but doesn't prevent you from acquiring new projects. Not when they are this great. I haven't received a new sampler chart in a while and don't really need any, but when I saw this from Merry Wind Farm, I couldn't pass it up. Different. Small. Not complicated. Fits a standard frame but would make an excellent sack too. Plus, wool threads. I tried them once and my uncontrollable tension caused issues and breakage. Being sick has made me weak so maybe now's the time to try again!
I pulled colors for Notforgotten's Blue Belsnickle and will start after meds kick in, followed by Melinda's Ellen Ford. Click either title for their Etsy sites. I will order the wool threads this afternoon.
I want to mention that several readers have told me that they are no longer getting post updates through email. I have no idea why, but if you are having this problem, add your email again in the right side bar, or email me and I can add it to my settings so you will receive the posts.
Have a good day folks.

Yeah, we just can't stop cold turkey... there are so many facets to this craft... We can just acquire patterns for a time! I hope you love stitching this new one! After hopefully getting to be 100%! Hugs!
What a gorgeous sampler...no wonder you couldn't resist...my 1612 chart arrived yesterday and I'm going to hook it...still way too many charts in my stash needing a home...
I saw that Mary Wind design too. I love the red and green.
Thank you for keeping up on your blog Marly, I enjoy reading everything you post. Enjoy the weekend and have a Happy Halloween!
I hope you are feeling better today my friend. Your new chart looks great!
Every year I say...buy no more patterns until you make in dent in the stash. Then I remember hunting for a pattern that is no longer available because I waited. I just buy when I see something I want to do, so my stash is large. Who cares? I plan to live long enough to finish my stash, my Mother made 98! She was still quilting until age 96, arthritis. I must keep up the family tradition. Love the frame on the new sampler.
Hope you're feeling better!
That is a really pretty chart-I love the colors!
