Here is another little tease. This is the most beautiful cabinet to date I think. Just wait until you see the whole thing. I am working just as fast as I can so it won’t be long. But here is a clip of part of the cabinet. Enjoy….

This is a little sneak peak at just one section of the Northwest Sampler Guild’s cabinet. I mentioned this class earlier in the blog and this cabinet will soon be complete and the details released to everyone that might be interested in taking this private online class. It will only be available through Northwest Sampler Guild.
This is just a little bit of home. And the tease begins. More to come soon. Now, if you have not already done so you need to trip on over to the Northwest Sampler Guild web site and check them out. I think you will like what you see. And, as they say here in California…I shall return.

I’m back. Finally!! I have been away for a long time now but I have been so busy. Spring has arrived in Valley Springs. Everything is looking so beautiful and green. I love the spring. But who doesn’t?
The class for the Mary Wigham Wardrobe is in full swing. There are a few seats left but we are out of almost all the supply kits. Everyone has such great ideas for what color to stitch their wardrobe. I can’t wait to see all the pictures. When the class is over I shall post pictures of the finishes in the Rewards forum on the message board. Yep, this wardrobe is worth $50.00 if it is completed by the time class is over. I figure that is a pretty good incentive to help the class members get their stitching done.
Now on to other things. Let’s see…..
1. I am working on a very special cabinet for the Northwest Sampler Guild in Washington. No it is not like the cabinets I have released so far. Would I do that to you…make something you don’t want. Be nice now… mahahahaaaa. Anyway, it is going to be a stitch along held privately on the JAT message board. I will be going to Washington to give a finishing class so if you are interested it will be just a short while before every thing is finalized, and we will let you all know so you can sign up and/or join the guild if you are interested. Actually, you can go here Northwest Sampler Guild and check out some of their past classes. They do have some great classes and their newsletter is wonderful.
2. Now, speaking of newsletter. I will have one shortly. Moosie has the skeleton ready actually but I have no time to put it together to send out. It is next in line though so keep checking back so you can subscribe. I will try to keep it interesting. I plan to publish quarterly.
Hmmmm…I know I had a #3 to mention but I forgot. Geeeeesssss…I do a lot of forgetting lately. And misplacing. My new motto is, “Touch it – Lose it”. Really, I swear someone is playing tricks on me because sometimes I don’t even get up out of my seat and I can’t find something I had one minute ago. Darn kids…. 
Can’t hurt to blame them.
Ok, I’m done for now. I shall try to get back very soon with something interesting to say. Don’t forget to check out the new shop if you have not done so yet. And I am going to go onto the message board and ask for ideas to add into the newsletter so if you have something you would like be sure to go visit the message board and let me know.
Thanks everyone. Take care. Hugs

Yep…I can hardly contain myself, I am so excited. Just a Thought is opening its new store doors soon. I am becoming a blog, forum and store. Yep, cart and all. Moosie has been working her “fingers” off (ha fooled you) and while there will undoubtedly be a lot of little fixes that you will all find, I think we will get it all ironed out very quickly. Wow, this has been hard work. I am very excited about it.
So be ready…we move into our store in minutes or hours….any time now. And as soon as the store opens you can all order your spot for the Mary Wigham Wardrobe class. I know you have all be wondering where and what is going on with it but this has been the delay. I wanted you all to sign up on your own. When the class is full it will not allow any more registrations. I have not gotten the wardrobe kits ready yet but we have plenty of time for that. The decorative fabric will be so limited I probably should not even offer it but I know it is very difficult for some of you to get supplies so we shall talk about it later, in class. OK, I’m off to go check with Jo and see how the grand opening is coming along.

Please note: I am receiving a lot of interest in this design and I wanted to let you all know that I will be adding some definate information for everyone in a couple days. I am sorry for the delay but Moosie is doing some major updating of my blog right now and I just cannot add anything until it is complete. Please be patient with me and check back in a couple days. Thank you all so much.
A Tribute to Mary Wigham and all the girls of Ackworth school. Can you imagine how surprised Mary would be to find out that she has a wardrobe. Well, kind of. I love the wardrobe. I think Mary would too.
I will post all the information regarding this wardrobe on my Designs page as soon as possible. For now I will give you just a minimal of information.
This will be released as a private class in PDF sections on my JAT Message board. The class will be limited in size but don’t worry if you don’t get in on this one as I will probably have another class approximately a year after this first class is completed. The cost of the class includes the stitch design and finishing class which will be released in monthly sections. I will have a very limited kit available which will include the stitching linen, decorative fabric and silk satin ribbon. Ok, enough talk about it….lets see Mary Wigham’s Wardrobe closet.
The cost of the class will be $55.00 with $5.00 going directly to Ackworth School towards the preservation of the Ackworth School samplers. I shall post more about the class kit and the cost once I post the design page. Thanks everyone.

Hmmmmm….is Nashville a holiday. I have thought and heard so much about it lately that I am thinking it must be a holiday. So…HAPPY NASHVILLE everyone.
This year I sent two new designs to Nashville. I have been patiently waiting to release them here on my site. I have not added them to my design page as yet. I have been busy getting the Mary Wigham design completed and had no time to take care of these Nashville babies. But I will be posting the MWW design a little later today and I shall try to get all three new designs and information about them on my design page as soon as possible.
So now…here are my Nashville releases. They are available from me as a PDF or paper. Your favorite needle work shop can get them in paper format only.
This is “Savannah” Just A Box; #2 in the collectible series.
As usual you are encouraged to pick your own color linen and fibers but my choices are listed for you, just in case. My next design is honoring my Dad. I stitched this knowing I wanted to frame it… so I give you the design as it will look in my shadow box. “In My Father’s Name”.
I hope you like my new releases and even if you don’t I shall be back shortly with the Mary Wigham release. Hugs
