Dear Stitching Friends,

I enjoyed being in Plymouth for the Needlwork Guild of Minnesota's 'We The People Stitch' event. The members were kind and so talented! The guild was established in 1972 and encompasses a wide range of needlework techniques. I  was deeply impressed with the work of the members on display and the Crowne Plaza was an excellent venue.

Wish me luck tomorrow as I take my 2017 Lenovo desktop in to Best Buy and leave it with the Geek Squad. I appreciated the Windows 10 extension but living on borrowed time has been stressful and the nine year old technology has been limping along. I bought a shiny new Lenovo Yoga touch screen 16 inch lap top with special color features and lots of space for my stuff.

If all goes well, the professionals will back up the desk top on to a hard drive, then transfer my designs and documents into the new machine and save it all. 

I went ahead and sent the instructions and charts for my September 19 Scottish Castle Etui class off for printing yesterday...just in case.

Summer MiMi Camp is nearly over and my youngest grandsons will be in 4th grade and in 4-year old preschool soon. We have had a good summer. I admit that I am looking forward to getting my mornings back because it is time for me to focus on hosting my first self sponsored Zoom class and I need to get busy finalizing my projects for Mrs. Parkman's Academy of Needlework 2027 in England.

I will be posting my Minnesota In My Heart needle book and scissor sheath pdf soon so those who were not able to take the class can buy it. I will also introduce the 'We The People Patriotic Etui' and Margaret Hughes 1771 sampler reproduction in a Cissy's Gentle Pursuit Designs You Tube as soon as she comes back from framing.
 
Warmest regards,

Cissy
