nothing like stash to cheer a person up.

Not that I needed the cheering, but excuses are that. Excuses.
Guess what I ordered? Yup. Some adorable, fat little birds. Pamela always sends a nice confirmation email. It's great to know the order was received and it will be on its way, soon.

I also ordered a few other things at 1-2-3 Stitch!

  • Poppy, by Nora Corbett, for my Flosskid Val aka "Poppy"
  • a nice 30 x 36 piece of White Monaco, also for Val. According to 123 Stitch they are selling huge pieces of the stuff. People ordering 5 yards at a time, then calling and asking if they have two more! So she may end up sending out the other items and then the fabric later, once it's in.
  • Mill Hill Snowflake charms, for me. (They might work with the next item I had been watching come to life on Kim's blog.)
  • Snowman Trio
  • and another thing I can't mention here, because she reads my blog. Just a little something-something. May be an out-of-the-blue RAK, or a birthday present. We'll see....

I keep thinking I want to have a stash exchange. Will have to think on it.

I love stash shopping even when it's just stash for my floss kids and I have to send it away.

I like monaco too as it's so easy to work with. The charms you chose are sweet and I think they'll look fab on the snowmen...depending on the sizes.

Yay...soon the mailman will be at your door with packages!!!

Aw thank you Daffy. :) it's so funny that threads, fabric and other dodads make us so happy.
Have you "mistaken" yet- thinking you had some thread or what not when in fact you had bought and sent it off to a flosskid? I have done that. Talk about a "doh" moment!
I am sure Pamela would set you up if you asked......... (*whistles the "Enabling Song"* dum de dooo, doo, .... hee hee.)
