September is half over, and we’ve been BUSY! We saw so many of you at Yorkfest and the Cultural Festival and we had a full house at our September embroidery class/party. So. Much. fun!!
I wanted to pop in and remind you about a couple more events and let you know we had to make a date change on our Paint Party.
PAINT PARTY DATE CHANGE
And are you ready for this one? We’re doing our September Paint Party on Saturday, September 28th 10:30 a.m. This adorable “Highland Cow – Moo…I Mean Boo!” door hanger will be a fun one to paint! You can register and save your spot for this event by purchasing the kit HERE. (This kit is available for shipping too, for all our non-local readers)!
And on September 26th, we’ll be part of the York Sip & Stroll from 4 to 8 p.m. You can get tickets at the Chamber office or online by clicking the image below.
PUMPKIN WOOD EMBROIDERY
You know I can’t send out an email without mentioning wood embroidery. We had SO much fun at the recent Party/Class night. 13 of us were in the DIY room, and it was such a joy to see all the embroidery happening. This is the kit everyone was working with:
You can get it HERE.
And then I had a fun idea about enlarging this design and using YARN to embroider it. Oh my goodness, it turned out so lovely, and I had to make it into a kit too.
Here is a photo of the two pumpkins together, so you can see sizing:
You can get the Large Pumpkin HERE.
And now I’m working on a large version of our Daisy Bouquet, but using Christmas colors on our beautiful dark wood. I did some of the embroidery on Sunday night, relaxing and listening to music. It literally is one of my most favorite things to do right now! This will eventually be a kit, once I tweak a bit more.
And that’s all the updates for today! Don’t forget – if you aren’t local, you can still craft “with us” – check out the website for tons of kits! Let us help YOU craft!
