Gorgeous stitching stash




Some gorgeous fabrics and thread were delivered by my postie today.  I bought them from The Crafty Kitten, one of them is the mystery box with February's colour selection.  You can choose your fabric and the fabric count but I asked to be surprised and left the decision with Dawn.  I got a lovely piece of 28 count Jazlyn in a beautiful Amethyst colour - it's so pretty.  Also in the mystery box is a skein of Classic Colorworks in Pixie Dust, a skein of Dinky Dies, some Kreinik metallic thread and some beautiful Mill Hill glass pebble beads.  Everything is beautifully colour co-ordinated.



I had also ordered a couple of smaller pieces of fabric for a couple of future projects, one of them being an engagement present which I will start on once the baby sampler is complete.  One is a piece of 28 count Jobelan in Icicle and the other is 28 count Lugana in Champagne Bubbles.  I also ordered some of Crafty Kittens own hand dyed thread to try out in Raspberry Crush and Lavender Skies.


Having worked with Dawn's fabrics before I know I will enjoy working with these and it will be nice to try out some different threads too.
