Here's my wee, but costly stash haul! I wasn't crazy over the new designs that were released in Nashville, a lot of primitive stuff which isn't my tastes as you all know from this blog I don't go there with my stitching. I bought 4 fat quarters the colours are: bedazzled blue, butterfly blue, raw linen, and taupe. I also bought a handful of GAST Limited Edition colours, great for motifs and ornament-like stitching. Oh and I couldn't resist the pink ribbon stork scissors since I fundraise for The Run For The Cure every year!
Stitching wise, Saturday was not as productive as I liked... you know driving and visiting friends and all that! But here's my egg as of tonight!
I'm so happy its March! My stressful period at work is OVER what a relief! Spring is on its way (though the -17c temperature this morning didn't really give any indicators of spring), which means I look forward to starting road running again. Spring Break is almost here!!! I'm off as of 3:30 PM on Friday for a week! In just over a week I'll be at another Timberhouse Retreat hosted by Knowledge and Needles, and of course my favourite part of the month... my birthday on the 27th!!! No wonder I love March right?
I love those scissors! You are sooo close to a finish! It's so beautiful.
