What did I order? You girls are nosey. But that's alright, I like nosey! My 123 Stitch! order arrived today. Here is what I got:
Bent Creek's Snapper's Year. I've been following this, being stitched this year by Barbi and have really enjoyed her posts, watching it grow. The theme is similar to Crabby All Year and I'll probably make this 2010's monthly stitch. Thanks Barbi!
Then I got Bent Creek's The Branch Snappers. I watched Jill stitch this up and fell in looove.
I couldn't resist this Erica Michaels design, Hanukkah Bits when I saw it on Jennifer's blog. This is darling! It's supposed to be stitched on 40 count gauze, included with the pattern. OMG it is like, SO TINY! Um, I don't know if I can see that small.
My last little buy was a spool of Kreinik so I can see Chiloe finish her Pansy fairy.
There were two of the charts that were back-ordered but they should be sent along very soon. Where else can you order late on a Friday, get shipped on Monday and have it arrive on Wednesday? I love it.
I just noticed something. Everything here, I ordered because I saw one of you stitching it. You enablers, you!
.
Thank you for visiting my blog today!
xox
2010 monthlies must be in the air. Cheryl blogged about her idea. And I've been thinking about mine... don't laugh. I'm thinking O'Steen's Berlin Woolwork. Crazy I know.
ReplyDeleteGreat stash! I finished my Snapper Year in September. It was a fun stitch...except that border. Oooo....made me so mad I could scream. So my advice is to pay attention when you're doing the border! ;)
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! Happy to help out!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way though...so don't feel alone.
Fantastic stash!
ReplyDeleteHeh heh, yep I'll admit to being nosey. Love the Bent Creek pieces - I have been watching those develop on blogs too but I still think I like your Crabby All Year best. Let us know how that guaze piece goes. Whew! Makes my eyes hurt just to think about it.
ReplyDeleteoh happy day
ReplyDeletenew stash is FUN
Love all your stash enhancements! I'm still on a self-imposed (almost!) moratorium of buying new stash, so I will enjoy yours vicariously!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I acknowledged the receipt of Simon's Cat on my blog tonight - Thanks so much!
Sharon, I love it! I love sharing in the excitement when others get stash :)

OMW! Heaven, pure heaven! An arrival of stitching stash is my idea of the perfect day!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your new goodies and I can't wait to see the rest of the order as it arrives :)
I had to stop visiting certain blogs each day because I just kept falling in love with everyone's projects and stash, I totally know what you mean.
Enjoy it all and happy stitching

I've ordered from 123stitch several times. Isn't Joanne great?
ReplyDeleteEnabling...sigh....I think it's a blogging hazard and should have warning signs :) LOL. Great new stash though and I have the BC monthly snappers too were you interested in a SAL next year?? I wanted to get them done this year but no luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kudos. =)
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, I'm sure that my enabling will be paid back tenfold next time I order from my favorite shop!
Oh my, great new stuff. Isn't it wonderful how all this blog viewing leads to ordering new stash? I love it!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff!! :)
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI bet it was fun to receive a package from 123 Stitch!!!!
You should start a SAL on the Bent Creek Snappers...I finally got my fabric a few months ago. Using buttons instead of snaps. I think that's the same design as you're showing...lol!
ReplyDeleteLovely new stash
