What wonderful gifts and why am I not surprised that Sally put such an adorable hanging in for your girls.

Great charts/kits Amanda - they should keep you busy for a while. Lovely stash.

I see lots of fun stuff there, Amanda.

A birthday present to myself.

That's quite a birthday present!

The only hard part of that wonderful gift is which one you will stitch first??? I think it is great when someone buys themselves a present. It is such a great reason to treat yourself to a stash splurge!

What fun you are going to have stitching all these beauties up. Lovely present.

I had a wonderfully full to the max mail box today. No bills, one Netflix DVD (George Gently Disc 1 Series 5) I don't know how many series there are of this, but I do like them and they aren't on any TV here. ) A lovely package from 123 Stitch with the box of new DMC threads

and more DMC perles for my Xmas Rounds and I also added Lavender Mist Caron Watercolors and Wildflowers and a Primrose Wildflower (already had the Watercolor skein)

and (though you can't really see them because I don't want to unpack them yet)
the coasters from Mabel!!!

Need to stop typing and get back to my stitching!

WOW What a big mail box full that was Carole. Absolutely gorgeous.

Here is my haul from the Craft Show I went to this morning.

The upper lot is card making supplies, not a lot available this time - rather disappointing. Yes the same stands were there but with less variety/supplies.

The fabric is from my guys at Sewitall 3 pieces of 28 ct Lugana and 3 piece of 25 ct Lugana all in soft pastel shades for cards etc.
And "yes Mabel they are expensive" - have hiked up their prices a bit this year.

I didn't see any linen I liked though but did get some DMC perles and other lovely threads the latter for Stashmas so can't show them yet - sorry Serinde no peeking.

All in all a bit disappointing as Sewitall were the only stand to have stitching fabrics available although there were several stands with threads.

A good mornings work.

Sally, are you having trouble with photobucket? I would love to see your new stash!

Carole

Carole - no problems with photobucket, the picture is up on my screen now.
Can you not see it on your computer?

Lovely stash additions!

I like George Gently too. We watched it on Netflix on demand. I don't remember, but I don't think there were many episodes on there.

See it now, Sally! And worth the wait. What wonderful fabric you got. Looks like it was a wonderfully productive morning.

What lovely goodies everyone has!

Sally those are lovely shades of fabric -- so much better to see them in real life to decide if they are what you want, isn't it? Shame there wasn't a lot of card-making, and generally I too found this year that the variety was less. Still makes a lovely day out though

Carole, glad the coasters arrived safely *phew* and I am now sorely tempted by Primrose which I think is one of the few shades I haven't got yet

Must add it to my wishlist...

Lowery stand! It's used, but it works and came with lots of bubble wrap. lol Still trying to figure out the right setup and get used to it.

What lovely stash everyone!! Love your new Lowery stand too Dawn.
My postie brought these goodies earlier this week--all are 32 count belfast linen from Under the Sea---as you can see I didn't waste any time starting on one of them
