She Made Us Laugh and Cry, Now She Needs Our Support

Coni Rich, known to many of us as the Spinster Stitcher, is in Stage Five Renal Failure, which means her kidneys are giving out.  She's facing dialysis eventually although she is on the list for a kidney transplant.  All this costs money, and she needs our help to pay the bills.  You can donate here.

Coni has a humor column in Needlepoint Now magazine and writes the humor blog, The Spinster Stitcher.   Any little bit helps keep the Spinster healthy and stitching.  Thank you.

Celebrity Stitching, "Southern Charm" Edition

The Spinster Sister was watching the premier of Bravo's "Southern Charm" last night and spotted one of the cast members needlepointing!

Here's the clip which Lynne found and posted on Needlepoint Nation (that's a Facebook Group about needlepoint).
