December Session

December 14th, 2007 by Jill Hall

The December session is over; everyone has gone home. We were small in number this time, but you could never tell that by how much was accomplished. Here’s Tricia talking with Cheryl S on the first day.

 

The second picture is Sharon, who earned the title ‘trefoil queen’ by completing at least four of the complicated multi-colored, 3-leaf motifs during this session. Even more impressive is that she left early the first day due to illness. Oh, and she also stitched an entire cornflower – calyx and all. Whew. In the background of this picture is Alison, whose move to Atlanta was prompted by just the sort of storm we had here yesterday.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s Melanie Anne, whose friends wanted pictorial proof of how she’s been spending all her free time lately. Melanie Anne’s from Maine. They get lots of snow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Safe travels home, everyone.
