Robin, so sorry about the monthly stitch groups! I wasn’t involved in any of those because we don’t have any in this area. I did find a Kansas Stitchers FB group and they were going to meet in Manhattan in May (40 miles from me) so I was looking forward to that. I’ve also never been to a stitching retreat. Our family has still gotten together with grandparents/cousins, on a fairly regular basis so that has been nice for everyone.
