And the Winner is....
After listing out the names of everyone that posted they wanted to be included in the draw to be the next in line to get the Traveling Pattern, I then assigned everyone a number. Then I went to the Random Number Generator site and got

So, congratulations to Jennifer of Sweet Pea Stitches you'll be the next one to join the sisterhood and stitch this wonderful design.
So without further delay, here is my finish
Now I just need to do the finishing. This was on 34 ct Legacy Linen in Devonshire Cream. It was a joy to stitch on, the only problem was that the white in some areas doesn't show real clearly. However, it shows a little better in real life, so I left it as was. I think it will come out a little more when I get a mat and frame for it as well. This was such a fun stitch, I hated to see it come to an end.
However, my new start of Joyful Summer by CCN is a delightful stitch as well. I've made a bit more headway on it now as you can see.
This is turning into a fast stitch. It looks more time consuming than it really is, as it is kind of a spread out design. In addition, the lovely overdyes it uses, so there are large blocks of color with no real color change needed, makes it move quickly. This one, with all its bright crazy colors just makes me smile to look at it.

Congratulations to Jennifer on being the next to join the sisterhood. I hope that my turn will come someday. Either that or I'll have to buy the pattern for myself and start a second sisterhood. ;) Your rendition looks great! I love how everyone has tailored it to their own color scheme. It's wonderful to watch!

Hi Sue,
So the Sisterhood chart is on the
move again. Happy stitching to
Jennifer.
Your version of the design is
beautiful Sue. The blue thread
you used for the dress looks so
pretty. So, how are you going
to finish it off??
Joyful Summer is coming along
and looking fantastic. This is
such a pretty design, and a
little different from the usual
stuff that CCN and LHN put out.
I've got it to stitch someday
too, and so am watching those
who are stitching it first with
great interest.
What a lovely little cat Isis
is. Isn't it a pain when you
get poked and prodded awake at
some ungodly hour because kitty
wants some attention.
Last night Rupert was digging
at the blankets with his front paws. Guess one of us moved
their foot or something and
it woke up his dormant hunting instincts. Either that or he was bored. Anyways, I slid my foot
over under the covers and goosed him and he jumped a foot! It was
hilarious! Revenge is sweet!!
Your Stitch collection is so
cute. I'm afraid that we all
have our own soft spots for
stuffies. I've got a pile of
bears, rabbits and cats that
I tell people are for decoration.
Well, they are...sort of.
Good luck with the new camera.
Oh look...it's blue!! How about
that!
Cheers!!

I love Joyful Summer too, it joined my stash just a few weeks ago. Can't wait to get started at it!
Congrats to Jennifer on being the next for the travelling pattern.
Your finish of it is just fantastic. Love that blue!
