It was a fantastic day to join Ellen Johnson from Serendipity for a day-long stitch camp (in AC) because it was too hot to do anything else yesterday!
The kit arrived on Tuesday and was filled with lots of goodies. That Zee Zees was tasty.
We dove into 6 stitch families, and I earned my first badge as I used the day to stitch 3 rows of the first 3 stitches Ellen discussed.
Today, I earned 2/3 of a badge by finishing off both sides.
Besides teaching stitches, Ellen discussed which stitches combine well together. Very enjoyable day.
It’s 13 count canvas and I used DMC Perle #3 and Silk Lame Braid for 18 ct (about 3 and 1/2″ round).

I have thought about doing this class and after reading about your experience I may give that a shot. I read her blog and emails and enjoy her manner. Thought she would be an interesting teacher. How many more classes do you have?
