I received my packages in the mail yesterday evening (if you scroll down to the post of the 20th, you'll see the pictures). :)
Yes, I have a humungous (just imagine that spelling is right - we will not say anything to the spelling police okay?) smile on my face. Two more stitching projects to drool over. One is going to be done on evenweave (that is the big Inn) . . . mmmm, I am already imagining starting that one! And the enchantress with all those folds in the material . . . can't wait! The pictures in my post do not do it justice - it is going to be beautiful if I can do it well.
I have four projects now. Hubby just can't understand why I just don't finish a project first - why do I have to buy more? How do I try to explain this obsession to just collect more stash to him? I don't think I will ever get to the point where I will say I have enough . . .
And I also bought a little embroidery scissor . . . I seem to be drawn towards embroidery scissors at the moment. I just about go starry-eyed when I see the scissors in the pictures on some of the blogs I read and decided to just go ahead and take the leap. This is the little scissors I bought . . . it is just too cute! The picture doesn't show it too clearly but the bottom part is a sort of marbled effect.
Can two pairs be considered a collection yet? :)
Anyway, enough for this morning - a whole day of stitching lies ahead. Have a wonderful day and Happy 4th of July to my American friends! :)
I always thought scissors were a stupid thing to collect...then I started my gingher collection. It all happened when I bought a pair of retired designers off of ebay for a friend. She almost didnt get them. Now I hunt down all the old retired ones in the series, and snatch up the new ones right away.
ReplyDeleteOh I love the gingher scissors too - some beautiful ones are sold online. Unfortunately a little expensive for me right now. Maybe in the future.
ReplyDeleteNo Chrizette two pairs of scissors can not be considered a collection. But I am sure you will increase it cause there are just too many pairs out there to choose from. Right? Your little dog is coming along and he is so cute, and the stitching isn't bad either.
ReplyDeleteCome see my blog theflyingitchesneedle.blogspot.com. I have a tribute page to my daughter and her family up that I did for the 4th. So you can see her and DH and kids, please check it out.

Chrizette how do you put finishes and WIP's on your blog page. Is there a special formula to be able to do it?
ReplyDeleteI need to do that.
