Spooky October

2019 TRSG Ornament designed by Sherri H.

And somehow…it’s October.  Our program at October’s meeting was the presentation of our annual ornament.  This one was designed by Sherri H. and is absolutely beautiful.  Members got their kits and were able to get started on stitching their ornaments.

Thankfully Codi was back to take photos, so there actually are some (since clearly I cannot be trusted to do my job).  Here are what our members brought for show & tell…

Elaine D. – Shared Stitches – Designed for the 2018 Shepherd’s Bush Retreat Shepherd’s Bush, With Thy Needle and Thread, Chessie and Me, Plum Street Samplers, Jeanette Douglas Designs, and Blackbird Designs

And that’s it for October!  In November our program will be the finishing on our annual ornament, taught by Sherri H.  We will also be voting on the board members for 2020.  Happy Halloween!
