It's that grand time of the month again. And for the first time this year, I actually have some stash spends to report! Me and my house mate made an order from 123Stitch and these are the goodies I received.
3 packs of clearance stickers to add to my Europe 2013 scrapbook. (I had to buy them immediately, in case the store ran out of the matching ones!)
32ct Light Mocha Belfast Linen
Country Cottage Needleworks - The Needlework Shop
Little House Needleworks - Miss Peepers
Just a small stash enhancement, but it really made me smile. I can't wait to get started on the new charts. So, my grand total was (not including posting and darn custom charges we were forced to pay) . . .
£21.81
Out of a total of £100 I could have spent this year, I've only spent £21.81 of it. I'd say that's a pretty good track record :) And I've still got plenty of items in my stash to work on, so I don't think I'll have to buy anything else this year, maybe just a couple of thread colours.
Onto the stitching update!
Current WIPs:
White Magic is coming along beautifully. I'm enjoying this piece so much, I've even got into the swing of the blended thread sections. I'm nearly half way through this piece, nearly onto the second set of pages.
Finished WIPs:
This is my latest finish - Country Cottage Needlework's The Tea Room. I hope to finish the three charts of this set that I have in order to frame them to decorate my new home in the summer. I don't quite know where I'll be living yet, but I know I'll have some pretty pieces to decorate it with!
I also finished up this cute hippo as a gift for my sister.
I'm nearly finished with my last assignments and then I've got a bit of free time heading my way. You can be sure I'll be spending lots of time stitching this summer!
Best wishes to all,

Great new charts!! I got some from 123stitch as Mother's Day present and like you had to pay to cover the Customs charges :(
I will really be careful next time I place a order!
Have a lovely weekend
Great job, Bekca!! I like your new charts!!!
Wow. Your White Magic is looking fabulous. I really must get round to doing at least one of my wolf kits this year. I need a few more days in my hours , lol .xxx
