"DESIGNS THAT REFLECT OUR
AMERICAN HERITAGE"

Welcome to my blog. I'm probably very much like all of you who love the needlearts. My life revolves around family, friends, home and all things that help to make for a more contented life. When time allows; cooking, gardening, decorating, and collecting are my joys. I look forward to sharing all of these things with you. I also hope to keep you up to date on what is going on at Homespun Elegance, in regard to the needlework designs and the "Plain & Fancy Wares" that we offer.

Wishing you "Many Happy Stitches".

Beach Woes

Well, guess where Hollis and I are suppose to be Friday -
Nags Head, North Carolina.  


Guess where Hollis and I
will not be on Friday.  I cannot believe this!!  We have
so looked forward to a few days away before the end
of summer.  She has not been to the beach for two
years and is having a severe case of beach withdrawal
and I just need a serious break from work.
Luckily we were able to postpone our arrival until
Saturday, hoping that Earl will be well beyond the
outer banks by then.  Wish us, and everyone 
in the path of Earl, lots of luck and a little bit
of sand and sunshine.

Also, I will be announcing the recipient of my
first "give away" this evening.  Good luck
and stay tuned.

Many Happy Stitches,
Sandra

  4. Oh we LOVE the beach!!! We went to Nags Head last summer and those Duck Donuts were fabulous ... awesome sand and relaxing ... the beach is THE place to be. Earl is a scary storm - be safe and hope you get some your feet in the sand soon.

  10. We got chased out of Wrightsville Beach in Wilmington, North Carolina when Hurricane Fran hit! The winds were unbelievable, and everyone was taping windows - very scary!

    Where did you get the wonderful pattern Beachy Keen?
