It's the second to the last month of the Stitch From Stash challenge coordinated by Mel at Epic Stitching. The idea of SFS is to stitch from our stash to reduce spending.
I started the year off doing sooooo well. September, October, and November has not seen such greatness. While I did better this month than I did last month, I ended up buying more on stash. Although it doesn't count toward the challenge... I've sold quite a bit more than that on my stash-for-sale FB page than I've spent. So for me, it more than makes up for what I bought. So what did I buy? Behold....
The entire Snapperville series ~ Bent Creek |
Long Winter ~ Bent Creek |
13th Colony series ~ By The Bay Needleart |
Winter Cottage Boxer ~ Lizzie Kate |
Merry Minis ~ Waxing Moon Designs |
Winter Cove ~ By The Bay Needleart |
The Four Seasons chartpack ~ Lorri Birmingham |
Sheepish Seasons chartpack series ~ Full Circle Designs |
Total Spent: $43.50
New Starts from Stash: Christmas Ornie from JCS Ornament Issue, Sledding Friends Penguin
WIPs or UFOs worked on: Balloon Glow, Midnight Watch
Finishes: Sledding Friends Penguin

Until next time,

Hey my theory is if you are going to shop go all out and you sure did. Beautiful charts. I look forward to watching your progress.
That's a lot of stash! I actually spent some money this month. I got 51 skeins of DMC because Jo-Ann had a 25% off your total purchase coupon so I bought the colors I
thought I didn't have and somehow I'm still missing some. I also got the Craftways Christmas book.
Great shopping!!! I may have to take a couple of those off your hands when you're finished! :)
I just love that Snapperville series. I don't think I have ever seen it before. You got lots of great stash there.
All very cute - I really like the sheepish seasons ones - I hadn't seen that one before. Enjoy! and Happy Thanksgiving.

I love the charts you purchased!!!
Wonderful new charts to add to your stash Meari. Been thinking about you...sending you hugs and prayers still :D
HI Meari, great selection of charts. I have the Snapperland Autumn Farm series ready to go but I keep getting distracted.
Oh wow, you picked alot of great designs! I like all the Bent Creek Snapperville series too.
Nice stash additions Meari. If you are going down might as well do it in a big way! I am so glad I didn't do stitching from stash this year. I would have failed big time. I've been on a major stash enhancement all year. I blame all the enabling from the fb groups I am on lol.
You bought some great new stash, Meari... Let's face it chart collecting is a lot less expensive than some things others collect :)
Enjoy!
Great new stash, Meari!
Lovely stashing, my favorites are the snapper series and Winter Cove.
I am glad you are happy with all your stash! LOL...........can't wait to see them stitched. :)
Hugs,
Sue your SM
