Lisa you know you will miss them really

I was really lucky today my postie brought quite a few pretty dragon floss from so & sew and also a few bobbins of rainbow glissen gloss which Mabel very kindly pointed out in you 'enmabling' thread, both orders I only put in yesterday so really quick

Issue 4 of New Stitches arrived home safely, Mabel. Glad it was of use to you. (Those early editions were bi-monthly, btw, in case you are ever asked in the next Stash & Grab pub quiz.)

she has bought me a hoodie i ordered for paul for his valentines pressie, some signs and ribbon for the wedding post box, and the giraffe plastic canvas bookmark kit that was featured in this months cross stitcher, i couldn't resist it

Thank you, Rose, I really appreciate it!

A HAED chart - Blizzard Buddies (Dona Gelsinger)


I'm really suprised that I actually got this - I had had it on my wishlist for a long time and it was retired by HAED mid August last year so I quickly searched around to find somewhere that still sold it. Placed an order with a few other threads etc. Well I got the other stuff but the chart was placed on back order. Well the credit card that I'd used expired in September and since I hadn't heard anything more about the chart I figured that I would never get it. Well a couple of weeks ago I got an email saying that the chart had finally come in! So I sent them new credit card details and yesterday I finally got the chart I ordered in AUGUST!

Oh wow that is so cute I love it!!!!! So glad that you were able to track it down and now you have an adorable chart to stitch.

my postie brought me 100 new dmc threads for my umbrella sky haed design the colours are so bright i almost thought they had sent the wrong ones lol

Love the blizzard buddies, very cute design and so glad you finally got it!!

Well well, what a lovely surprise for me today. I got a HUGE bundle of Kreinik Silk Mori threads and Milkpaints from that sale on at the US store Mabel directed us to. I must have bought about 100!! Lots of lovely bobbin winding for me tonight. Hee hee *rubs hands in gleeful anticipation*

i got my dove grey 14 count aida fabric i needed and it came with three shades of blue madeira silk threads as a free gift, i have never used silks before.

I had a card from the postman today there is a parcel waiting for collection at the sorting office!! I'm certain its my afghan fabric the Beatrix Potter ABC charts arrived Tuesday and as I have all the threads from DMC already I can start it this weekend!
