Two ebay wins today :-) The first is directly from Silkweaver's own auctions, and is a pretty good sized belfast solo in a neat combinations of greens. The second is a fat quarter of Silkweaver's 36 ct linen in Golden Promise. That one is going to be just perfect for one of the samplers I have been wanting to stitch. I am so excited about these wins!
I got in some stash today :-) I received the order from Paw Prints that had the Ray of Light belfast for Taj Mahal Garden and the Petite Treasure Braids for one of the Celtic Ladies (at this point, I have to look up which one these are for now....). And, I got in some items from ebay too - the fat quarter of Amsterdam Blue belfast and the packet of Kreiniks and MH beads for Royal Holiday (forgot about them when I was taking this stash photo).

Well, the Yankees got what they wanted with their $200M payroll - they got the AL East title today - guess when you spend that kind of money, you can play crappy and get the title (they proved that!). Hopefully tomorrow the Red Sox can grab the wild card.

Stitched on today: Earth Angel

I almost forgot - Happy Birthday Ava! My "kitten" turned two today.... no more babies in the house now!
