Announcing the Winner!

Hello Folks!  I'm so sorry I'm so late announcing the winner, it's been a complete mad house here lately.  I was away over the weekend getting the buttons to finish off the Jingle mini bag and I was so tired yesterday I mostly slept the day away.  

Without further ado, the winner is...Robin!  I sat down last night with my dear husband and he picked Robins name, literally out of his hat.  Congratulations, Robin!  Your package is already in the mail.   

The retreat was a lot of fun.  I reconnected with old friends and made new ones.  My DIL was able to go with me and it was nice to talk about things that have been going on without interruption from kids and husbands.  I'm so thankful she became a stitcher too and enjoys it as much as I do.  She's already talking about going to another one, and I'm thrilled!  I did a lot of socializing so didn't get a lot of stitching done.  I worked on a few little projects, but mainly worked on Pansy Garden by Samplers Not Forgotten.  It's coming along nicely.  There are a lot of specialty stitches that slows me down so it doesn't look like I've done much, but I did make it to the bottom just above the border on one side of the piece.  I'm sorry for the awful picture.  I'll try to take a better one next time.  

I don't have any other pictures to show just yet of the other small pieces I've been working on.  I'll be busy the next week or so as our littlest granddaughter will turn two soon.  We have plans and things to sort out so we will be busy, but hopefully I'll be able to sneak in some stitching and I'll post again as soon as I can.  Til then, stay safe, stay well, and Happy Stitching!
