I got the button that takes you to her page in my siggie.

if anyone else wants to do this.
She gives permission to use the button with a link back to her page if anyone wants to do the same I can pm the exact thing I put in my siggie to you there were a bunch of steps to get there or here are the steps

1. Saved the image to my device
2. Uploaded to photo bucket and resized to 80x80
3. Made a url link but used the one where the url is in the first bracket [url = thenthe urlmgoes here ] your words here then the [/ url ]
4. Instead of putting the words there I did a img code with a direct link to the img in my photobucket

i ended up with
if I give you the exact wording of my siggie it may send ppl to my photobucket which is fine with me but you may want it to go to yours

[ url = her page link] [ Img ] my image link [ / img ] [ / url ]

1) I spent $20 - count everything
2) I spent $10 - only count the floss I bought since fabric is not really stash but testing out an idea
3) I spent $0 - it was christmas money!

Decisions, decisions!
My understanding is that any stash you buy with gift money doesn't count. I received $75 in gift money and already made one purchase from 123stitch so that's coming from that amount. I may not use all of it for stash, so I'll just keep track of the amount spent on any goodies for myself and once it's gone, then any stash purchased counts towards the monthly limit.

I guess it depends if people would see that as a duplicate effort since some of us are posting the same info on our blogs...but I know some don't have blogs so a dedicated thread could be useful.

It took me a few tries to figure out how to put the Stitching From Stash button on my blog's sidebar so I just stuck with simplicity for my siggy here. 8)

I am one of the blogless. I don't know if I'll get one as I don't think I would even have enough to say.

I am with you on this my life is not interesting enough for a blog and I would rather be stitching then writing on a computer so I will just be sending her emails and links to either my photobucket account or my posts here on the forum.

Oh I was talking about for us, not for the actual link, I was saying that way it would be easier to keep up with here. For the "entry" I will probabky just do a small part on my vlog. I dont blog often, I have one and in 3 years have made 23 posts. I don't write well formally, heck even on here I have tons of typos. (I blame my touch screen keyboard I hit the m or the b instead of space bar)
But the vlog has been some fun, esp since there are othermstitchers vlogging about their updates too. Imfelt silly at first but it has become a lot of fun.

when I was talking about on here I was saying that we could keep upmwith each other in here on one thread. I dunno if that would be considered duplication or not.

Is she foing to be sharing the links tomthe blogs Imhave yet to understand that part. How we participants are gonna keep up with other. Idont know if I can Follow 100+ blogs.

Managed to miss this :( but I think I'll set myself the personal challenge to attempt it anyway as it looks like our family income will be dropping by about 60% for 2014 which is going to be interesting.

Although, reckon I have so much stash that I could go for years without buying anything :oops:
This is the year that I finally deal with all my UFOs......
