April Reports: The CF Stitch-From-Stash Challenge

Well, that will keep me busy.. I think there are a lot of people in the naughty corner.
I'm probably a good one for chocolate supervisor- I don't like it. Of all the things to snick on- chocolate is towards the bottom of the list. I am full aware I may lose my 'girl card' for admitting that.

Looks like I'm the queen of the naughty corner this month!! Who knew getting trashed talked could be so much fun?

I've never spent much of my life in the naughty corner but this is the best one I've ever been in! But I promise not to intentionally spend more money just so I can stay there. And Maggie, I'll take care of any chocolate you don't want...it'll be tough, but someone has to do it. I'll need the energy to do all that stitching I'll be needing to do during the next 5 months!

I've already informed the owners of both LNSs in our area that they'll have to find another source of revenue because you are cut off! Neither was very happy to hear the news. Your pitiful lack of will power has had a far-reaching impact.

Wait.. hang on a minute. I was good and didn't spend a single cent and I get no chocolate. The people who went over budget get chocolate??? What sorta assbackwards reward system is this?

I want chocolate and I want it NOW. Or else there will be irresponsible spending in may.

Those in the naughty corner get cheap, waxy chocolate if that makes it better.

Yeah! What she said!

Needle,
Maggie is offering chocolate only to those in the Naughty Corner. She's the Chocolate Superviser so it's out of my hands (Yes, I work for a corporation and know how to shed responsibility.). If you want chocolate, you'll either have to spend your butt off or bribe Maggie. I can raise the issue at the next board meeting, but . . .

And I'm not sure how I became chocolate supervisor, Cairee snuck it in back on page 4.

But, well, here's some more to go around.

Cheap waxy stuff for the naughty corner.
Creamy, smooth, imported chocolate for those that have stayed under budget.
(US companies could learn a lot from European chocolatiers- as little I know about chocolate, I know that to be true)

I'm on it. Bacon chocolate for those in good graces this month.

Here is the progress photo for my pitiful attempt at stitching for the month.
This is IT. Terrible.

I think I'll join those in the naughty corner. Not for over-spending, but for under-stitching.
Lets hope that May's report actually shows some progress on this guy.
