   I am in the wrong business! I would love to travel around and meet the people that you get to and also see the USA! The pennies are cute, thanks for sharing!

   I love to make up pennies for travel, easy to do in a car and all you need is black floss and a needle.

   Lisa,

   This was one of the projects you showed us in Hinsdale, IL. Really nice!! Thanks for all the helpful info while you were in Hinsdale, Il. I feel liked I picked your brain the entire time…lol. I tried to learn everything I could in one day, because you’re the best!!

   A big thank you to the Salt Creek Guild for having a non-member participate.

   Are they going to let you board the plane with that wicked needle in hand?

    We certainly enjoyed Lisa here in sunny Yuba City, CA. She shared with us a wonderful Trunk Show at our guild meeting and taught and inspired a lot of my friends the next day@class. Thank you, Lisa for coming. It was wonderful. I believe you made many new “Wool believers” out of the crowd.

    Lisa…..It looks like you are using different thread colors, even on the same penny. Do you have a general rule on which threads you use ?

    I’m new to wool applique and am already addicted. Have a pile of projects I can’t wait to start. Already own most of your patterns. Love your stuff.
