What's New?
Soul Stitcher is back on the blog(ck).  After a year's hiatus of not-so-regular blogging, I'm trying my hand at it again.  I may share anything from my mommy moments to what's on my needles and hooks to real news about the magazine.  I'm sure I'll even throw in a Black Purl reader surprise now and then.  I hope you'll visit often.  Any graphic artists out there?  I guess I need a button, huh?
