Hi, Everyone —
Today the SOTM group met at our new recurring day to stitch “A Different View” by Kurdy Biggs. We are working on the borders and hope to have them done and be ready to start on our first octagons next month! Two of our stitchers were out with health issues, but hopefully we will ALL be together next month.
Here’s our progress at the end of today. Unfortunately, Robin had to leave before we remembered to take a picture.

A Different View
Diane: Coral
Dee: Black
Sue C: Aqua
Mary: White
Rosie: Yellow
I hope some of the participants will chime in with information about their “View”. Mine is the one on yellow canvas. You can see my color assortment in my earlier post about my shopping spree on the way to Woodlawn! You can tell that I am the only one who had to get all her jessicas done before moving on to the rest of the border stitches. I have not used any metallic thread yet — so it’s not as bling-y as the others.
We have very much enjoyed seeing the stitching of A Different View in the SBANG May meeting notes. Dottie’s hints in their newsletter are helpful and we all made sure we saw them before we got started. We also think that Belle was so clever to use the canvas samples to make ornaments with the different octagons. We also found a beautiful, completed “View” at needleartnut.
Sue introduced us to Trader Joe’s brownie mix which was a perfect complement to her snickerdoodles and chocolate chip cookies!
What a great way to spend a rainy afternoon!
Cheers, Rosie
