It’s Official..I am addicted!


I’m addicted to Stephanie’s Hand Dyed fabrics!  Look what arrived in the mail today:

Stephys fabbies sale day 2

Yep.  More of Stephanie’s fabrics from her sale.  They are all just gorgeous!  From left to right they are:  Loki, Seafoam, Haunting, Falling Leaves, Snow Drifts Opalescent, and Isolde Opalescent.  All are 16ct Aida and all are so delicious looking!  The sparkly aida’s are so pretty!  I can’t wait to stitch on all of my stephy’s fabbies!  My favorite from this batch is definitely Haunting.  I love the pinks and grays.   Ok, time to get stitching!

More Fabric?


That’s what my hubby said when he went out to get the mail while I was in the house hosting a psychic party on Saturday.  Here is what I received:

Stephanie's sale fabby's

This is my first order that I placed on day one of Stephanies’ fabric sale last month.  All are 16ct Aida.  From left to right they are:  Fairy Dance, Northern Lights, Secret, Pixie Kiss Warm Sugar and Samantha.  They are all just gorgeous and I am going to have fun finding things to stitch on these in the future.  I placed a second order on day 2 of her sale after finding out that Aida comes in Opalescent!  Scream!  I can’t wait to get that order.  I ordered two Opals and I’m sure they will also be just a beautiful as these-but sparkly!  Do you think I am addicted to Stephy’s fabby’s?

Emerald is Getting Beaded


I’m about half way through beading Emerald Mermaid.  She is looking awesome!

Beading Emerald

I should be finished with her this week.  She really has a lot of beads on her.  But the more beads, the more sparkle 🙂  When I finish her, it will be time to start my Asian design for the Joan Eliott Round Robin.  I received my fabric from Stephanie on Saturday. It was a long time trying to get what I wanted.  Stephanie worked really hard to make me happy.  Here is what she came up with:

Mocha Delight

It is 28 ct Jobelan Mocha Delight.  There isn’t a lot of color variations in the fabric but the color is really going to make my Geisha girls pop as well as the cherry blossoms I intend to put on my layout.  I will post a picture when I get it stitched and ready to go.  Thank you Stephanie for taking the time to make me happy 🙂

Some Pillows and some new stash


Today I realized that I never posted my February Pillow.  In fact, I never put it out 😦  So in putting January pillow away and getting out the March pillow, I took some pictures.

The February pillow case, no pillow in it.

March Pillow

The March Pillow.  I love all the blues and greens.  Makes me thing Spring!  Is it here yet?  Kind of felt like it today.  Sunny and in the low 40’s.  Beautiful! Now onto some new stash I received this week.  First some goodies from a very sweet friend:

Goodies from Johanna

The latest Just Cross Stitch magazine and some of the limited edition DMC floss.  I love all the shades of blue in this floss.  The magazine has a cute teapot design in it.  Johanna knows I love tea pots.  Here is the tea pot.

Very cute and springy.  I love the colors in this one.  It will be added to my long list of projects to do 🙂  Thank you Johanna.  You are so sweet to think of me.

Next I have some more of Stephanie’s fabrics.  This first batch I received on Tuesday:

Stephys fabbies

The top left is Bliss, next to that is Twixt N Tween, under Bliss is Orange/tan, next to that is Turquoise, and on the bottom is Banshee.  All are 16 ct Aida except for the Orange/tan-that is 28ct Lugana.  They are all just beautiful.  And on Thursday, I received these:

More Stephanie fabrics

Regular Banshee on top and Banshee Brown on the bottom.  They are both beautiful and Banshee Brown is awesome!  It is what I want for my Asian JE Round Robin!  Both of these are 16ct Aida.  Stephanie is in the process of making me the Banshee Brown in 28ct Lugana for my RR.  I can’t wait to get the fabric and get started on my layout.

So it’s been a good week with lots of fun stitchy stuffs to add to my stash.  Thanks for stopping by to see what I have been up to:)
