great stash day :-)

What a lovely day today has been. I received a belated birthday present from my good friend Princess (sparkly) sarah. She sent me Nora Corbett Ivy, Waxing Moon designs Stitching Mends the Soul and Simply Snowdays, 2 Six Strand Sweets threads, L&L celtic Autumn and a stitched piece that we did earlier in the year on my group, all this came along with such a beautiful card. Thank you hun, you really really made my day today!!

Last night y eldest daughter cut my hair. Normally i will just have a trim but last night i wanted something different and had it all chopped off to just above my shoulders. It feels loads better for having it done.

I have added in a new photo of my latest finish. It is a TIAG free angel from 1989. I didn't stitch her all because she is going to a home where the recipient isn't a stitcher and she likes her just the way she is. All i need to do now is 'finish' her into an ornament.

I have also started the 1997 freebie today but I haven't got too far with her. I am finding her a little hard to stitch as she is being done on darker fabric than i would normally use but that is ok the colours pop on this fabric and that is what i wanted to happen.
