What am I stitching on currently?

Let us see.

Mystic by Ruth Dilts which I need to do some progress on as our class
is Sunday.

Night Flight by Amybear. I think I rubbed my elbow raw on the table
while stitching on this on Monday. Yuck.

And because yesterday was guild meeting and we were doing a class by
Betsy Morgan, her All Year Square Pin Cube, I pulled out my unfinished
Betsy project from last year. A morning glory piece over one on 32ct.
(side note: Betsy's designing name is Willing Hands. Her kits are
only available through classes. If you google, you may find some
amazing photos. Or not. depending on your taste. I think she's
brilliant.)

And, one last one, by Monkeyworks - Under the Sea. I may this info
wrong as I tend to rename things in my head.

You know Donna, you are very dangerous poster....

So - first: do you know of a website for Betsy Morgan? I found the All Year
pin cube and want to see more

I want an Amybear - Bouquet
I want the Ruth Dilts cubes/shapes. Any of them, all of them

The Monkey Works page seems to be down - if she is in the UK



I agree she's dangerous. I could have lived a long and happy life not
knowing about Betsy Morgan, but now I'm doomed to discontent until I get
my hands on at least one of her charts! VBG

sue

I went a lookin' - could not find anything but pictures of Betsy Morgan
class projects. Not even her own website.

I think she's been to Celebration of Needlework before. Maybe she will again
and you could come up...

Donna said she only sells through her classes, not in stores/online.

Sue


I, once and only once, found someone selling a class kit - and it wasn't on
ebay but a semilocal swap group.

Altho' I don't usually do kits, I couldn't resist this one - It's
called Lofty Living by Bucilla (a bunch of birdhouses) ... It took me
a good 1 1/2 days to match the floss to DMC before I could start it -
I hate not knowing what floss I'm working with - and don't ya just
love it when they say - lt. pale grey, lt. grey, pale grey, lightest
pale grey, grey, medium grey blah de blah You'd think it was a crime
to tell us what floss they're using so we could convert to what we
like to use. Oh well, no one yanked my arm to buy it, did they? :-)

If you ever do come across a resource for the kits, please, please share.
I would love to attempt one.

Here a conversion chart that's right from Dimension's web site. I think
they may even be using DMC thread in their kits.

Y'know, you're local enough, Sue, that you could do one of her classes. You
could probably e-mail Betsy and find out when/where she's teaching and just
c'mon down.....

Ruth's stuff is pretty available. We can give you the number of the local
shops that carry a lot of her stuff. She has a freebie up on the Rainbow
Gallery site. Ruth is local here now - and reps for Rainbow Gallery.

Amybear - she sells directly off her website IIRC.

I know I've seen Betsy Morgan teaching for EGA chapter workshops as
well. I am hoping we can get her signed up one day for our chapter -
the few photos I've seen are delicious!

MelissaD

Honestly, I believe that most of Betsy's teaching is for EGA chapters, or I
think she's done some Sampler group things. Her work is beautiful.

Well, keep your eyes open.

But, I believe BM will be in Nashua this fall

http://www.celebrationofnw.com/seminars.php

And the course, kits, evening round robin and all food for two days (hotel,
not sure) is $430 and not half bad.
