Toronto Retreat for Stitchers


If you have been charmed by the Olympics' Canadian location, you might want to take a little jaunt to Toronto in late April to the stitching retreat that Gitta's is sponsoring.  There will be two classes offered, one of which is included with your registration, and you can buy the other class project if you like.  The retreat organizers have the latest updated information listed on their blog.

Gitta's shop is well-known for their charted silk gauze designs.  I have a gorgeous charted violets piece in my stash, waiting until I have a hankering for another tiny project.  If I could, I'd love to go since a dear friend is helping to organize the retreat.  I know how organized she is and what fun she is planning, so I hope you will consider a little trip to Toronto to see the best Canadian stitching has to offer!

Loved opening up my Needlepointers magazine and seeing the Chilly Hollow stitch!

The new one must be in the mail (I hope). Can't wait to see it. Jean Hilton's CH stitch has been in Needlepointers, too. Jim Wurth used a variation on his Xanadu piece in 2009. It's a lovely stitch. THANK YOU, JEAN, wherever you are.

You are inspiring, Jane!

Thanks, Donna. That's a nice thing to say.
