A Few Snippets From Around the Web
I’ve been a bit busy with other work this week and I was feeling a bit disconnected, so I asked on the Stitching the Night Away Facebook page for everyone to post a link to something they posted on their blog this week. That way I could catch up with everyone all in one place. […]
Stash Buying Obsessions, Addictions, and More
I think no matter what your hobby is you end up with some kind of “stash” of supplies. Maybe crafters are just secretly hoarders in disguise. I’m sure you can relate here! In every other aspect of my life I am ready and willing to *throw it out* and not have all sorts of extra […]

This is Belted Kingfisher (left) and Green Kingfisher (right), both from Crossed Wing Collection. I’ll admit that bird cross stitch designs are […]
Stitchnmomma Hand Dyed Cross Stitch Fabrics
On Valentine’s Day after everyone had been sick and a week of not really stitching on anything I decided that a little stash acquisition was in order. Just as I the thought Stitchnmomma posted a reminder that there was only one day left on her 25% off fabric sale on Etsy and I remembered that […]
Joining the Totally Useless Stitch-a-Long
Affectionately known as the TUSAL ~ a stitch-a-long where progress is shown by display of your ort jar. I had made a note to join this SAL at the beginning of the year, and then promptly got distracted. And of course I remembered after I emptied my ort jar. So here I am starting with […]
