I'm continuing to enjoy time early each morning with Elizabeth Mears. As you can see her sampler is nearly done, but my stitching time is very limited these days with getting ready for Nashville. Sorry that I didn't have time to give "her" a light pressing to make her more presentable.
I'm spending several days this week preparing the Miss Trenner special edition boxes. I'm inspecting each set and then putting the lining fabric, ruler, and sheep waxer inside the smaller box which then goes inside the larger one. Whew--it is a larger job than I anticipated.
Here is what I have so far...
and this is what still awaits me....
I think I have my work cut out for me. What do you think? (Sorry I'm not a better photographer.)
Thank you to all you have asked about my mother-in-law. Her pneumonia and other medical problems have not gotten any better in the past week.
Well, I guess I've had long enough of break. ..back to those boxes.

That is one amazing sampler Ellen! I would say you do have your work cut out for you. You'll be happy when stitching time returns, won't you?
Hope all goes well with your MIL Ellen, always a worry.
Gorgeous sampler!!, beautiful building on it too.

Elizabeth M. looks fabulous Ellen. Oh my, you really do have your work cut out for you getting ready for Market.
I wasn't interested in stitching E.Mears until I saw your WIP - it's gorgeous! Thanks for posting the great picture, you've convinced me that I have to order it.
Wow Ms. Mears is just gorgeous! Hope you have a super successful market, I've already pre-ordered Ada Mary :-).
