August 2013 V5 I8

School begins in KS in a couple of weeks. The Stitchers’ Village school will re-open during this time, also. Many apologies for the delay. Something has caused my energy level to go very low recently. We think it may be the allergy medication, so I have stopped taking that and hope my energy and outlook improve! I have been finishing some of my WIP projects. Most recently, a little Margaret Sherry design “Rose Chick Chat ”. The frame and blue suede mat are in hand. The mat is cut in a circle and it should be a very nice present for my Mother’s 81st birthday the first of September.

JM W., FL, is the totally random drawing winner Doreen R., MA, will receive this month’s Birthday prize
