Flying Threads

It's Springtime!

Elly, the weather this year is soo wonderful. Better than last year when all I seemed to do is shovel snow and pick at the ice. "Better not speak too soon, Michelle, winter is just playing with you. Can you believe it February is upon us and here comes Valentine’s Day." "That reminds me, Elly. We need a sale to perk up our customers’ spirits. I know, we’ll have a sale and call it the ‘We Luv You Special’. By the way I started my 50th birthday present to myself - the Eva Rosenstand picture of the birds and the magnolias. Of course, the fabric became 32 count Belfast linen. I cannot believe the colours which you have brought into the shop. What is going to be your fabric of choice?" "I do prefer Quaker cloth; however, the store has so much variety. By the way, did you order in more Mill Hill beads? I have just recovered from the Kreinik order which you sort of neglected to warn me about. And with auto mail, I am always receiving new charts and magazines from Stoney Creek, Lynne Nicoletti or Leisure Arts. I noticed that the Carons are down. And how big an order did you put in?" "Well, let me put it this way. You are going to need more hooks to add to the alphabetical order of the colours." Plus the Victoria Sampler has just released more designs and the accessory packs of threads. Which reminds me, need to do the Class Schedule since people are asking for classes. Yes, the reverse side has the schedule. We do have some interesting classes - blackwork, hardanger and most important, learn how to cross stitch on either Aida or Linen.

Happy stitchin’, Michelle and Elly

That Gang of Mine...

Thursday nights are filled with laughter and advice from everyone present. No one is safe. It is a constant party and very little stitching gets done. They had a lot of fun picking out the winners. The best part was Lou picking Joyce’s ticket to win the chest. Everyone that night sat in stunned silence as it was the last ticket bought plus each of us shook the box as it went around the table. Joyce was very happy and there were a number of us who offered to take the chest as Joyce had a problem getting it into her car. Surprising she drove home with the chest. What a woman! If there is a will, there is a way.
