A FUN FUN DAY

Today was the day I got to meet with Mary and what a day it was. We decided to meet for lunch and I suggested my favorite buffet. I knew the food would be good but also it would be quiet enough so we could chat and they never give you the bums rush to eat and clear out so they can clean your table. You would have thought we had known each other since were we kids. We ate and chatted and ate some more and chatted a lot more and exchanged gifts we had made for each other. She made me the wonderful Froggie Bag you will see in the second picture and I gave her one of the Cupcake pincushions and a scissor fob. I think lunch took us at least a hour and a half and was so enjoyable. After lunch we headed for my LNS. It was a real treat for me to see Mary's face light up when she saw all the fun stuff. She doesn't have a LNS where she lives so I'm sure she really enjoyed seeing all the charts, threads and fabric up close and personal

We both did a little damage to the pocketbook and was able to enable each other. After this we went to the Super JoAnn's. Mary works in a regular JoAnn's and had never been to a Super Store. She knew they were having a clearance on some of the fabrics and we couldn't resist a clearance sale could we. She found several pieces of Aida and I found a couple pieces of Linen.

It was one of the best days I've had in a very long time. A girls day out with someone I hope I get to spend time with again. I only wish I could meet more of my online stitching buddies and that we could all get together in person for a wonderful day like today.

Froggie Bag from Mary

isn't it the cutest thing and it is lined with

the same green fabric as the pocket with a big

pocket inside. It will hold lots of stitching goodies

for when I go out.

No stitching today but for a day like today I would gladly give up a day of stitching

Until Next Time....Happy Stitching
