After the rough month we've had, AND finally finishing the wedding sampler (I'll post another pic of it when it's finished being framed!), I decided to treat myself to a bit of stashing. What a wonderful time I had!!! :) The hardest part was in deciding just how much (or how little), I could afford to stimulate the economy.
I settled on just a few "must-haves" - but I am SO happy with my choices. I got "Home of a Needleworker", "Bless This Home", Lizzie Kate's new "tea" designs, (I'm a shoe-in for anything tea!) and a cute Heinzit "Flip Flop" pattern that will be perfect in one of our powder rooms that has a "beach" theme. Unfortunately, I had to place an order for three other designs that were "out of stock" and some specialty flosses that I need - but hey, that will give me an excuse to go back and fondle some more when I pick up that order, right? Life is good!! :) :) :)
My needle is itching to stitch - so I'll keep this short! Thanks for the comments - I really appreciate your time and kindness! Also, keep up the lovely works on your blogs - I love visiting!!!!
Happy Stashing and Stitching!

Hi Sharon,
Thanks for visiting my blog!! and for taking the time to comment!! So sorry to hear about your Ian. What a blessing that his regular Pediatritian caught what was going on.
That's God's doing!!
Love your embroidery! I learned to embroidery when I was a little girl. Haven't done it in years. Bought a machine and it's in the repair shop. Maybe I should start back doing it by hand. Where do I start?? Where can one buy some unique pillow cases etc??
Hugs,
Jan
Great stash Sharon. Bet you can hardly wait to start these great designs.
Your wedding sampler is lovely. Congrats on the finish. Look forward to seeing the framed piece.
Oooohhh great stash. Most of those are on my wish list as well. I see wonderful stitching in your future. :)
