He's not sleeping (way way too adorable!) he's supervising with his eyes closed!

This isn't really from the postman, but I told you my LNS is closing at the end of this month. :( Everything is on sale (25% off now, I'm guessing more later). So I took advantage to get fabrics :D for my next 4 (I think) HAED's and then a few more for other projects like Hardanger designs and Lizzie Kates. The back row are for the HAEDs with the pale yellow for The Witching Hour. Mostly linen and jobelan and a mix of 28 and 25 ct. A few DMC pearl #8 balls and two Petite Treasure Braids. Spent a lot but it should last a good long while. I will probably be back at least once more to see what hasn't been snatched up yet.

Yes, you have to email them to ask about it---if you want multiple bags they will offer a discount. I think it depends on how many they have. When I asked it was $10 per oops bag or 4 for $35 plus shipping. I was surprised how quickly they arrived--2 days after I paid!! Great service!!! And beautiful threads too

Fccs was super kind and sweet and sent me the chart for Mirabilia's Dressmaker's Daughter and the beads needed for it that she has decided not to stitch. Once more a huge thank you as this chart has been on my wish list for ages! :hug: :hug:

And all those beads! :shock: :wub: :wub:
