April 2011

 Above is "Eggs Ala Round" from Glendon Place

April in the Village is “All About Accessories” month. One of our members has provided the stitching instructions for a scissor keep, and I have added an alphabet and design for personalization. This is available as a file link in the social area under the stitch along discussion. (in the social area choose the tab at the top of the main page “Forum”, select “ Stitch Along Forum”, then “All About Accessories”). As a reminder, the new social area of the village is reached through the Tea Shoppe. This was added last fall and does require a sign up process. Groups continue to be added in the social area with the latest addition “Down and Dirty” for those members who have an interest in gardening. We have several Round Robin groups going and have several individuals waiting for more to sign up for both aida and linen stitchers to fill groups of six. If you are interested in participating in a round robin, please send me an email at pattytsv@gmail.com and I will forward you the information you need to provide of your preferences so that you can be assigned to a group.
