look what came in the mail!

my santa that i ordered during pfos' brenda stofft trunk show arrived this week! complete with stitch suggestions and threads!

it is so precious and i can't wait to get started once i start on the 5 million other precious projects that are calling my name in le stash. i was also pleasantly surprised to learn that i have been enrolled in their stitchers anonymous program due to my frequent orders with the shop. with my membership, i received this gorgeous project bag!

it is the perfect size! i feel like a stitchy celebrity or something!

...or maybe it's just this grande-salted-caramel-hot-chocolate that i'm drinking. 

a new purchase

pocket full of stitches is having a brenda stofft trunk show and i have been wanting this santa forever!

i love all of the "santa's wild rides" series, but the pig is my favorite.

even though i've been pretty good about not purchasing new canvases left and right, the trunk show discount made it impossible to pass up! i can't wait to get my needle into this little guy! 

princess and me pieces

with multiple shops having princess and me trunk shows right now (pocket full of stitches and needle nook of la jolla) i jumped at the chance to enhance my stash with these precious ornaments. princess and me is one of my favorite designers, i love that they include stitch guides and that each piece they make is a little work of art!

i love the hot air balloon santa, this will look so cute on my christmas tree!
