Great visit with Kindred Spirits Guild

I had a great time last weekend taking a class from Sherri Jones at the Kindred Spirits Guild in Michigan. She is a great teacher! I have the Lounging Hares kit to add to my stitching collection. Now if I can find some time....

Great time in Arkansas

I had such a fun time at Cross Stitch Treasures this last weekend. I taught "My Favorite Scottish Sampler". The ladies were just so nice and I thank Lin for her hospitality!

God Bless our Country!

God Bless everyone and let us not forget.

I am back from a 10-day residency. It was grueling, but my last one for my doctoral program.
Visited downtown Washington and saw the White House, memorials etc. at night. Very nice. Also had the opportunity to do a little shopping. They have a wonderful underground shopping district in Arlington, VA and a great mall.

Teaching in Arkansas soon. Looking forward to meeting all the ladies and Linn. We are doing My favorite Scottish Sampler. This is one of my favorite samplers.

Hope everyone is staying cool. We went from 98 degree weather on Saturday to high 60's today. Not complaining, I much prefer a little cooler weather.

New Email Address - Important

I will be switching Internet providers soon, and am not sure what my new email addresses will be at that time. This will be an email address to use if you need to contact me in the mean time and also after the change:

Rlaukhuf@gmail.com

(I finally took my husband's advice and am sticking with an email that will stay the same no matter what Internet provider I have.)

Thanks,
Robin

New Shining Needle Class - My Favorite Scottish Sampler

If you can't make an in person class, I will be teaching another class for Shining Needle Society. My Favorite Scottish Sampler will be offered in a 7-week class starting Oct. 1 through November 12. Registration begins today and ends on September 15. This is a beautiful Scottish Sampler that is part of my collection. Many specialty stitches will be part of the class (Algerian Eyelet, satin, straight, cross stitch over 1). I will also discuss the history of Scottish Samplers and include an article I authored for Gift of Stitching Magazine. I hope you will join us.
Please contact Kate at kategaunt@aol.com if you would like to join in the fun!

Don't forget Shining Needle Society has no membership fees.
I hope you will join me in adding this beautiful sampler to your collection.
