Fantastic!! I love Halloween Banners & the Christmas ornaments Pals!! I've been drooling on these for a while but have not yet bought them :D
So looking forward to seeing your progress on these!
You are doing great with the SFS! I don't blame you for spending on those, they are lovely!
Such cute snowmen!! I collect them as ornaments...but for some reason it never dawned on me to stitch them as well!! Hmm, thanks for that!
That little dragon is so cute. And I love the Halloween banners, they would be a perfect gift for a friend, off to check them out.
Lovely charts!! Great going on everything- saving,spending and stitching :)
Well done on stitching to budget. Love your new stash, sometimes we all need a little retail therapy.
Yay! I'm glad someone else will be working on them since mine aren't getting much love ATM. They're a pretty quick stitch there's really no confetti and I'm eager to start mine again. I've been debating getting those ornaments since I saw them on Katie's blog as well lol. Good progress :)
Great new stah, Rachel. we sometimes just need that, so don't feel guilty about it.
Oh great new stash. I love the Christmas Pals. Glad I could enable you. The other two you got enabled me but I'm not falling for it.....yet.
