Happy Blogaversary Give-away

My Time Stitching24 Comments

Today is my 3 year anniversary since starting my stitchy blog.  It has been a fun ride and I have met so many wonderful people.  I started this blog as a way to keep track of my projects and share my passion for stitching.  So, to celebrate my anniversary, I have a nice little giveaway that you can win. Simply leave me a comment on this post telling me which of my blog posts is your favorite or which one of my projects is your favorite. I will draw one name to win the following prize:

WIN_20150325_150237

The prize package includes a piece of 32ct Lugana Solo from Silkweaver measuring 16 x 25 ( a definite mistake in ordering as I don’t stitch on 32ct, but the fabric is beautiful!), The February 2015 issue of Just Cross Stitch Magazine (I renewed my subscription and received this one after I had purchased it) My favorite model stitcher stitched the cover 😉 A package of DMC Color Variations-the Blue Lagoon Collection.  I liked the colors so much I purchased it twice; a couple of Weeks Dye Works threads and 3 packages of Mill Hill beads.

So leave me a comment on this post by March 31, 2015 and I will draw a name from all entries on April 1 and it won’t be a joke 🙂

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?
