Finally, some wonderful weather on a Thursday! Today, my quilt guild, the Mountain Laurel Quilt Guild, is starting our summer sessions of "Stitching on the Green".

| Early spring on the Wellsboro Green |
We started these informal gatherings last summer to coincide with the Wellsboro Growers' Market, which is located every Thursday afternoon one block from the Wellsboro Green. Guild members bring their hand-stitching projects (quilting/knitting/embroidery/whatever) and spend time enjoying the outdoors and oohing and aahing over each others' projects. After a couple of hours, we head on over to the market to pick up some delicious locally-grown and made goodies. I'll bet the strawberries sell out in minutes!
I don't have any quilting projects that need hand work, so I'm taking along a ruffle scarf WIP. I'm not a knitter, but I can knit these. Easy, peasy!

Sounds like a great idea...did you take any pix of you and your friends sewing in the park?
Anya - what fun!! That is such a lovely idea and the little park in Wellsboro is so charming.
What a great idea. I'm sure passers-by enjoy seeing all of you work, and it promotes quilting (or knitting). Very nice. enjoy
I'm sorry I have to miss out on the fun this week. Maybe next week...
