I also got my very first posh threads from Sew and so
caron wildflowers and watercolour to do the butterfly blackwork in this months stitches I thought it was beautiful (Its added to the long to do list)
I am waiting for 3 more and also some coloured aida and also a kit I ordered. Gee I hope that's everything. I remember having a little spending accident on the net one night
I received the Cherry Blossom pattern yesterday after I got back from the races. I can hardly wait to find the right fabric to start it on. I'm going shopping or that tomorrow.
Still waiting for a parcel from Hedgehog Handworks in America, sent on the 13th -- and when I try to track it with USPS, the only thing it says is that "USPS have been electronically notified to expect your package for mailing" Royal Mail says it hasn't come through Customs into this country yet -- so where is it????

Opened up my mailbox to see 3 packages, all full of stash!!! The first one was from Flo, with the AOY kit (thank you so much! yes I still like it very much ), the second was from a secret pal exchange I did on the EMS forum, full of so many goodies I can't even name them all, and the third was from cc in return for my craftmates - fabrics, silks and overdyeds

52 of my 68 threads ordered for my HAED the other colours will be in stock by the end of the week, very happy now and can't wait to start stitching but not finished my gridding yet.
Mind you if I came away from the internet I'd get it done quicker.
Got the first of the two Afghans for the twins. Actually ordered them three weeks ago but the first company let me down. Re ordered from Willow Fabrics on Monday and it came yesterday. Chrissie has decided she would like the Margaret Sherry alphabet which was serialised in Crosstitcher. I will post in SAL when I get started.
Chrissie goes for her 20 week scan today, so we are hoping to find out what gender they are.
and a letter from the organisers of the craft fair in novemeber. giving me a free gift of metallic gelly roll pens for being one of the first to book the tickets

I had a lovely surprise this morning, my postie brought me 2 pieces of 18ct aida one white and the other a pretty pale lemon, 6 varigated DMC threads, and a card, thank you so much Maggs
I’ve ordered three of the five designs for CCN “Winter Wonderland†(the other two are still to be released), some pink linen fabric (I’ll use the one in the middle, Permin Cherub Pink, for this project), Casey Buonaugurio’s Carrot Cake Sampler plus a Carrot button to complete it (I already have the DMC threads) and Bone Aida fabric. I’m going to start the Winter Wonderland soon, while the Carrot Cake sampler will have to wait until I’ve finished the Chocolate Cake sampler.
