Stitch from Stash - June update

£37.27 + €100

Well last month, my post had barely made it onto my blog when my finger accidentally slipped on sewandso.co.uk and ordered 3 pieces of fabric.  I wasn't sure which colour would be best so that's the reason for 3 pieces.  So that was £14.49


Then Thread Pickerz on facebook had some really pretty threads, so I thought I would try some.  That was another £9.30.  Oops!

Oh dear...and just when you thought it couldn't get any worse I bought a new Q Snap frame and some Sulky Sliver to try gridding with. That was another £13.45.  I wonder if Mel would let me have another free month if I smiled sweetly?

I suppose I also should declare that I have signed up for Gaynor's (StitchersAnon) cross stitch retreat next year too. The stitching retreat is a bargain at 100 Euros.  I am so excited already, and it's not until May next year!

***Edited to add***
I have just received Bothy Threads Cut Thru Noah's Ark and Bothy Threads Kings and Queens but my mean, nasty husband (yes, Colin...that's you!) has put them away for Christmas.  I also received £10 of threads from The Patchwork Rabbit today seeing as we have extra money this month.  This has been added to my total above.

*****Edited yet again*****
Q Snaps don't count!!!!!  So I get to take £9.95 off my total.  So that brings it down to £37.27

Your fabric is all so pretty! I'm sure you'll put it to good use!! And I don't think the q-snaps count... so you didn't spend quite as much!

The finger slip happened to me too this month! I bought a Qsnap but only because I was going through previous emails from Mel and she said Qsnaps are exempt because they are a tool. So you can feel better about your your shopping spree!
