After visiting the post office to send Dollystitcher the plastic bobbin boxes I promised.. I came home to find the postie had paid a visit and already bought me Dollys exchange supprise!



I'm still busy looking through my stash of books and patterns to find something to make from it for my impending baby! Just don't know what! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Lovely stash!

Lovely colours do you have any idea what you would like to stitch,an ornament for baby's room or some sort of sampler for instance, or is it a picture you would like to do?

2. Two pieces of Silkweaver fabric which have exceeded my expectations (Enchanted and Mountain Mist).

This morning I got my order and I’m so looking forward to starting my new stitches!

Here’s my haul:



And here’s a pic of my beloved Casey Buonaugurio’s Chocolate Cake sampler (only a few DMC threads because I already have the rest; the beads are lovely):



And here’s my LHN House of a needleworker, too. I can’t wait to start stitching with those adorable Crescent Colours, I may start this project this PM if my husband doesn’t tease me (he hates seeing me stitching, but I digress...)

You are a bad influence!!

I have just had to check out Little House Needleworks' charts - hitherto unknown to me - and have ordered three! I need more charts like a hole in the head.

[silviaciuchi]

LOL.
This is my first LHN too. I was intrigued by the effect of crescent colours, so I checked for charts using them and came across this lovely one. I've started it already, I'm going to post a pic in the SAL section soon.

I got my issue of CrossStitcher today, it has a couple of really lovely charts in it! The cover kit might end up being a Christmas present for someone, and there's a pretty sampler inside that I might do - but haven't decided whether for myself or for someone else.

I got my copy of Cross Stitcher too is that our Lisa I spot on the letters page?

[Lizzieh]

Forgot to say, I got my double sided sellotape from Mabel earlier in the week. Thanks Mabel. Will be happy sticking things for a while now!!

I got my token and subscription form from Tesco clubcard for the years subscription to Cross stitcher magazine!

[Lisa]

speaking of scanning, as anyone scanned the article from WOXS?

[Mabel Figworthy]

I came home to a lovely envelope from Vikki Clayton (Hand-Dyed Fibres) with five premium silks and a grab bag -- 25 mixed hand-dyed silks (regular and premium) for $8, and there are some glorious colours in it! (Will try and remember to post a pic)

I haven't a clue what to stitch yet. Am still going through all my patterns trying to find just the right one! But rest assured I shall post some pics when I can make up my mind!
