Susan has started a blog (here) so wander over and welcome her to blogland. Susan runs Hanging By a Thread, a London-based company which sources all those stitching bits and bobs not generally available in the UK. She also runs great classes with well-known teachers - Lauren Sauer of Forget Me Nots in Stitches is visiting in September to teach two delightful projects - Red Rabbit Needlebook and A Token of Friendship and CA Wells is here on the weekend of 14 and 15 November to teach not only her Nantucket Cottage & Lobster Trap Pincushion but also her incredible Chocolate Box with Truffle Pincushion and Chocolate Fob. All classes are advertised under 'Class Schedule' on the Hanging By a Thread website (here).  

I've stitched a bit more on my Dutch Band Sampler and will post an update photo tomorrow when, hopefully, I will have done some more!

Not much else to report so ...

thanks for visiting

Take care
