Annual Stitching Retreat

This past weekend I went on my annual stitching retreat. I taught Embroidery on Paper, and it was a big hit! I took a class on Punchneedle embroidery. It is way cool. I can't wait until my next trip to the needle work shop to get a few patterns and threads.
We're headed to Fargo in a few weeks, so I'll go shopping there.
Here's a picture of the pin I made in class:

Birds and Spring

As I was waiting for the cable guy this morning, and watching the birds I saw:

• Goldfinches
  
• House Sparrows
  
• House finches
  
• Starlings
  
• Grackels (ugh)
  
• Juncos
  
• Blue Jay
• Red-winged blackbird
  
• a pair of Cardinals
  

How about that!

I updated my web page graphics yesterday. Maybe after my stitching retreat I'll update some content.
