Done for a while

Thank you all for your purchases.  I hope you'll be pleased with your fabrics!  I think I forgot to list a 27 x 36 and two 18 x 28, but I am done for a while.  That's a lot of work!  After looking at and measuring and folding the linen for days, especially with dry blurred eyes, I am hoping I did not miss any issues.  Please check your linen when you receive it and if there is a problem, please let me know.  Seriously.  I just couldn't do it any longer and trying to pull the right sizes and counts for multiple item orders wore my big ass out.  I also was surprised to see that the new higher rates of the post office also include a major change in First Class.  Previously, you could mail a package up to 16 ounces at the lower rate, but that changed back to a 13 ounce limit, no choice but Priority.  Well... beans.  Wasn't expecting that.  

 

Thanks again.

Thank you

Well that went quickly.  I had twelve requests clocked in at 7:00 and ten at 7:01!!!   All that is left is lonely #6.  The second sale will be tomorrow night (Monday) at 7pm EST.  I won't post again and the email subscribers will be notified tonight.  I remembered.  Prices are listed now, no limit on pieces.  If you plan to request, please state the count and exact size of the piece.  Thanks everyone.  Whew.

 

Envelopes are being delivered tomorrow and I will be at the PO on Tuesday for mailing.

This evening

 

All pieces for the second offering are now correct and posted on the Linen sale page with instructions for this evening.   I'm sorry I don't have the color names of the few that are not unbleached/raw, but you can email me with any questions. I will try to price the larger pieces and offer them Monday evening so orders can be combined.  You can't imagine the amount of time I've spent measuring and trying to work out the prices.  I am keeping the really large pieces and some others for specific samplers, and also much more than I will ever need.  If I change my mind, I can always offer those later.

Thanks!!

Sorry, I forgot

The sale of grab bags today will be held tomorrow.  Until I received emails scolding me, I forgot that the email subscribers only receive posts at the end of day, close to midnight.  I did not post the time of the sale yesterday, planned on doing that this morning, which leaves out a lot of readers that would not see the time until after the fact.  So I am posting now which will show up in your mail box tonight, that the sale will be Sunday at 7 pm EST.  I added two more grab bags.  The plastic mailers I ordered for shipping aren't coming until Wednesday and I would prefer using them rather than paper so orders may not mail until then.

There ya go!  Sorry, and thank you for reminding me. 

 

Lots of new stitchery being shown at the party in Nashville this weekend.  This sampler (Mahala Barber) from Fox and Rabbit Designs wins the prize for me.  What a border!  Love it, would never stitch it.

 

 

More my style and size is this one from The Scarlett House, Charlotte Murdoch 1815.  The small dogs are over one which usually stalls the deal for me.

 

 

I've only seen a few photos of the newest releases but did watch Theresa Kogut on floss tube.  She had quite a few designs both punch needle and cross stitch, another Santa may be in my future.

 

That's all I got today.  Hope your weekend goes well.  Snow for us tonight but just a few inches.  Feels like a manicotti day, filled with ground beef, mozzarella and spinach.  Last time I added too much spinach water over the shells made them a little bitter.  Recipe is in the index on the recipe blog. https://marlanco.blogspot.com/

The start

Hi.  THE SALE STARTS SATURDAY EVENING.  I just posted the grab bags and LBD pieces on the Linen Sale tab.  I thought you might like to browse the smaller pieces, see if anything is good for your stash.  I hope you find the prices reasonable, shipping is too hard to figure without knowing the zip and should be pretty low.  Priority envelopes are now over $7 and these envelopes will go first class.  I can estimate it for you if you send me your address beforehand. I will post again Saturday morning with the time of the sale.  No sales until then! 

 

The larger pieces will be a few days later.

What a mess I have here.

Petite Stitches

Free design from Pineberry Lane 2017

 

Double sided berry on 32 count, 1.5".

 

Previously stitched, finished by hand this evening after a half bottle of eye drops.

They aren't really helping so I'll need to get an Rx.

 

I listed the journals on a sale tab, Deborah I can't reply to your request.  Any other requests for info please use my email because 95% of comments are no-reply.  Google+ is ending this week, we'll see if that changes.

 

Have a good week.
