Stitchin' Stash

Thursday I took some time for myself and went to my LNS. I was on the hunt for a specialty thread and school starts up next week. My big guys were home so no worries about a get-home time. So I figured I had better "take the gift and go." 

Shortly upon arrival I was surprised to find out that the shop is closing in 3+ weeks and with that news came the knowledge that all in the store was 27% off. I think I puttered around in the tiny shop for over an hour and a half. It was bliss! I had fun talking to a wise, seasoned stitcher who works there as well as two other customers who came in. I love learning from those who have perfected their craft and it made me see how I have a need to connect with other stitchers.

This was the one thing I went for:

And here are some of the lovelies I picked out:

I love yellow and this was just calling my name. It was marked down and then the shop lady gave me the 27% off too.

                                                       Threads, of course!

 

                                                     Several charts...

 

I kept going back to these Lizzie Kates and finally decided they will be gifts.

A rather BIG pile of goodness!

And a rather thankful heart!
