Actually a few days ago I received my order from Herschners. A lovely box that was on clearance--Christmas 2010 gift for dear friend, 2 yds of 14ct Aida, also really good price and 29 Anchor cotton floss. DH inquired whether I now had all the colors. I have all the colors for Thistle Stop but I am still about 40 to 50 short of all Anchor colors.
The next day I received a fabric order for the quilter side of me. That was 11 yds bought with a Christmas gift certificate.

I got the 2010 Cross Stitch a Day Calendar and 2010 Crochet Stitch a Day calendar. And for work I got the Pearls Before Swine (cartoon) daily calendar. Now I shouldn't have a problem knowing what day it is, right?

I got a pack of TWO water erasable pens from ebay ready to start gridding for my HAED! These look more like a felt pen type thing and are much more like what I was expecting.
The broken one was a 'hemline' one (I saw one on ebay and recognised the packaging) which I won't be buying again.
There's nothing better than a good friend, except a good friend with CHOCOLATE! Forget love! I'd rather fall in CHOCOLATE!
