I went to the Heirloom Stitchers meeting at the Provinces branch of the AA County Library tonight and we had a good showing for a summer month. Kim and Kathleen both brought giveaway items and I took Times Remembered from my trade album to Kim. I picked up the March/April and May/June 1991 and the May/June 1992 issues of Better Homes & Gardens Cross Stitch & Country Crafts magazine, the April 1997 issue of BH&G Cross stitch and Needlework magazine, the 1988 CS&CC Keepsake Calendar, Leaflet 222-Quick Kitchen Projects by Leisure Arts, and Countable Jewelry by Janice Shirley from our stash giveaway piles this evening. I accepted the three magazines as a trade from Kim, so I was quite pleased she happened to bring them this evening. I've been trying to fill in my collection of CS&CC magazines because I love the designs. The only magazine I like that is now in publication is The Gift of Stitching. None of the others have more than one or two designs I would ever care to stitch.
Our meeting had alot less stitching going on this month. It seems I wasn't the only one that hasn't been in the mood to stitch. Carol B and Kim left around 8pm and the rest of us sat and chatted without doing any stitching for the remaining half hour. I only did a little bit of stitching on Golden Puppy because I forgot my working copy of the chart and kept losing my place on the original chart that is unmarked.

Your meetings sound like so much fun. Not only do you get to stitch (if you feel like it) but you get to sit and chat with fellow stitchers/friends. I have that Keepsake Calendar and it's in pieces. Back in the day, I stitched quite a bit from that particular calendar. Now, I have it safely stashed in my box for fear it will just completely fall apart. LOL
