Hello fellow exchangers I would like to introduce to myself. My name is Brenda and I live in Wisconsin. I am a LPN working on my BSN. I'm an emptynester as of about 2 months ago. I enjoy the peaceful house. It can be a bit lonely but I get online and read different cross stitchers blogs/book blogs and I feel like I have a world within my grasp. I am going to my first stitching retreat in November. I am really excited. I have two fur babies. They give me alot of pleasure. I have a webshots page and a blog.

LHN on its way!

I mail my LHN exchange today. May not arrive by the 13th but, I had a hard time with the heat. It is an in the style of LHN, as I did not have any LHN patterns. Hope my partner likes it.

LHN exchange on it's way!

HELLO!
My LHN exchange project is on it's way today! I'm afraid the person receiving it won't get it by the assigned deadline but hope it's worth the wait for you! It was fun stitching it and it was my very first LHN design I've stitched too. Loved it! Guessing i"ll be making another for myself soon!

From The Home of the Totally Useless Stitcher....

Hi everybody,

.....To paraphrase YoYo and her Totally Useless SAL! I finally finished my Just Nan piece and it's on its way with a few tiny treats by way of apology. I knew I was going to be late and had permission but not this late! I do have exciting news from here, though - my husband has a job after six months of being without one. The only thing is that it's in Michigan and his company want us to move NOW! We have spent the whole of July sorting and cleaning, working some of the time, arranging for a realtor, a painter, landscapers to tidy our somewhat overgrown garden, all with the help of my sister and husband who, most unwisely, arrived for a holiday with us! We couldn't have done it without them! Anyway, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! Apologies to my dear exchange partner! Onto the LHN piece now!

LHN Away!!!!!

Phew!!!!!

My LHN exchange is on it's way and I have to say, I would have quite like to have kept it...always a sign it turned out OK. As I am new to most finishing styles, there is always an element of fear but I really, really enjoyed stitching this and I hope my exchange partner likes it.

I am sending it registered post as after all that effort I would hate for it to get lost, and you never know...if the leprochauns are feeling a bit naughty anything can happen.

All the best

My LHN is flying away...

Today I posted my LHN exchange to my partner, I really hope they like what I made.
Happy Stitching.

LHN Received

Received this from Elisa in the UK. It was her first pillow finish and tassels as well. I think she did a great job. She also included two skeins of variegated floss. Thank you very much.
