Stash Additions

Happy Monday to everyone!

It was a wonderful relaxing weekend. Saturday we went swimming with some friends. I was playing with their little two-year-old in the pool and she grabbed my swimsuit top and said "what's down there?". As I am not a mom, I was completely unprepared for such a question (my first thought was 'not much' but somehow I just knew that was not the appropriate answer) and tried to divert her with the water ball - thankfully it worked :-)

I received some great patterns this week. These two are from Tanya's stash reduction and the third is one I purchased from ebay. Someone suggested starting a SAL for A Sweeter Love, but I can't recall who it was (does anyone else know who it is?). Anyhow, now that I have the chart, I just need material and I will be ready to sign up!

This little beauty is from Jolene - I won the mystery prize in her drawing last week. I was so excited to open my mailbox and find this on Saturday! I just wanted to sit down and start stitching it immediately - it is so sweet. Thanks Jolene!

I worked diligently on "Boo" all weekend and only have the border left to do - I'll post pictures soon.

Hi Cari,

So glad your package arrived safely; I love getting "presents" in the mail, especially if it has to do with needle and thread! LOL! Can't wait to see photos of "Boo". Great stash additions.
