Shopping Spree!

Where do I begin? I had three, count 'em 3, gift certificates to the Silver Needle. And I spent 'em.

• Medeiros Needlecraft Design "Counting Sheep Basket" (punchneedle)
• Fancy Work "Lavender Rose Sweetbag" (must check to see if this is a dup--and put my chart database on google)
• Finger Work, "Whale Hunting"
• Plum Street Samplers, "Dead Man's Chess" (for the dude!)
• La-D-Da, "Sweet Dreams" (for the SIL's bebe; shouldn't it be born already?)
• Workbasket, "Bunny Attitude"
• Artful Offerings, "Oh No! More Snow!" (punchneedle)
• Raise the Roof, "Off the Deep End" saw this done up and it is fabulous!
• Nostalgic Needle, "Mermaid Tapestry"
• Sisters and Best Friends, "Five O'clock" (for my cousin)
• flosses for a few projects
• Weeks Wool, Angel Hair herringbone (to make an ipod cozy)

We got giant grab bags one night. None of us kept all of the charts, rejects got passed around and around, and I think they all went home with someone. These were the keepers that I found:

• Erica Michaels, "Signs of Summer"
• 4 My Boys "Autumn Square" (a pumpkin!)
• Mosey 'n Me "The Flowers"
• La-D-Da "My Spotted Pony" (for my littlest niece)

And some freebies:

• Prairie Schooler, Rain
• Glendon Place, Eggcellent Easter Scene
• Drawn Thread, First Snow
• SamSarah, A Posy Heart
• Little House Needleworks, Summer House
  

Should I quit my job just to stitch?
