Recent Stash
I took on a part time job this year around xmas for the holidays so that I could get money for stash. Not that I couldn't have got stash out of my savings but why when you can earn it and spend freely?

So, most recently I managed to pick up some nice things from Paris when I was there:
Repertoire des Frises by Valerie Lejeune
Savoir-Faire Valley - Coeur Pause Cafe
Les Bonheur des Dames - #1082 a red and white chart with teacups, teapot and plate
Pique & Pique - Collection Les Moutons (couldn't pass up the sheep, but managed to pass up quite a few other sheep...
Rouge du Rhin - Tradition II (doesn't seem to be online yet)

And I did manage to spend into the 3 digits at my LNS while Terry was here visiting but why don't I quiet remember what I purchased?
There were two Lanarte Mucha kits: Quill and Primrose where my big purchases. I know I also got some threads just because I like them and a couple of smaller pieces like the mini scenic kits by permin.

More Stitch Finishes
With all the time I'm spending at home with Flour, I've been reading and stitching a lot. Both things one can do when you need to drop everything and run to take her outside, or when too late, clean up a mess.

Wooly Zipper by Bent Creek,

wooly zipper

have had the kit for ages and ages and never did get around to it until now. Lovely to work on since the fabric is such low count.

Subversive cross stitch my sister got me one year... again, never thought I'd do it, but oh, what the hell, I'll stitch just about anything easy these days.

And this lovely kit from my first trip to France,

les copines

les copines by Rue du Port.
