It's a pity that photographs aren't allowed inside but I can understand that. It's incredible how motivating such needlework shows can be. There aren't many in my region, just the occasinal quilt show but when I come home from such a show I don't want to do anything but quilt and stitch and sew.<br />Many years ago I stitched one of these gorgeous Ginger & Spice samplers, the Rocky Mountain one. It was in my early days of stitching and so it's on Aida. Have fun with your New England Sampler.Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922122091202289138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30890518.post-12876190144248990862012-06-13T17:21:46.973-04:002012-06-13T17:21:46.973-04:00I don't understand not including the designer....I don't understand not including the designer. So wierd. Looks like you had a lovely time.<br /><br />I took a Texas map class from C. Jordan several years ago and it was a lot of fun. We even did some fabric and thread dying. Sadly, it is still a UFO due to all the backstitching needed. TX is a big state to stitch!
