This is a pic of myself and a wonderful new friend, Lolita Newman ,that I met at Quilt Market, She is the designer of the Stitchin' by the River patterns, The patterns are historical/Civil War era embroidery designs stitched in black thread. She has done so much research and includes facts and even recipes from that time period. So of course I needed many of her patterns for my shop, since this is my favorite part of history. I wanted to give her a sm. token of my graditude,so I gave her some of the cotton that I grow,so she may use it in her booth displays! See more of her work on her blog- stitchinbytheriver.blogspot.com
