Resident photographer Gord and his trusty iPhone recorded the day…
Karen was working on her Olde Tattered Flag pattern in wonderful soft antique tones…
Carver Linda showing her Crows (design by Wendo Van Essen)… as Linda crochets (not sure if that is a cap or a basket 🙂 …
Everyone admiring my (oops I mean carver Linda’s rug) (design by Deanne Fitzpatrick)…
Andrea working on a few of the prodded flowers she is making for her daughter’s wedding – thank goodness the wedding is not till this fall as there are a LOT of flowers to still be made…
Dale, a new hooker, getting introduced to the girls…
Hmmm, so not sure who was talking but it looks serious… or intriguing!…
Carver Linda’s DF rug – soooo beautiful…
Just a few additional notes – next date at Stitch by Stitch will be April 6.
