1 The Official Digital News Magazine of The Stitchers Village The Stitchers VOLUME 2 - ISSUE 11 OCTOBER 2010 Voice TSV Halloween Scavenger Hunt Member Stitch-a-long Coming later in October TSV Exclusive Halloween Design from Glendon Place

2 From the Cover: Witches Hollow The Primitive Needle Halloween Ribbons CherryWood Design Studios Designer, Lisa Roswell, of The Primitive Needle generously donated a Witches Hollow chart along with an Annie Hyssop s Harvest Moon chart for TSV s Scavenger Hunt drawing prize in October. These two charts along with Halloween Ribbons, a limited edition chart from CherryWood Design Studios will be part of the grand prize drawing winner s goodie bag. Greetings! October has arrived, and along with it comes The Stitchers Village Scavenger Hunt! See page 3 for details. At the TNNA market in St. Charles, MO last month, some very kind designers contributed charts to the prize package for the Scavenger Hunt. I would like to take this time to thank them for their kindness. I must admit that I did not get the opportunity to visit with all the designers on site while I was there. It is a bit overwhelming to try to visit without interrupting when customers were with them and I did not always have the chance to return. It was a lot of fun, however, and there are lots of new things, so check with the TSV shops to see what new things they have added to their sites!! We will be hosting a Stitch Along on Halloween weekend in cooperation with Cheryl Granda of Glendon Place. She is designing a TSV exclusive Halloween design that will be available a little later in the month. She will then host a chat in the TSV chat room on Saturday, October 30th. (See page 5) Have a great October and beginning of Autumn!
