I am having a wonderful adventure cruising with Sue Spargo, she is a truly kind and gentle instructor. But, she is not the only instructor in our class! There are also Stitch Instructors from local quilt shops who are here to enjoy and learn so they might enhance their own local “Sue” classes. Which for me... means I have lots of help!

Also, several stitchers are working on other projects...one of which is on my list! A needle roll. The pattern and kit is available on SueSpargo.com. But, how one chooses to stitch it can be totally individual.

 

The latest Creative Stitching book by Sue was laced out by Sue’s son, Jason, who stitched each one in the book to make sure a new stitcher would be able to use the book effectively. And, I have to say...I love it!

 

Stitchers/quilters are the most sharing people in the world. I have said it before, and I will continue to shout it from the top of my stash, that quilting is a craft that is rooted in giving and caring. Thus my fellow stitchers are so generous in sharing how they create a motif. One of my classmates shared how she made this frog!! I fell in love with the little frog the first time I saw him and was able to recreate him on the needle roll I am working on.

 

I may not finish everything I brought, but I sure am learning a lot and know that retreats on land or sea with Sue will continue to be on my wish list.
