Thx. I won't be getting over this one for a long time, if ever.

New start and progress as of last night...

I think I'm addicted to petite needles now. The regulars feel weird after using them.

Those scissors are really cute!

I must be trying to bury myself in stitchy stuff because my world is falling apart. THat's what I came up with this morning. ANother couple trips to Joann's, and took advantage of sales and cash back online. I'm waiting on fabric for the winter snowglobe and owl clock patterns, and have some coming ...

Hi from Northern California.

I got the cutest Wrendale Owl coaster and card, a Delft Blue Scottish bookmark, dmc Coloris kit w/a few var. threads for it, and the biggest chocolate bar I've seen in a long time. lol Thanks, Nicola!

I've been shopping....

Joann's is having big sales and coupons...



These are from Etsy or Ebay...

I'm working on getting rid of a stack of patterns, too, but nobody seems to be interested in them. lol

I'm going with, Do what makes you happy. I stitch because I love the process, the feel of needle and thread, making and sharing pretty things, and it helps me feel better and deal with life. Shopping, collecting, creating, thinking about and finding new projects are all a part of it in my book. Yes,...

It got here today! Nice surprise to come home to on a not so happy day. I'm so excited! Gonna have to hide it/have my mom hold it so I don't open it! LOL I can't believe it got here so fast. Thank you, NIcola!


Also, I mailed Carole's gifts this morning.

And yes, I agree with you that Bothy Threads put those arrows for the reason for which microwave manufacturers include into their instructions the warnings like "Dont dry your pet in the microwave". Just in case. The crazy part of that is that most of the ridiculous warnings that are on p...

Spent a long day stitching, watching sports and hating life yesterday. Got a lot done.



and my weirdo, Blue, snuggled up next to me. She turns 11 years on the 31st!

I'm going to have to give it to my mom to hang onto so I don't open it. lol

I've got everything,, just have to wrap and find something to send them in.

I went to Joann's and spent a bunch on needed floss and impulse stuff. lol Thank goodness for coupons and cash back apps! lol At least the candles were on clearance. Might exchange the board for floss bags. Forgot I already have one. Also got a six in one fabric pencil for gridding from Ebay. The ma...
