2016 Deliveries and New Stash Acquisitions

[wendywombat]

My mom was thinking about me while on her Alaskan cruise/tour and she popped into a stitching/knitting store and found a puffin x-stitch pattern for me!!

(Wendy Wombat, I was thinking of you when I saw it! Especially since your sig line is Mom's motto, too.)



Can't wait to work on it.

here' s the drool, Mabel!

Oh those Puffins And I thought I had all the puffin charts !!!

I shan't put up another photo....but these have Just arrived! Debby ordered them for me and we did a deal on payment and postage.

I shall look forward to stitching these!
Thanks Debby!

I have a few acquisitions since I was last with you. It was my birthday last week and my wonderful best friend and her family gave me a credit note for a local framers to get one of my finished projects framed!! The only problem now is to choose which one!!

I was also given this from my sister:



The present from my husband (for Christmas as well) is kitting up my Butterfly Lace Chatelaine!!

Coincidentally I was RAKed last week the following HAED. It is A Stitch in Time by Aimee Stewart:

What awesome gifts!!! I have looked at "A Stitch in Time" very often, but can only handle one Aimee Stewart at a time. I broke my "no new HAED charts" to get it at the last sale. I can't wait to see your start on any of the projects you mentioned. Kitting up a chatelaine is an awesome gift too. I'd say you had a Stitcher's Dream Birthday!

I'd say you had a Stitcher's Dream Birthday!

I agree completely. What thoughtful gifts you received and I am sure you will enjoy all of them.

Picking up goldwork stash at the K&S Show tomorrow but no pics until I'm back home I'm afraid, will be offline until then

[wendywombat]

Have Fun!!!

[Serinde]

Lucky you! Have a great time and I hope you drum up LOTS of business.

Thanks Lisa . Love these charts!!

[Serinde]

Awww. So nice.

[stitchhappy18]

I am happy you are enjoying them Wendy! If I can ever get my act together and stitch the blue tit one I can send you that one as well. The stitching of this bird series has turned into a 2 year plus project. I keep getting distracted by other shiny new patterns.

Very nice acquisitions Jewell and Wendy.

[Mabel Figworthy]

My Knitting & Stitching Show haul is mostly goldwork this year - the first pic shows my pre-order from Golden Hinde with a few things added at the Show (the coloured purls, and some #2 pearl purl for theJacobean goldwork), the second shows two packets of fine smooth sadi (the Indian version of smooth purl) and a skein of hand-dyed perle #16 from Chameleon, whose Shades of Africa overdyed silks I love.
Pretty, aren't they ?

[wendywombat]

Quite a haul, there. Lovely green silk pearl #16. Not seen that weight before.

Looks like your visit was a success

[kandifloss]

What pretty threads you bought Mabel. Look forward to seeing them once you start using them

[Squirrel]

Love the threads Mabel and it will be great to see how you are going to use all of them.
