Road Trip to Stitch Shops!

Hello Friends~

Yesterday, JoAnn R, Joann H, Rhonda and myself took a trip to pick up some framed pieces. In Strongsville, OH we went to Just Stitching where their favorite framer, Bonnie works. JoAnn had 3 finished and JoAnn H had one. As you can see by the pictures, Bonnie does a wonderful job, and she has many choices to choose from. We stopped and ate at some cool cafe, the food was delish! Then we traveled to another shop, Crafty Ewe, and let me tell you, the fabric selection they have at this shop is like no other, I was in fabric heaven!!! I got some linen and also a roll-a-frame, I have been wanting to try one for a while. I usually hand hold when I stitch, but sometimes use a q-snap, and the bigger samplers are sometimes hard to hand hold~

Hope you have a Great Week~
