Greetings Stitchers from Hatteras Island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

Yes, this where I am on a little family vacation.  It was truly one of those last minute plans, but so happened our cottage was not rented and we grabbed the chance for a little family R&R.

Actually, I perceive it as a stitcher’s retreat!  I had the best time (or the most frustrating depending on how you look at it) deciding what projects to bring along.

Fortunately I’m able to store a suitable floor lamp, but there isn’t space to store a floor stand so that has to be carried along.  I usually carry 2 or 3 bags of projects, but since our time here is limited I decided to restrict myself to what I could pack in one large tote and one small tote for travel time.  Hey, it’s a 6 hour trip and that’s a lot of valuable stitching time–not to mention listening to a recorded book.

Anyway, Frisco Frog was finished by the time we arrived.  Now I’m switching between my Julie Mar frog which is almost finished and my “Princess Puppy” from Sew Much Fun.

Hopefully, everyone is happily stitching and have plenty of supplies to keep busy with while I’m away.

Will be back in the shop on the 11th.

Thinking of Stitching,

Caroline
