Haul o'stash continued...

Well, this iPad is being temperamental (or else, let's be honest - I still haven't mastered Blogger!)

Just wanted to say I'm thrilled that today I reached the big FIVE-OH!  Followers, that is!
And besides being thrilled with that tidbit, I found these treasures waiting in the mail from my friend Debby!  Thanks so much, Deb! I LOVE these!  Really can't wait to start those pieces that make up
From Sea to Shining Sea.  Well, really I just want to dig in and sort those beautiful SILKS in the packages!  Yeah, I'm a bit of a floss junkie, I'll admit it!

And along with these five great charts AND silks, I received this piece to accompany The Library. 

This is Little House Needlework's "The Bookshelf."  It's charted for DMC's, but I'm definitely going to be attacking the over dyes for this one:

And last, but certainly not least, another from Marty over at Stitch and Frog 

This is Ghost's Alphabet by Primrose Needleworks (a new designer to me). 

I really love this one, but I love all things Halloween. Especially the CANDY! 

Big Haul o'Stash!

It's a dreary, rainy day here in South Florida, and I'm really hurting from my back, neck and hips. Plus, my friendly little kidney stones are still happy camping out inside me, it seems.  So what could be a better antidote to the crummy mood I'm in?  NEW STASH!  Today was a big haul. Almost feel like a mermaid who's found a shimmering shiny thingamajig to play with!

This is Mirabilia's newest design - Siren and the Shipwreck.  Now it's going to be extra hard to concentrate on my WIPs!  And what mermaid is complete without some BLING?

Lots of treasures and beads to embellish her! And if course shimmering Kreiniks as well. 

And what better way to chase away the gray rainy skies than to dream of a bright cheery Spring day? 

Hawk Run Hollow, take me away! 

Now if you just can't wait until next week, Marty over at www.stitchandfrog.com will

get these two new designs out in the mail to you if you catch her before she heads to Nashville! 

Tell her Kevin sent you! Ribbit!  

And I just can't seem to ever resist the charts from The Prairie Schooler. Four new designs just released, and I just had to get all four! Here they are:
