The Opposite of De-stashing

Yep, I bought more than I stitched this week. HOWEVER, all these have been on my "to purchase" list for a looooong time! And can I just say that I adore Ebay?? I mean, c'mon! I always look for good deals on there and here are a few I'd like to share from this past week.

There's "Love Letter" from Full Circle Designs. It came with beads the the little love letter button. I snagged it for $5. I got (yes)another sheep design from Sisters and Best Friends, "Cold Toes, Warm Heart". This is another one I had previously sold while destashing and missed terribly. I'll stitch them this year. Then there's my favorite Stacy Nash Primitives Design, "Hallow's Eve Sampler Pillow", which I will not be making into a pillow! I got this for an incredible $2. Don't ask me how. I just bid and left it and won. Yaayyy me!

Here's a detail of the little letter button.

Now, there are times I lust and yearn for certain designs and a couple BlackBird Designs Loose Feathers fit that bill. Remember how you had to sign up for these babies? Well, I never did and will suffer eternally for it. BUT, I did snag one of my two favorite ones, "With My Needle", for under $6. I've seen them go for ridiculous prices on Ebay, but this time I happened to luck out.

If anyone out there would be willing to part with "Moon Garden", please let me know!

Now, I have to catch up on all your lovely blogs, becuase I know one thing---you ALL have been stitching, and posting, more than me this week, lol!

  3. Great bargains you snagged there, Tammy. They all look like lovely patterns. My Mum's done Love Letter and it's gorgeous! I want to stitch this too one day. :)

    I won't part with any of my stash just now, for one of the reasons like you've found, I may regret parting with it in the future. The thought of getting rid of anything brings me to tears. I admit, I'm just a stash horder.

  10. Great E-bay bargains! I'm afraid I'm in the same boat as you this week - I definitely bought more than I stitched. I actually think that I made negative stitching progress, due to a major frog fest on Monday!

  12. Ohhh, there has bound to be HELP for us somewhere out there! LOL But, the big question is...do we really want it???? Nope, not at all~not when it comes to adding more stash!!! I always have said that if I could stitch just half as fast as I can buy, I'd be in great shape. LOL Woohoo to you on your newest wins/goodies!!! Go Tammy, Go!!! Enjoy your new stash. Now, go and STITCH!
