My Birthday with the Stitchers
Sunday, the stitch group met.
First we had some show and tell. Do you remember the woven baskets two stitchers bought at the flea market?
Well, now they are ready for winter. How cute!
Here are three butterfly bags, two finished and one just needs the drawstring.
Our first project of the afternoon was a quick one. We all got little sake cups at the flea market and using some shibori fabric (also from the flea market), we made up some little pin cushions.
Then we started some cathedral windows, but somehow I didn't get any pictures of that. We will continue to work on them next time, so I hope to have pictures then.
Our hostess has a pretty tree with some stitched ornaments from last year and the year before.
If you have been reading my blog long, you know that I love my birthday. I celebrate every day in December, not just one day. They had a wonderful cake for me - chocolate with fruit and a box of delicious strawberries! Pamera is my Japanese name.
After the dessert, we had pizza. (Do you notice how the pizza plate looks like cathedral windows?) Oishi katta!
I am so thankful to be a part of this group. They are so kind to me. (And they never laugh at my awkward Japanese).
