I hope all is well with you all, so sorry I have not been in Blogland for almost two months, I am spring cleaning, gardening and planting, pruning and all the fun stuff this time of year.
I did get in some stitching, I finished the Lily's Chicken design from Teresa Kogut Patreon site, I am going to try and stitch it onto my white jean jacket, is it a good idea or nix that? maybe a few ideas from you all in Blogland.
I just love her so much, the chickens are a hoot
Love the color of threads used, especially the white pumpkin
I had the privilege of going to the Welcome Stitchery Retreat on May 17th and 18th, it was a blast, Teresa Kogut and Chantelle from Chantells 141 Designs, what a fun time we had, I met the owner of Welcome Stitchery, Justine is a blast, her staff is so accommodating, the design from Teresa is a three part set
I have been stitching the Drum this past week, love drums for some reason, my progress, so far, the thread colors are a bit muted which I really like
So sorry for the wrinkles, this one is done on 40 county, I do not have a stretcher bar that small so have to do in hand
Chantelle gave us some amazing boards to finish with the designs from Teresa
And
And this adorable bag, with threads and needle
Nice assortment of threads
I fell in love with her wood designs and started following her on Patreon, she is an amazing designer of wood products
I did buy a little stash, not much I am trying to stitch from stash I already have
Love this design also
The Pony Black needles are amazing; they have a white top and silver bottom of the needle.
I just need to find a tin for this design
Some new fabric for Spring Easter and Valentine stitch designs for next year
Some clearance fabric yum
Some project cards, Welcome Stitchery always sends a project card with every order, I just wanted more for the designs I will be stitching from stash
There were so many fun gifts exchanged and given by welcome Stitchery
A fun Needlebook with Teresa Kogut fabric,
Catherine

I have never been to a retreat. I am glad you had a good time. Wonderful new stash. :)
So good to see your post and catch up with you, Catherine. Spring is definitely a busy, busy time of year with our gardens and spring cleaning! What nice things you got from your retreat. I stitched that cute Give Thanks piece last fall, but have yet to finish it. I'm sure I'll have it done before Thanksgiving :) Hope your last week of May is a good one! ♥
Wow you had a lot to share, cant wait to see the next post. The retreat sounded great, glad you enjoyed yourself. Happy gardening :) donna

Your retreat sounds like so much fun! What lovely charts you picked up, I'm looking forward to watching your progress. I stitched the Give Thanks pattern too, and I agree those pumpkins are very nice. I love the Teresa Kogut stocking you stitched. So precious! Happy Stitching!
Oh no, not spring cleaning. We did so much I thought we would never finish! But don't worry, we still have enough for summer, autumn and winter cleaning too! LOL I just LOVE the Lily's Chicken design. I only stitched on clothing one time but I stitched it directly on to the clothes.
You got in some great stitching! I love the drum. Sounds like the retreat was fun and you got some nice goodies. The fabric on your needlebook is cute!
Have a great week, Catherine.
