This turned out to be an interesting weekend. The weather was beautiful..sunny and warm. We really needed that sunshine after so much rain!
On Friday, I stopped at Acorns and Threads on my way home because I had an expiring "20% off any one item" coupon burning a hole in my pocket. You would think it would be so easy to spend...but, no! Everything I was looking for was not there. And then I started getting picky about what to buy. It was a little disappointing, but I ended up using the coupon for "Maxim & Zoya" which was on my wishlist and got some threads and two cottage designs that were waiting for me. And then I realized yesterday that I am missing one Anchor thread for a round robin, so I guess I will have to go back tomorrow...and how much do you want to bet that I find lots of stuff to buy then?
I planned on stitching all weekend, but Saturday morning found us out and about running errands...hair color, passport photos, oil changes, groceries...before I knew it the afternoon was upon us and my daughter called to see if we could watch Asher for the night because she got called in to work an extra day. Lots of fun, but not much stitching!
I did get a few things done though. I finished a Workbasket freebie called "Pink Flower" that I received in a freebie kit exchange, started Band 2 of "Dawn of Spring", started my April ornament, and did 99.9% of the stitching for my part of a round robin that I will be sending out this week. And then I couldn't find my camera :(...so I will get that last thread and try to make some more progress tonight and tomorrow, and then take some pictures...I'm sure the camera will turn up someplace!
I hope all you other hermitters had a productive weekend...can't wait to see your pics!

ReplyDeletewell you sounded like you were really busy the whole weekend.....oooo hope you find that camera .. I want to see your stitching heheh ... take care and catch up with you soon :) love mouse xxxxx
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had a VERY productive weekend! Maybe not all stitching, but still, the little stitching things you got done are all checkmarks on your big list of stitching to-do's!
ReplyDeleteFor someone who had little time to stitch you got a whole lot done - fantastic!
ReplyDeletehugs, Kaye xoxox
Good luck on catching up on your stitching. My only grandchild lives on the other side of the country. You are very lucky , I would happily give up a night of stitching to baby-sit him!
ReplyDeleteSounds like it was quite the productive weekend!! Hope you find your camera!!
ReplyDeleteIt was hermit weekend, but as you noted the weather in our state of Oregon was SO nice, I was outside gardening most of the time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a busy weekend you hade, Lynda and so much fun!! Find that camera. ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great weekend. Who wouldn't love a stashing experience?!? :)
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda - I like Acorns & Threads too! It's a great place to shop. I was wondering how you got a coupon - that would really come in handy for shopping! Kate (kcarr@schabe.com)
