Cheers, Anne —– I just received my brochure on HOCS.  Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend this year.  :-(  Being a military wife I fell in love with the ABC – Land of the Free band sampler that Marth Beth Lewis will be teaching.  Is there any way at all to get this pattern without being there to attend the class??  I admit I’m ignorant here!  hehehe  I usually do not do band samplers, never even look at the patterns.  But, this one jumped out of the page at me!  Like I said, guess it’s being a military wife that does it!  I would appreciate any info here!  Thanks!

Martha Beth’s needlework pages start at <www.serve.com/marbeth/needlework.html. Click on Tips and Tricks and scroll down to the bottom of the page for the link to her 1999 HOCS classes. HTH, Nan Evelyn

Sometimes quality is more important than quantity.

IIRC CATS has more than just needlework.  Some of us are not interested in quilting, etc. Anne/NC E-mail response not expected but E-mail back delete the ".uk" at the end

I just put up the jpg of this piece, and it’s huge in physical size and therefore load-time; must fiddle with it, but if you want to see it it’s at www.serve.com/marbeth/flag.jpg.  PLEASE take your stitching with you; it’s a slow load; I must work on size and reload.  mb – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -(JALWms) writes: Is there  a site to go to to see this sampler??  As a "former" military wife and a soon to be military wife once again I would like to see it and add to my stash WIPs: Why God Made Little Boys-Stoney Creek The Maritime- Dimensions ( Christopher Rhoads) Baby Morning Light quilt -WonderArt Sea the Light- Elsa Williams( needlepoint)

Even though I’m not from the US, I think the sampler looks great!  I really adore the fireworks Just one thing, though – I think the link may have gone from your webpage to your HOCS class listings (heart99) – all I get today for some reason is a blank page when it loads up … thought you might want to know in case there’s a hiccup at your end. Hope to catch your ‘knot’ class … I’ve been terrified of doing french knots for years, so it’s time to overcome my fear and learn how to do them (and colonial knots). ) Cheers, Anne in NZ —–

Gee, SnowRat2, I think people can make up their own minds which show to attend- and isn’t it a good thing there are more shows so more people can attend one that is close to where they live?  After all, there are millions of people in this country (not to mention the foreign visitors…) who like to stitch and who might want to attend a stitching convention.  Somehow, I doubt they would all fit at just one, and what a crowded place that would be….

The slight    variations in color and texture enhance its    individual character and beauty and in no way    are to be considered flaws or defects.

    thank you Just one thing, though – I think the link may have gone from your webpage to your HOCS class listings (heart99) – all I get today for some reason is a blank page when it loads up … thought you might want to know in case there’s a hiccup at your end.

    hmmm!  thanks for the heads-up; it was ok this afternoon     but will check right away. Hope to catch your ‘knot’ class … I’ve been terrified of doing french knots for years, so it’s time to overcome my fear and learn how to do them (and colonial knots). )

    never fear. You will leave class knowing all four of them!     Or else I’ll come to your room at night and we’ll practice     doing them until you have them!  You are not allowed to     return home until you can do these knots, got that???!  mb

I just received my brochure on HOCS.  Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend this year.  :-(  Being a military wife I fell in love with the ABC – Land of the Free band sampler that Marth Beth Lewis will be teaching.  Is there any way at all to get this pattern without being there to attend the class??  I admit I’m ignorant here!  hehehe  I usually do not do band samplers, never even look at the patterns.  But, this one jumped out of the page at me!  Like I said, guess it’s being a military wife that does it!  I would appreciate any info here!  Thanks! Carrie Lee

Response:

Usually, if you pay for the class, the teacher will send you the kit.  It might be pricey for just a pattern, but email Martha Beth and ask her. http://www.serve.com/marbeth/index.html   This is her web site, so try there, you should be able to get her email from this site.  It’s a shame you won’t be able to take her class.  She’s a great teacher.

Is there  a site to go to to see this sampler??  As a "former" military wife and a soon to be military wife once again I would like to see it and add to my stash WIPs: Why God Made Little Boys-Stoney Creek The Maritime- Dimensions ( Christopher Rhoads) Baby Morning Light quilt -WonderArt Sea the Light- Elsa Williams( needlepoint)

Great to hear the brochures have been mailed out – I’ve sent a request that my brochure gets air-mailed out, as otherwise it could take up to 3 whole months to arrive in New Zealand … a bit late for me to book up courses  Fingers crossed it comes soon.  Mind you, that would mean spending every day in the merchandise mall – could be worse, ha-ha.
