Birthday stash....

I celebrated another birthday this week. 

 

My mom always knows what I like and

gave me the perfect gift once again

.... in both size and color (green!).  

I wasted no time acquiring some goodies from

Victorian Motto

(have you seen her new hand dyed chenille and ric rac????)

and

Threadwork Primitives 

(Nan has some designs I just couldn't resist any longer!)  

Hopefully the postman will be nice and

deliver them next week.

I am also a member of the Birthday club at the The Stitch & Frame Shop in Rock Hill

so I got to visit them today.  You get a 20%

discount on a project (design, floss, linen and embellishments) and I knew exactly what I would pick....LHN "Thirteen Colonies". 

I just love this design ( well...South Carolina is mentioned so why not)  and I can't wait to start it.

I have been doing mostly exchange stitching

that I can't share but I did play around with

some beads yesterday.  I found this cute bee

charm in my stash and decided to make

myself a scissor fob.

 Don't you just love beads?????

Hope you are having a great weekend. 

The weather has been terrible in certain parts of

the country and I hope you are safe tonight!  It

has turned out to be a beautiful evening here and

I think  I will sit on the patio with my hubby to

end the evening.

Happy stitches....
