Not much stitching, but a little stash

This has been a long week of module review for my course.  Today was a comprehensive review before practice exams start tomorrow.  I did have yesterday (Saturday) off and it was perfect since it coincided with the Knowledge and Needles Nashville open house.  First though I had to head to the Campbellford Legion to play darts with my hubby, my MIL, and another dart friend.  Unfortunately we didn't get to go on.  This did mean I could head to K&N quicker though.

I was greeted by Ann and then followed the laughter to find Christin, Tracey, Dani, and Sharon all stitching away.  I did a quick look at the new goodies and went back my car and grabbed my stitching bag.  I pulled my 4 seasons out, but didn't really get much done.  Beatrice also stopped in and although she didn't bring her stitching, she stayed around and chatted with us.
 
I ended up getting some nice patterns.  I had a crazy headache (stupid PA system at legion was malfunctiing)  and didn't feel like looking through fabric like I wanted to.
Below are the new pattens I got (pics stolen from net)
Ink Circles - Rosetta

Ink Circles - Nut Jobs

Ink Circles - Wild Berries

Ink Circles - Metamorphosis

JBW - French Country Strawberry
After we all settle up with Ann, the 5 of us (Dani, Christin, Beatrice, Tracey, and I) decided to go to the newly opened Lone-star for Dinner.  I guess a ton of other people also had that idea and it was going to be an eighty minute wait.  I DON"T THINK SO!  We decided to do Montana's instead.
After, at Dani's suggestion we split a Mile High mud pie. I had not tried this desert before, and I will have to say it was VERY GOOD.  Don't believe me?  Just look!

Well, back to review!  Other than my WIPocalypse check in this week, I don't think I will be posting until after my exam on Friday.  Have a great week everyone!

Sounds like it was a fun outing at Ann's. I'd hoped to go too but my son landed in for the weekend so that put a kink in my plans.
I love your new stash additions. They should keep you busy!
As for the dessert, well I really didn't need that so it's just as well I wasn't there. It looks so rich and yummy!

Nice Stash! I just completed Metamorphosis myself and it is at the framers already.
Good luck on the exam.
Happy Stitching
