Another birthday

We are going to our son Matthew's for dinner to celebrate Ryan our grandson's birthday as well as Matthew's birthday and mine.It should be lots of fun.
I got a message from a lady who was looking at my webshots pictures and wanted to know where I got a pattern for one of my cross stitch designs. I bought that one in San Francisco at one of the shops on the waterfront. Many years ago, have no idea what the shop is called . I have to root out the design to see whose it is. The picture is Morey Mansion and is a lovely old Victorian home. I did three of them from that shop and love them all.
I know that the patterns were not thrown out by me. And I hope not by Ray. He wouldn't do that unless he asked me first.
So maybe I can help her with the company who designed the patterns. I haven't done cross stitch for many years but recall really enjoying it. Cross stitch is so portable , you can take a small bag anywhere, not like quilting which requires yards of fabric, tables for cutting, sewing machines, needles, cutters, threads and other things. I am stuck here at home for the style of quilting I do which is the reason I rarely take classes . There is too much stuff to carry. Although the class I am taking now with Kathy is not too bad as the shop owner allows me to use one of his machines so I do not have to take one with me. Thank goodness.
Take care all.
The photo of Morey Mansion is going up in a minute.:>)
