Never a mistake to have more than one either! I figured out a long time ago that it works much better for me to buy stash as I find it, not for particular projects. Then I can shop at home when I'm in the mood to get something started.:)audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102559813211702736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777082361967445123.post-56782478729281983822016-03-28T01:14:58.525-04:002016-03-28T01:14:58.525-04:00Enjoyed reading about your projects!

You've done really well. The wooly baskets are coming on well and I do like the white work. I'm interested to see the total effect of that one, especially with your new fabric.<br />I hope your Easter stitching is going to plan and provides a quiet break. I managed to get quite a lot of stitching done as well as visiting family.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05076197012454643657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777082361967445123.post-64270327876621665602016-03-27T16:24:28.338-04:002016-03-27T16:24:28.338-04:00Your Little Wooly Basket turned out beautifully.

I also really like of your neutrals. Hmmm ..., there may be an on-line shopping trip coming soon. Great start on the white on white Vintage Blooms.<br /><br />I hope that you're having a pleasant Easter Sunday stitching and relaxing.

I hope your Dad comes through whatever is stressing you out.<br /><br />I am staying busy with lots of yard work and a "new" Singer 301.

Why not reincarnate some of those older wool jackets into awesome baskets. I haven't seen white work. It's a great low volume project. Adding fabric to the stash and then finding a project is generally my way of designing too. It feels good to fill your stash with fabrics you love. It makes it fun to play.Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04492645548495218076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777082361967445123.post-55973352638868651712016-03-26T20:16:45.566-04:002016-03-26T20:16:45.566-04:00Interesting about your blanket stitch thread color...Interesting about your blanket stitch thread colors!
