If anyone is interested in purchasing an additional pumpkin pincushion kit from the October program, Stephanie H. has extras; please contact her.
Beginning in January 2012, Mary D. will take sign ups for the Nancy Renssela Mystery Sampler by Linda Lautenschlager of “Chessie and Me”; cost will be under $125. She also sent an email to Brenda Gervaise of “With thy Needle and Thread” to inquire about her availability to come and teach a workshop.
