Sampler Guild of Rockies Meeting Report

Yesterday was the Sampler Guild of The Rockies last meeting for the year. We meet on the second Sunday of the month Sept to May from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Since the second Sunday in May is Mother's Day, we meet on Saturday in May. This is also the time we celebrate the Guild's Birthday and have a Pin Cushion Exchange.

Here is the pin cushion I made. It is from The Prairie Schooler Book No. 115, Pins and Needles (c) 2004. I changed the head of the pins by using beads.


I made this label for the gift bag....


....here is the card I made to go with it. 
Inside I wrote the design information for the recipient and signed my name.


In return I received a lovely Flowers pin cushion (a Lizzie and Kate design) stitched by Nancy P. Didn't she do a great job? I just love it, especially the ribbon edging!!


 She also included this cute little potted flowering plant. It fits right in with my other house plants!


We also had a very fun make and take and most folks were able to finish it during the meeting, me included. 


This button scissor fob, was very fun to and not too difficult. It is based on a necklace the lady who taught us this made and everyone admired. 

As always, everyone received a birthday gift in honor of the Guild's birthday!


 by In the Company of Friends.



I think that is the report for now. 

Happy Stitching!!!!

Beautiful stitching and finishing here from you and your friends.

I love the little Company of Friends chart booklet too.
