If you are interested in participation, see the blogs [link HERE] and the Challenge Rules [Link HERE] .    

The needlework samplers are by The Scarlet Letter - Website Link HERE, seems to me a wide variety of samplers to choose from.

Enjoying alphabets, I finished Polly Miner, 1822 
earlier this month.
This is a sampler from the Sheldon Museum in Middlebury, Vermont.

Sewing + Laundry day ....

After a half hour yanking on the Vera Bradley apron tie --- Jasper decided to ignore it and nap!

Guess I'll post pone sewing until today's laundry loads are completed.

Maybe time to play with memory wire and beads ...
