:dance: :dance: :dance: glad they got there safely Angel!! And I really hope you have fun putting the threads and fabric to good use.
I've recently gotten Cross Stitch Collection magazine with Iris Fairy in it--thanks to Angel--and I have started stitching Iris fairy up--but waiting on the kreinik threads and mill house beads.
I also recently got some very pretty mauve 25 count lugana fabric for hardanger stitching from Mabel--and waiting on some Caron threads to use on it. :dance:

Oh I certainly will ^_^ I love the sampler chart so much, we've been out there looking for something that we both like for me to stitch for the wedding, but nothing has hit us, then you send the perfect one! I also really adore the fabric. It's wonderful! Thank you so much!

So strange how that works out Angel--I'd gotten that with a bit of fabric that I bought recently and knew I wouldn't need it--and figured you may just be able to use it! So very pleased it went to the right home! :) Can't wait to see you stitch it up :D

Strange isn't it? I'll be titching it on a vinntage Ivory or cream fabric, and as soon as I've found the right one I'll make a SAL and put it into rotation ^_^

Just received a mix of patterns & a pocket calendar from Sjordan! Thanks so much! The patterns are perfect because I ordered a few of the Light Effects threads last night. Love the Calendar as well!

Mail finally came. I got my grid pen and picked up a grime guard for my qsnap It does a great job of keeping all the excess fabric out of my way and clean.
