Some items that I ordered from Stitches N Things during my birthday shopping spree arrived this week. And when Lou Anne called to let me know, I just had to add the 2 new Nora Corbett designs and their bead packs to the stash. The top one is Coral Charms and the pixie is Wisteria. The white fabric is for Mirabilia‘s Christmas in London and the magazine and threads are for the Snowman Afghan from Stoney Creek. I can’t wait to start both of these projects.
I received these beauties from my BSF (Best Stitchy Friend) Johanna. She made the heart on the frame and the Dragon’s Eye on the table, from clay. She is so talented! I’ll have to take a better picture of the Dragon’s eye. It really is amazing! The mermaid box is so sweet! She knows me so well. I can’t wait to find something special to put inside. The frame is for holding all of my needle minders. She added a magnet to the frog making him a great needle minder. Now to find my 3 or 4 others to put on here and know where they are at all times 🙂
And lastly, this isn’t Birthday mail, but I did receive it on my birthday 🙂 It is my Fabric Of the Month from Stephanie. It is Fathom’s Below, 16ct Aida. It is perfect for a mermaid. I wonder which one I will stitch on it…
I also received a Gift Certificate for 123 Stitch from my good stitchy friend Annie. I see more stitchy stuff in my future!
So, what are you stitching on today?

Oh my gosh…I really have too much stash and I really must not buy any more, but how can I stand seeing your haul and continue to resist? Stash collection is like a disease!

Good woman, you are so right! it is definitely a sickness. I definitely don’t need anymore stash, but the designers keep coming up with such fantastic patterns.

Very true about great new designs. You probably know the term S.A.B.L.E. (Stash accumulation beyond life expectancy). How about 2 life expectancies? I keep thinking that if I were to leave this world, the task of dealing with all that stash would be insurmountable.
