The Best Laid Plans, or What's In a Name?

Our local Blue Ribbon ANG chapter has planned an exhibit for an area library, showing examples of a wide variety of types of stitching.  We headed to the library this afternoon, with tote bags and roller bags loaded with stitched examples to choose from, and planning to spend several hours putting together our display.  Only to find out that the person in charge of library displays had neglected to tell the staff on site that we had permission to install our exhibit.  So, back home we went with our tote bags and roller bags.  We'll try again in October.

Here are a couple of examples of the things I will be contributing.


Jazz Square, a Blue Ribbon Chapter project, each of us selecting different colors

Winter Snowflakes, a free pattern from Caron Threads that was a project for CyberStitchers
As for what's in a name.  Our ANG area representative came from Chicago to give us our official charter as an ANG chapter.  Only trouble was, the charter listed us as the Bluebonnet Chapter, not the Blue Ribbon Chapter!
