The local guild - Tudor Rose Sampler Guild - has welcomed me into their guild in which I have been participating for about 5 years. They are a great group of women and I enjoy sharing this hobby with them. As Julie stated "it is wonderful art that binds us".Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05075509390135085024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385848468383267674.post-50835449522230308512009-07-07T21:36:18.376+01:002009-07-07T21:36:18.376+01:00I think it is wonderful that men stitch and love t...I think it is wonderful that men stitch and love the art as much as women! I would think we should welcome them into our stitch groups or perhaps there are men out there that would like to form their own group(s). Good luck and keep stitching!

I remember rugs he had made while on board ship during his long career and he was also knew how to do macrame. In those days, the 20s and 30s, a sailor didn't take his family with him so my mother had few memories of him when she was a child.Gilliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13039155678428883554noreply@blogger.com
