Hi everyone,
Time for my weekly update..
I've spent most of the week going through my stash ...putting away threads... deciding what to work on in February for the Love2stitch challenge at embroidery.com - and thinking about a March Madness month of new starts.

Color Chart
Birthday floss club:
Made a few more floss tags and matching needleminders.
The paper pack is one of the ones that I'm using. The 2 on the left were for January.. (here are the leftover scraps of the paper - I forgot to take a picture before they mailed out) and the one on the right is what I've started for the February girls.
I mixed in some plain red for February as that is my color, and because the way I cut the patterned paper I didn't have enough tags (there's 20+ in our group)
Stash:
Monday...
Subscription 2021 Let's Go
Sledding Ornament series designs by Annie Beez Folk Art. Exclusive
club at Crazy Annies Stitchin (Every month) January got the perforated paper and the bead pack as well.
Wednesday's mail brought...Simple Stitches fabrics...there was a sale on this fat quarter bundle. I'm thinking this will make some nice project bags.
A fellow stitcher was de-stashing - I picked out these wonderful gently used charts.... She mailed it to me on January 2nd... it arrived on the 21st...
Bent creek autumn mantle ...all 3 parts,
artful offerings peppermint polar bear,
madam la fee vin de france
mani di Donna for every season pillows.
I received an email that HAED was retiring some of the older Anne Stokes patterns. So these hopped into my cart.
Mini Spiny Woodland Hopper
Still thinking about 2 others...
I know I have the storykeep of Water dragon..but the mini has been calling me - also the mini Woodland guardian. I have until Monday to decide.
I received JDD cozy into winter, Winter Posey kit and Lila's Studio Seasons- Winter
Need some threads for Cozy into winter & one for Lila's.. but it is out of stock.. will try to order next week.
Saturday brought more stash this time my order from
ETSY Shop Carolina Cotton Company...fabric for J's peek a boo pouches ...and some for a project bag or 2 or maybe 3? - wine theme
The bottom label one is for the peekaboo pouch.
I'll probably use the cork for the outside
Saw the wine bottles and couldn't resist.
and... Lastly...
Another stitcher's de-stash.. bent creek puppy dog row with floss and buttons. Arrived in 3 days!
Until next time,
Have a wonderful day!
