Stash and Mystery Sampler Sal

Hi all,

I've spent most of the week working on the ''secret'' project for hubby, which I will be able to show you after I give it to him on Father's Day, but I also have a small update to show you, the second part of the Mystery SAL organized by By the Bay Needleart:

Funny how things are sometimes, this is not something that I would have chosen to stitch on my own, but now that I am doing it I am really enjoying it. It is quick, cheerful and thoroughly enjoyable :)

I also got some new fabrics in this week, here is some stashy porn:

These are the goodies I won in a game on crossstitchforum.com (thanks again Sam!):

And this is the result of Melanie's giveaway:

She is such a sweetheart, she enclosed some extra goodies to help my rebuild my stash. Make sure to visit her blog here, she has some gorgeous projects going on.

And finally, I won two ebay auctions, where I got a piece of hardanger fabric and a smallish cut of beautiful purple mottled jobelan for dirt cheap. Obviously the photo doesn't do it justice, 'cuz that would too much to ask, right?

Oh, and this weekend is time to hermit!!! Don't forget to sign up for IHSW here.

Keep on stitching, peeps!
