The place where all the cool stuff is…

my stash. 😉

Yeah, I went shopping. Problem? Didn’t think so.

Marie Antoinette. Oh yes. Floss toss on Silkweaver’s African Daisy. Planning to start soonish.

Quilty magazines & JCS (it has a Brooke’s Books which makes it an auto buy). My problem is I spend too much time inspired, too little time doing.

This little pretty followed me home too. The scissors are what’s shown in the cover model, I had hopes they could pull double duty in my Snow Queen’s Slipper set. But they don’t quite work. *sob* I guess I will just have to buy another pair of scissors. Tragic.

I do have a bitch about this chart, Samplers Remembered suggests that you use Valerie Lejeunne’s book for your initial (it’s largely hidden in the model photo). A book that costs $52.00. Of course you can use whatever source you want (& the designer does say that too), but I am less than impressed with the suggestion to go buy another designer’s work if I want my finished project to look the model that I just paid $35.00 (the case was included) to buy the chart for.

A few gals I know from quilt groups had a craft show today (mighty fine quality) and a few more small pretties followed me home. The long johns are the *cutest* thing ever. There’s a flap in the back and when you lift it there’s a little slit to tuck some paper money in.  Took me about 10 minutes to pick a pincushion, they were all so cute, but I think this one had the most beads – so it became mine. The black & pink wallet is business card sized, now I’ll have somewhere to put cards instead of floating around loose in my purse.

And I’ve finally finished those damn fish.
