Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to everyone!

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of my mother. I miss her dearly.

Soon I will be adding some new teaching pieces to the website.

Rosa Swan Essamplaire Stitch Along

I wanted to let everyone know that next Spring (2012) I will be teaching the Rosa Swan Essamplaire stitch along/online class for the Swan Guild. If you are interested they will be providing more information in the 3rd quarter newsletter. Hope you will join us. The Swan Guild always has great projects.
The class will include the scissor case and needle case accessories and will be stitched on Lakeside Linens fabric "Porcelain". It a beautiful fabric.

Hi everyone,

Unfortunately, I have had to cancel teaching at Celebrations in May due to personal reasons. I will miss being there and hope to attend next year.

Teaching Rosa Swan Essamplaire

On the 12th, I will be teaching for Inn Stitches my Rosa Swan Essamplaire. I am looking forward to meeting the ladies in the class.

I have been busy working on several new antique samplers and can't wait to share them with you.

Have a great week and take time to stitch!

Closing Website soon!

Hi Everyone,

No we are not going out of business. I have been refocusing my business more on teaching cross stitch at retreats, guilds and clubs.

I am closing down my website at oldewillowstitchery.com. I just don't have the time to keep up the blog and website while working on my dissertation. I will be putting new teaching designs, etc. on the blog. Please note that robin@oldewillowstitchery.com will not work much longer.

To contact me in the future please use owsthreads@oh.rr.com.

Thanks!
