Market Stash!!

I went to Amy's to stitch yesterday. Well, I meant to go to Amy's to stitch, but I didn't get any stitching done. Dh called when I was almost there and told me he didn't have his house keys. So I stayed for a little bit. I ate some pizza and bought some new stash! It's my early birthday present to myself! :)

The poor lion needs a head! I can tell this is going to be such a fun design!! I wish I didn't have so much to do today or I'd just plunk my butt on the couch and not get up! Oh well, maybe tomorrow. Write soon! :)

    Great new stash, Nicole. Shame about hubby not having his keys. Still, not an entirely wasted day with a bit of spending. I love 'Tis The Season' and those Belle Soie silks look yummy. Haven't stitched with these yet. Nice start too, and I can sympathize with you wanting to just sit and stitch all day long - I feel like that often!

    So envious of your stash Nicole! I have Paradise Lost on order at my LNS...might take like forever to get it! What seems like forever anyway! Wish my LNS would go to market...not complaining too much tho...she does carry lots of linens and threads!

    What a feast for the eyes. I'm so jealous that you got all that stash! My LNS didn't go to market so there was absolutely nothing when I went this weekend. Now I'm reduced to waiting for the snail mail!

    Wow you really got some lovely things!! I am so happy for you! I want to get Paradise Lost. I am glad you started it so I can watch your progress and then I hope to eventually get it. I love the bright colors. Glad you at least got to buy new stash and have some pizza! Oh that sounds so yummy!! I also love the cardinal in the Christmas book you got! We love the cardinals here!

    We have similar tastes as I've picked up some of the same at my LNS. They didn't have Paradise Lost yet and that's the one I'm dying to start. Happy to see yours and can't wait to see it progress.

    Nice stash, Nicole! I was good, and only ordered one chart from market - Christmas at Hawk Run Hollow.
