First.....
Love the green fabric with those buttons!
I came home today to find my LK Exchange from April waiting in the mailbox. It is a wonderful reminder that fall and Halloween will be here before we know it. I don't have this design in my stash so I am so glad she stitched it for me. The fabric is a pretty green and April chose her own threads, which I think she did perfectly. Thanks for such a wonderful finish and exchange piece.

Second....
I spent the best day with some stitching friends today and this is the pic my camera took from inside my bag! Too busy talking and stitching, I forgot to take a pic but I know you may find a few on some other blogs. Amy hosted the stitchin and we had a great time! Stitching were Nicole, Faye, Yvonne, Carolyn, Charlene, Judy, Donna, Carrie, Linda, Myra, Lynn, Deborah, Debbie, Kathy, June, and Susan, who traveled all the way from Knoxville!
It was fun making some new stitching friends and catching up with the old ones. We had some giveaways and each got to choose a Trail Creek design, thanks to Amy, and a fabric fat quarter, thanks to Susan.
