This is going to be a very quick update. I SPENT NOTHING LAST MONTH!!! I'm so proud of myself. I even won a chart in our challenge that I can't wait to stitch for myself. It's a Wizard of Oz chart and absolutely adorable! May will be different though. I have 2 babies to make samplers for and have very specific ones in mind. The fabric & most of the threads will come from stash but I'll have to purchase the charts. Faith, a very dear friend whose blog Faithfully Stitching always inspires me, had a very good idea. Since we are saving $25 a month by stitching from our stash, she is putting into a special account to use for Christmas. I think I'm gong to do the same! We'll have a nice little nest egg for Christmas presents, not a lot, but enough to do something special for the 3 of us. Well, that's all for now. Sorry this is so short, but we are in the process of moving & only have 2 days left.

Congrats Berly! I can't say the same; I do get an auto-send from Laurel of the LHN Calendar Girls, and I did buy a few charts from her when Laura and I visited her shop. HOWEVER, I, too am stitching from stash! I didn't even realize that is what I have been doing! LOL
