We then went to the Hershey Gardens...we also scoped out the posh Hotel Hershey. The gardens were huge and full of roses (my mom is the big gardener in the family...here photoed sharing her knowledge with 2 daughters sworn never to try to grow roses LOL). After the Gardens and lunch we went to the outlets, Hershey has just a tiny outlet mall but we stopped by the important stores (scrapbook, Pfaltzgraff, and the one cross stitch store in the area...the Cross stitch Corner). We were tired after all that so we headed to Friendly's for Ice cream then back to the hotel to stitch. We got deli dinner late at night and stitched too long into the night.
Sunday we took our time leaving, and stopped by the cross stitch store again to get a few more things (never enough) I left around noon and was home by 630.
The Stash Haul:
Ok lettsee if I can remember
Fabric: Snow Squall from Crossed Wings, distressed 32 ct Belfast Linen, and a pretty rose colored 32 ct linen.
Patterns: Quaker Diamond by Hillside samplings, Nine patch by Bright Needle, Seaology by Trilogy, Five Pumpkins and House welcome by JBW designs, Cat sampler by HIH, and Hug a tree by Bent Creek.
Kits: I totally broke down and bought 3 tie one on kits from Pine Mountian Designs: Ho ho ho, Making Friends and Trick or Treat (which I finished there!)
Other: JCS ornament 2005 issue, a bell pull for my autumn exchange, GAST in Wood smoke and Cinammon, and WDW in Brick.
Over all a pretty good trip. Next year I hope to stay in the lodge and actually meet Cathy (who I hear was found by Jo after all....see Jo I told you she wasn't imaginary) and spend some time meeting new people.
