Chicks Rule

I finished this cute one

before I went to the retreat in Belton.

I go to the retreat every year in the spring.

I think this was my 8th year. It's hard to keep track when you just stitch and eat and eat and stitch.

We get to shop for the newest kits, patterns, gadgets

and fabric from the shops that come every year.

We had Stitches from the Heart and Cross Stitch Plus

both from San Antonio, Texas.

I found some great new stash I will share with you all later.

My sister was surprised by the little chicks

with their button beaks.

She took

it to her office to hang it there.

We had a great time, signed up for next year

and will need the get away

by the time it gets here.

We both have had a stressful 2010 so far,

so it was great to get away

for the weekend

and stitch, shop, eat and experience

great companionship

with people who share our love of stitching.

Until next time thanks for stopping by and looking.

I do appreciate it so much.

God Bless your stitching fingers.
