Pearls for Patty

As I think I've mentioned before hand stitching isn't a strong point of mine and as luck would have it the latest QB5 Round Robin is a stitchery! hmmm... oh dear... well never mind...
and if you happen to be thinking it doesn't look that bad then let me just say you haven't seen the masterpieces the rest of the group have created! they were born to stitch, all of them, and stitch they have! oh dear... (again) well never mind...(again)

Margaret, I don't know where you get these silly ideas! For goodness sake, you know which end of a needle to thread! And you have somehow managed to make it go in and out of beads and fabric, very beautifully, I might add.

You are too modest. :)
