I have an old blog that I kept for many years, The Preppy Pink and Green Puppy. I still post from time to time but thought I'd start a new, needlepoint only blog to keep up with all my stitching sisters.
You
may be asking yourself, what exactly is a stitching GRITS. Well, most
people know grits as the corn-based breakfast cereal. Southerns really
know what grits are- Girls Raised In The South. But there is a third
meaning. Girls Really In To Shooting. And that's me! The GRITS are a
group my shooting instructor started a few years ago to get women
interested in the shooting sports, particularly shotguns. My GRITS
friends love that I stitch and when we're away shooting together I
always have a canvas that I'm working on.
This
is me, stitching a belt while trapping at a tournament last fall. I had
broken my wrist (was in car accident) so I couldn't shoot which is why I
was trapping. It was a slow day so I was able to get some stitching
time in between shooters.
I promise to post more about stitching than shooting.
