Man is it ever raining here! And lightening. And thundering! In fact, I’m wondering just how smart it is for me to be even on the computer right now. The puppies, especially Jasper, are not happy right now.
The postman brought me my one and only, so far, Market purchase today. The Goode Huswife’s Book of Designs Vol IV. I’m ready to whip out some fabric and get stitching on more than half of the designs! 😆 I don’t recall seeing what was going to be in the book so I thought I would share the design names here: Priscilla Sharp 1821, Quaker Friendship Sampler, Quaker Marriage Sampler, 1809 Quaker Sampler, Quaker Four Corners, 1798 Quaker Sampler, Julia Iden 1804, Companion Quaker Christmas Tree Two, Anonymous Quaker Sampler, and The Little Red R Sampler.
This makes 3 of her compilations that I own now.
I’m totally in love with the picture of the girl on the front and would love to get my hands on a little larger version to frame for my house.
I called my LNS yesterday to see if she went to Market, and alas, she did not. She is willing to order for me what I want to see, with no obligation to purchase it if I don’t like it and I’m going to take her up on that offer if it doesn’t take too long for the order to be placed and received. I want to purchase local before I order online – and I told her this.
I just finished reading my current book and as soon as I hit ‘publish’ I’m off to stitch on Summer Queen.
If you are talking about Diana, I don’t remember her ever having gone to the Nashville market since I’ve been a regular at the shop (several years). I think Margaret has been a few times in the past, but not lately that I remember.
Nope, I’m talking about Vicki 🙂
Can’t wait to see you Saturday 🙂 🙂
What a nice offer from your LNS. I just ordered the few things from market that were must haves for me but didn’t get find too much that knocked my socks off.
I wasn’t too excited about the market releases this year. Saves me a lot of money I suppose!
I haven’t made any market purchases. I’m another not always used to order locally, rather than on-line, but now that I’ve moved to Texas, I still order from the same store, so even though not local, I’m still supporting the same brick & mortar store. I don’t even know if Linda went to market this year, as I haven’t physically been in the store since last May.
