May Flowers

Last Tuesday evening, our  ANG  chapter invited Nancy Buhl of From Nancy's Needle to teach a project.  She brought May Flowers and the kit included this lovely music box to mount it in. 

It was a quick stitch, and I finished the stitching and "finished" it this evening. 

In case you hadn't heard, Nancy is retiring from retails sales and is closing her shop, The Needle and I, which is in Rockford.  I will miss that shop.  I didn't make it there more than once or twice a year, but she always had some great sales, and usually had the fibres I needed and couldn't find elsewhere.  Nancy will continue designing and selling her designs on the internet.

Beautiful job on finishing this lovely design. I love Nancy's designs and have stitched a couple of them.

We stopped off at Needle & I on the way to the Dells at the end of April. I always try to stop there when I'm on the way to MN of WI. A day or two later, I found out about the retirement / closing. Will miss that store :(
