First things first, get it out of the way. I have walking Pneumonia again. Doctor seems to think I need tubes in my ears. I last had tubes when I was 6. May have to do it again to stay well.. But the upside is more stitching for me, if DH will quit calling to check on me about every 2 to 3 hours.. lol
Terri / Dixie Samplar came up my way this weekend! We had a great visit Saturday. We went to Michael's, Hobby Lobby and hit a couple of Antique and Flea Market type places. Had a great Mexican lunch and that night talked DH to joining us for Dinner at Chili's. So I guess you can say we made a whole day of it! I love it when Terri comes north, we have a great time.
She had me some of her great Butter Cream Linen. She hand dyes it yourself. She also put in some of fabrics she had dyed. I just love anything hand dyed.
The squares of linen had spooky names. Thank you Terri! She also gifted me with other things, I forgot to get a picture off. Next Post for sure. Brain has a fever..
This is just some of the things I got at the craft stores.
The stamps to age my stitching. The hang tags to use on some things, and the wooden thingie, well... I seen where someone had stained it and stitched and made the bigger end a pin cushion.
I could not pass up this deal of original price of 56.00 now on clearance for 20.00. I will use it for Needlepunch.
Of course, I got a pocket watch! lol and some fabric to finish some stitching. I also got some Evenweave Terri says she uses to dye. I will try my Black Walnut stain on it. We will see how it turns out!
I did purchase some leaflets and a kit off a Facebook Stash page. They are below:
I love The Birth Of A nation chart. Sandra's (HSE) Pumpkin will be the next thing I stitch.
That is all for today... Till later....

Great new stash!
Hope you are feeling better--if tubes are what it takes to maintain good health--go for it.

Gorgeous fabrics April and I love hang tags myself...I Can't get enough of them! They appeal to me! I use stamps too - to age my fabric. Mine looks like a bingo dauber though ;)
Can't wait to see what you got in the wings for us!
Feel better soon! Do you take added Vitamin C? I do, and I think it helps my immunity, but that could all be in my head too :)
