Flosstube #77 has just been recorded and I'm just hoping my scratchy voice is strong enough for you all to hear. Stitch Con Weekend A was amazing - and I am hoping to put a slightly different spin on the event, by describing some of the events that are part of the weekend.
My theme this week is pink and red used in my designs, and I share a number of my models with you.
The patterns which were shown this week included:
Alphabetique
Bluebirds of Happiness
Eliza's Sewing Smalls
Twas the Night Ornament Books I - IV
A-Round France
An Elegant Alphabet
A Joyful Purpose
An Ode to Britatin
The Rabbit Alphabet
French Country Hobby Horse
French Country Swans
French Flower Cart
Oooh La La
Renee's French Alphabet
Le Jardin Needlework Accessories
French Country Hot Air Balloon
Creative Country Girl - maker of bags and totes: Tammy Blalock: Tammyblalock.com

Judy, my husband and I have been sick as well, and also have the lingering cough, so I can definitely sympathize. Thanks for recording, and I hope you feel better soon. Thank you also for your Stitch Con recap. I have never been to a retreat of any kind and am so anxious to go to one. I always notice and admire your beautiful flower bouquets, it’s the first thing I look for when I tune in. I knew you must have an amazing yard. I just finished stitching Lina’s Pinkeep and need to fully finish. I struggled a bit with the one over one, but am so pleased with how it turned out. I’ve now started A Joyful Purpose, so it was fun to see you show that one today. I cannot thank you enough for all your beautiful designs and sharing your time with us on Flosstube.
