Home Again

I'm home! We left straight after class on Sunday and got home on Monday evening. I was back at work the very next day. I have loads to share but it will take me some time to unpack. Not sure I'll do any stitching this week, but I do have my Japanese embroidery meeting on Saturday. Just a quick update on Samara. Some of you probably already know this from Instagram or Facebook but my piece won second place in the EAC board challenge.

There I am accepting my prize from Dianna Thorne. I thought they would announce the results at the banquet on Saturday, but instead it was announced at the AGM luncheon on Wednesday and I wasn't even there. I was off visiting Green Gables. I found out the results when I got back and was visiting the exhibition. I was very pleasantly surprised as I didn't even think it would place at all. The other pieces fit the theme more than mine. The piece that won first prize was amazing, embroidered in white and red with different stitches to depict many Canadian symbols. Every time you looked at it you discovered something new. I'll post a link when pictures will be shared by the EAC.

As for new stash, I won't leave you hanging. Here is a sneak peek.
