Christmas Stash (for Berit because you asked so nice:) )

These 2 are from my DD :) I love them !!! She also gave me $$ to pick out some other designs I wanted.

And all this stashy goodness is from my dear hubby :) WOOHOO!! Lot's of BBD, LHN and Homespun Elegance :)


My mom also gave me stash but in GC form so I HAVE to go shopping...LOL!! I can't wait!!

I can't decide what to stitch...that's when you know you have too much stash :) BUT I wouldn't change a thing!!!! I love my stitching/passion more than anyone can know :) and I love walking into my stitching room and knowing I have my own little LNS :)
I think I will try to make a decision and squeeze at least one more finish in this year-I usually take my decorations down today-but DD's boyfriend is really enjoying them so I may leave them up until he leaves on the 5th of January (don't hold me to that though as I always like to get my house back in order after a month and a half of Christmasy stuff:) )

Wishing you all a great upcoming New Year :) I am looking forward to continuing our friendships and hopefully meeting some new friends as well :)
Much love and Many hugs from SC :)

OOOooooh! What wonderful stashy goodness! Lucky you to get such yummy stuff from your family! Hope you have a great holiday!

Ooooo what a lovely dilemma you have, decisions, decisions LOL. Pop them in a bag and draw them out as a lucky dip - no peeking though tee hee, have fun.

CalamityJr said...

The glow from the tree lights are so cozy and comforting, though - just feel that you're leaving them up for Epiphany, and it won't seem so bad.

Your stash gifts are amazing. Do you keep a list, or do they just know you so well they can choose the right patterns for you? However they did it, your family did a great job!

Laura said...

Great stash! I received some exciting stash too and my Mom secretly framed some of my finished pieces!!! It was so exciting! I always love to visit your blog and see what you are up to! So much fun!

Michelle said...

How wonderful - now that is definitely my sort of Christmas gift! How lucky. Enjoy stitching each and every one of them xxx

Mary said...

Merry Christmas Becky!
It looks as if you had a wonderful one. You received beautiful stitchy gifts... any chance a subtle "hint" that the gifter might be hoping for one of your "bee"utiful finished treats?
Enjoy the GCs...there's so much out there to have fun with! Decisions, decisions, what's first, what's next.....:)
*HUGS*

Maggee said...

Happy After Christmas Becky! What a great haul of stitchy goodies you received! You are loved! I am enjoying having family here, and possibly being snowed in for a couple of days! The grandkids are loving it! Hugs.

GoldenAngelsWorks said...

WHat a lucky lady.... look at all that stitchy goodness.... and to have the ability to go shopping for more is even better.

My hubby thinks I have alot of stitching stuff.... but I keep telling him I do not have even half of what you and my other stitching friends have. LOL

Myra said...

What beauties you are going to be making with those Becky! Unusual snow for us here in the South but it sure is pretty. :o)

Solstitches said...

What a lovely display!
You can never have too much stash ;)
Enjoy the shopping trip to spend your gift card.

Deb said...

Holy Moley what a lot of stash, but really great stash! You're going to have hours and hours of stitching pleasure!!

I'm with you on the Christmas decorations - I'd like to rip them down today, but I think the rest of the family would be upset if I did that. Maybe in a couple days....... :o)

Ann said...

What wonderful Christmas stash! My DH (known as Santa around this time of the year) kitted up 4 of the Gay Ann Rogers ornaments for me as part of my Christmas so I'll be getting one of those started soon. Christmas stash certainly is wonderful, isn't it?

Oh, and my decorations never come down until January 6th. We keep the old Creole (French) ways, celebrating all 12 days of Christmas...

Faye said...

The stash looks awesome!!! Snowy wishes to you!!

Lesleyanne said...

Great new stash. Have fun picking a new one to start.

Ellen said...

Great stash! Enjoy stitching thro' your stash in 2011!

Happy Holidays!

Tricia said...

Oh, what fun! I love seeing everyone's new stitching stashes!! And enjoy your gc, too! I never can decide whether to spend it right away, or wait until I need some "retail therapy" cuz then it's so fun to go shopping for free. :-) Have a lovely time with your family!!

Lynn said...

Lots of oohs and aaahs for all that pretty stash! Your family are excellent shoppers. I can't wait to see which one you pick to get started.

Andrea said...

What wonderful stash gifts you received :) I have a couple of those myself and am working on one now!
Loved all of your snow pictures...so beautiful! Last year, we got snow on Christmas Eve...very, very rare for Dallas. It was so wonderful! Even though we didn't get any snow this year, Christmas was magical :)

xoxo

Lisa V said...

Looks like you have lots of lovely things to stay in and play with during the snow. I can't wait to see how you finish some of your new things

Ginny said...

How wonderful that your family gets you charts for Christmas. I gave up even putting them on my wish list. Keep warm and safe, and happy stitching!

You received so many goodies, Becky--exactly what I would have chosen :)

Wishing you and your family a very special new year...

You received some wonderful stash. You must have been a very good girl this year. ;-) Have fun with all your goodies!

Joy said...

I have not commented for a while but I have been peeking! :-) You have posted some lovely finishes and I just adored them. Your DH picked out some great stash items...go girl! LOL Happy New Year & look forward to seeing what you inspire us with in 2011!

BrendaS said...

Love all your stash you got. Can't wait to see what you use your GC for:))))

Isn't it great having your own personal LNS in your house?:))))

I took all my Christmas stuff down yesterday and it feels great!

Happy New Year!

HUGS TO YOU.

Melissa said...

What a wonderful stash haul! Have fun deciding which to start first!

Happy New Year, Becky!

Belated but heartfelt wishes to you for all the joys of the season, dear Becky!

Nancy M said...

Great stash, my family wouldn't have a clue what to get! I did just get Snowflake Serenade from a friend. I'll have to see if you stitch it first and how you finish it!

Berit said...

That is awesome! Thank you for sharing :D

Do you keep a wish list at the LNS for them to shop from? :o

I also really love your banner right now--what a sweet vignette.

Shelleen said...

how lucky to receive stash. I would love to get a basket of charts, fabric or floss.
I leave up my tree til January 1.

Pointed Stitcher said...

I am laughing as I'm reading your post because I often say I am my own LNS. I love your stash, what great gifts. Looks like you had a great Christmas.

Pete's Pixie said...

Becky - you surely must love the Christmas season! What an incredible house you have decorated to the hilt for Christmas. Here in the UK we take the tree and decorations down on Twelfth Night (6th December) so mine will be up for a few days yet. I have had a thorough trawl through your blog and admire your finishes - one day I will aspire to being as good a "finisher" as you are! Love and hugs for the festive season, Ally in Scotland xxx

Michelle said...

What lovely stash!! Happy New Year!
