Fabric · New stash!

Birthday Mail!


Birthday mailSome 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.

100_9860I 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 🙂

Fathom's Below fabricAnd 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?

Fabrics A Plenty


I have been on a bit of fabric spending spree lately.  This is what I received in the mail last weekend:

Nantucket sky enchanted glen shimmering pool

Aren’t  they just beautiful?  They are all from Hand Dyed Fabrics By Stephanie. On the left is Nantucket Sky-I plan on stitching Lavender Lace’s Spring Angel on it.  Top right is Enchanted Glen and on the bottom right is Shimmering Pool.  They are all 16ct Aida and all are beautiful.  My camera really captured the true colors of these fabrics.  Not sure what I will stitch on Enchanted Glen.  Shimmering Pool is perfect for a mermaid.  I have also purchased quite a few fabrics from Silkweaver lately.  I don’t have pictures of those, but will have to pull them out and take a picture of the many I have purchased.  I think that I have enough fabrics now for whatever design I want.  Now I just want to stitch a little on each of the fabrics 🙂  Thanks for visiting today.
