What's Up at Stitcher's Treasures

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to all of you.  I hope that you all have a wonderful and restful weekend.   Jerry and I will be getting ready to leave on vacation June 2nd and will be gone until June 16th.  I will be taking my laptop so if you need to you can email me.  We are going to go to Pennsylvania and then on to Niagara Falls to my newphew's wedding and a family reunion.  I am very excited.

Dorothy and Heidi will be here taking care of things.  I think that they are planning some special things so make sure you watch the web site and for your newsletter. 

We have some new things here from Namaste.  They have a new Urban and Messenger Bag and new colors in the Buddy Cases. 

I have developed a Yahoo Group for the Birds of A Feather Mystery Sampler.  Here is link for any of you who would like to join us, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Mystery_Sampler-Birds_Of_A_Feather/.   All the kits have been sent out.  I looked at the chart and it is very easy to read.  I am looking forward to starting mine.

For any of you that want to I will be starting another Yahoo Group for Emma & Eliza.  I will also be ordering the silk kits for that project.  So any of you that are interest in that please let me know.

Things I learned at Stitcher's Survival Camp

I know that I said that laptops were banned but the cabin came equipped with one.  So we decided to post some our suvivakl techniques. 

•  Make sure that we have the driving directions
•  Water is a necessity for the coffee maker
•  The fireplace and the coffee maker beep
•  We have enough food for an army (maybe we will get snowed in :) :) )
•  Levitation is a skill not yet mastered
•  Things go bump in the night (possibly your roommate)
•  Toaster has to be plugged in and the level has to be pushed down
•  Stay out of the dogs race track
•  Teach the dogs about sliding glass doors

And this was just day one, more tomorrow.
