Stumpwork

Class went well on Wednesday. I'm flattered that 22 of you signed up!

I will work on an improved version of the directions soon. Thanks for all the feedback - Donna.

June Update

Busy week for me. Wednesday is my stumpwork class and Thursday we leave for our Sewing Wild Oats retreat at Graves Mountain.

Stay tuned for photos!

June's Class

Donna's stumpwork dogwood. The class will be about stitching the flower. But if you take the class, you will receive the pattern for the canvaswork box.

Great article.

Holiday Luncheon

Once again we returned for a fabulous time at River Creek Clubhouse. They do a beautiful job of decorating and the food is always wonderful.
