The afghan turned out so gorgeously!

I love the TITLE of Justina's story, but seriously - I cannot with these summer camp scares. Despite having worked at a camp for six years, I am still a tinge freaked out by the darkdarkdark woods and vanishing children - as much as I was when I started as a seven year old (yes, my older sisters went to camp, so I got tossed in as a much-too-young bonus camper. Nepotism! Or something).

Way down on my Dumb Money list is a q-snap frame for embroidering bigger projects. I am still a rank amateur, of course, but I love doodling with thread and am in my Embroider Thrift Store Clothes era, so I know I'll get to bigger projects eventually. I can't wait to see your finished project!

It's been a heckuva start to 2024 so far, but we're upright and taking nourishment, so can't complain...

That Camp Scare. I don't know if I can read it even though I want to.

Are you a fellow embroidery maniac?? Woohoo! I have never attempted one of those full coverage monsters. Instead I have 20 different projects, the monster being a 17th century style casket. https://thistle-threads.thinkific.com/
