Hey, guys! So, who get's the "World's Worst Blogger" award for the month of May? ME!! I've done a pretty cruddy job of keeping up on things lately. I've been feeling a bit "blah" lately and my poor blog and etsy has suffered for it. Thankfully, I've still being pretty productive with other things though. New regiment in effect, hoping it'll make a difference around here. Thanks for sticking with me guys!
Even though it's a bit overdue, I still need to tell you about the Stitching Party with the girls! It was seriously the best weekend. I got the opportunity to catch up with old friends and get together with others for the very first time, it was amazing.
To bed super late and up way too early, we headed out for adventures. The guy to a boring symposium, me to a craft party- yay! My gal pal, Josci, and I met up with Katy and Maureen of Sew Lovely Embroidery and Lisa of A Cuppa Tea with Me! It was so great because we've been online stitchy pals forever now but this was the first time we got together.
Can I tell you, Katy and Maureen totally spoiled the heck out of us. Check out the sweet decorations, it's it darling?! (I stole this photo from Sew Lovely's flickr, it's chock full of gems like this.) There was a ton of yummy food, tea, champagne...everything a girl could ask for!
They even gave us the cutest goody bags, I told you- spoiled. Check out all the cute loot I got:
We stitched, we bitched. Traded tips and quips. All in all, we had a great time. Here's all us girls together. Yeah, I'm inadvertently giving you guys a glimpse of my bra...leopard nonetheless. Classy, huh? Someday I'll get it together.
It was a gorgeous day, the weather alone would have made the weekend fabulous. Beautiful, isn't it? I feel so lucky that I got to spend such a lovely day with great people.
So, can you guys see why I had such a great time? Thought so. Tons of stitching lately, so lots to come. Stay tuned. See you soon :)

You were in the city???
I'm on the Delta. Small world.
Looks like a great time was had by all!
Yeah, I sure was. I actually live pretty close by in Santa Rosa. That's crazy that you are so close, we should plan another stitchy party soon. You should come.
We had such a great time! I loved every minute of it.
Will it count if I am not a good stitcher?? LOL

Regena- Don't worry, everyone has to start somewhere! I'm going to host one soon, just trying to pick a good time. You're totally welcome, however, I should warn you- most of us cuss like sailors in real life, lol :)
I should warn you, my cussing consists of " gosh and darn it" and "bite me" and "gee whizzzzzzz"
Once in awhile you'll get a "holy mackerel" and i " I could just spit!" Also, the occasional Star Trek?wars comment. :-)
