The Princess and the Pea by Jasmine Becket-Griffith is now mine! I love Heaven and Earth Designs!!!

I was also bad and got another one:
Four Seasons-1

I don't know what the fascination with stash is...I will NEVER in one lifetime ever finish all of these! I'm blaming this extravagance on my headache meds!!

The moment I saw Princess and the Pea I thought of you and was about to email you when I checked your blog and saw you already knew :)

Oh wow! That is stunning :) I'm not sure you can't finish all your stash...not the speed you stitch at :) I saw you update & even with headaches you had done loads :) and it's all so beautiful Keebs! Do you have a top five list of things from your stash that you want to do?

I love that design as well, it's so sweet!

I wouldn't worry about actually completing it all, I think of myself as a "collector" as much as a "stitcher", it helps me justify all my stash buying!

Thanks everybody! I'm so excited! I think once my little Highland girl is finished, Princess and the Pea is getting center stage with Sleepy Hollow!

Katy, as far as top 5, that's a hard one! I really want to start on my Haunted Mansion Stretching Portraits, but they are so large and complicated, I think I need to soften them up a bit.

Every once and a while I go through my stash and some stick out more than others, but the next time I look, I'm eyeing a completely different batch...it's mood driven.

Right now, Sleepy Hollow, Princess and Pea, Tanglewood, Belle of Bonaventure, and the first of my Stretching Portraits, Abigail Patecleaver, are calling my name. Next month, I could probably give you a different five.

I think HAED's have spoiled me against kits. I don't have a lot of those, but I can guarantee my bottom five are all kits (and probably all the Kinkade Disney's. I'll keep buying them, but will probably never stitch them (unless they finally release Sleeping Beauty).

I congratulate you on your extravagance! You picked some lovely charts.

Awesome charts. Stash is good it makes us happy. So don't worry just be happy. I have 4 seasons as well. When I stitch it (eventually) I'm going to rotate hanging the pic according to the season....hee hee!

I thought the exact same thing! Flip it according to seasons!!

Wow, those are both very pretty. Though I have to admit, I'm not sure what 'stash' means unless it's tucking something away in a corner. ;)

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
