Hi all! Did you miss me? I've got lots to tell since we last visited. First, here's my progress on the EMS SAL. I can hardly believe I'm at the bottom edge already. It is really coming together now.
September's "assignment"
This is a close up of the berries and pansy row. Love that pansy!
Here's a close up of the rose basket corner and the beginning of the bottom border.
I worked on this while driving along in the car last week! Yes, I stitched 40ct. without magnification while riding down the freeway.
You see, my honey and I just celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary on Friday! We decided to make a week of it by taking a road trip to upstate New York and Pennsylvania. It was a wonderful trip and I'm sad to see it end. We saw so many awesome things and had a super great time together.
I'll have more pictures to share and tales to tell later. For now I'm still collecting my thoughts and easing back into the everyday. I can tell you I visited three great stitch shops on our grand adventure (waves to Molly and Beth at the Strawberry Sampler. The close up of the rose basket is for you, Beth!)
A huge thanks goes out to all who gave me suggestions on things to do and places to go. Thanks also for stopping by today. I always enjoy our visits together.
More later,
The Inspired Stitcher

Happy belated anniversary, Lisa! It sounds like you both had a grand time on your trip--can't wait to see some photos :)
Your SAL is really coming along nicely--not sure how you manage to stitch in the car (especially on 40 ct.)!!
What a beautiful sampler! Wow, stitching on 40 ct. while riding in the car, I'm impressed! :-)
Happy 16th Anniversary to you and your hubby!
