I promised pictures of the goodies that I was lucky enough to pick up while I was at market. While this is not everything, most of it made it into this picture. (Sorry if it is a little dark, we've had rain for the last four days and also got caught in the Tropical Storm Nicole remnants so my lighting is less than desirable.)
Not pictured are some additional charts from Raise the Roof, Miss Crescent's Crowne and Sam Sarah as well as a Jenny Bean T-Shirt from Shakespeare's Peddler. I also came home with some Crescent Colors Cottons and Belle Soie. YUMMY!!! (Thank you dearest
Sharon!!!! Kisses!!!!)
Lately, I've really been into Lakeside Linen and I've got quite the stash to prove it. However, I've seen many of you using linen from Picture This Plus. So, since I was unlucky lucky enough to have them just down the hall, I took a quick peek. After seeing all of the delicious colors I knew I had to give it a try. I was good and I came home with only one stitcher's half. I don't remember the name of it off the top of my head, but it is a lovely shade of lilac in 36ct..... (I know, it looks a little grey in this picture, but the color in the picture above shows up a little better.)
This is one of my favorite pieces from the show..........
It is a birth sampler from Chessie & Me. After I read the saying I knew I had to have it. It says "When you were born, you cry and the World Rejoices" "May you live in such a manner that when you leave this earth, the World cries and You Rejoice". Quite lovely, don't you think? I thought it was a perfect sampler to add to the stash so that I'll have it on hand when the time is right.
Speaking of the time being right, I think that it is time for another giveaway. I picked up a couple of goodies from market just for you.......my dear blogging buddies. It will be a surprise as to what it is, but I will say that I did buy duplicates because I had to have it for my stash as well. I'm also going to include a few bits of fabric and a chart or two from my personal stash since I had to make room for my new goodies. (Hubby's orders!)
