My first time blogging..

Posted on February 5, 2012 at 0:40 5 Comments

Hello .. I have been enjoying these pages for about a week. I live and work in small communities in Saskatchewan, Canada and do not regularly have access to a stitching group. I am very grateful for the company, encouragement and inspiration I have gotten on this site.  I am not  totally comfortable or skilled  on the computer and have not yet figured out where to post pictures or comments. I have been very excited to participate in the TAST challenge. I have been a stitcher for many years…

Dear Susan,

Thank you for your nice comments on the completion of my TAST-2012 sampler! It has been a busy few weeks for me with lots of teaching and a knitting and stitching show. This week will see a lot of catching up and some creation of new ideas for future courses and workshops.

Have a nice day, Jessica

Have a nice day, Jessica

thank you Susan for commenting on my Dancing in the Dark. I have enjoyed watching your creative examples of all the stitches.  I am back from having the first cataract done, the second next week, so I will have some catching up to do.

Thanks for the kind words Susan.  I'm very new to this site & haven't quite figured it out yet. The faces I posted are smallish...originally thought they could go on clothing or expand to something else.  I can't get pictures from my website to come up (apple & mobile me issues) to show a better idea of the size.  I'm anxious to start checking out everyone's work.  I'm sure this site will be a great source of inspiration.  I look forward to seeing your work & keeping in touch.

Hello Susan, and thank you so much for the friend request and lovely message.  I have no idea what to call myself...............LOL........  I'm a stitcher who loves all sorts of fibres!!!  I just enjoy experimenting and learning from others, as well as take a lead from the natural world.  I love the work you are posting, and look forward to more.  This is a very lovely site, lots of creative and sharing people.

I'll do you a good evening as well, then! I very much enjoy seeing al the embroidery from all over the world. And reading the nice comments and well wishes from others. I am looking forward to the pebble thing as well. They look fun to do! But, for the rest of the week I will be off to the dutch stitching show. So no online me for the rest of the week!

Have a nice week, Jessica
