Has anyone else been tempted?

Post by jocellogirl »

I know there has just been a 50% off and I didn't buy anything, but after the sale finished it was announced that Bridget Tavener will be retired on 6th March :(
I had a couple of her charts on my wishlist, so I have bought them, plus a few others that I really like. Here they are
3 Wise Men
Image
White Reindeer Family
Image
Three Kings
Image
Bear and Snowflake
Image
All Delivered Ornament
Image
Santa in Clouds
Image

I know, I should show more restraint and will probably never stitch them, but at least I now have the charts :wub:

That baby polar bear is so cute! There's a lil' one who was just introduced to the zoo visitors (I saw the film on the news) over in Europe....he was soooo cute (at least I *think* it was a he---I let him have his privacy!)

I thought about the ornament and the reindeer and the polar bear. I actually didn't get anything (hard to believe isn't it?) because I couldn't make up my mind and with the repairs I am having done to the house, decided to be frugal. I guess I'll be waiting on the next 50% sale unless I lose my unusual moment of self control. I love the ones you chose.

Very nice choices!
I was going to skip last 50% but then the World Travel Bookshelf was released and I could not resist it.
I am going to skip this one.... I think.... :thinks: :thinks:

I'm tempted but am going to behave (this time). I especially love the white reindeer, the three kings, and (of course) the polar bear.

I have a couple of Bridgit Tavener's designs (Polar Bear and Santa Takes A Break) that have been sitting on my wishlist for a long time but I've decided that I can do without them even though there is a sale as I have way too many designs with that blue background to stitch already.
