    Scrappy Stitchers Link Party #55

    We got such a lovely variety of projects in last month's Scrappy Stitchers Link Party, and I can't wait to see what you share this month! Remember, it does not have to be your own design, just your own work. In fact this month's most clicked was not an original design. The most clicked link in last month's link party was this Türkises Netz-Kleid (turquoise mesh dress) from Häkelfieber. Isn't it gorgeous? The pattern she used is called Romi Summer Dress and is from By Katerina.

If you've ever been to one, you know how much fun we have when we all get together! A couple of years ago, I started taking notes of some of the silly, fun, or outlandish things I hear at the conference. My first list was a hit, so I've made it an annual tradition.
