One week Chicago!

My daughter and I got back from one week in Chicago. My husband started his new job last week and we joined him in his first week. It gave us a chance to explore the city and we went house hunting with a realtor as well for 2 full days. We have been looking in the Naperville area and saw some nice houses. In the coming weeks we will make a decision which one and hopefully move by the beginning of August.

One evening Laura picked me up to go to her LNS Inspired Needle (and my future LNS :-)) Cathy, the owner, has opened the shop last November and what a great shop it is. Lots of charts, threads and more threads and linens. She also has a monthly stitch-in evening which I definitely will join when I move! It was great meeting Laura and Cathy and my move to Illinois is less daunting now. Laura is planning on lots of stitching get togethers, shopping trips and eating burrito's and that sounds great to me!!!!! :-)

I will post some stitching updates in the weekend. I have started and finished the Blackbird Designs freebie 'Souvenir de France' and today is my Friday SAL on Miss Lila's Garden.
