TUSAL and Other Fun Stuff!

First up is my Tusal jar! Its pretty full, the top threads being mostly from my sampler.

I've made progress on my sampler! I call it Matts house because that's where the groom comes from. So, Matts house now has windows! Some people have asked me the name of the sampler. It is "A Sweeter Love" by Plum Street Sampler.

Last but not least are these goodies I got in the mail today from my friend Danielle! She has turned to the dark side of needlepoint amd has passed me some cross stitch stash! Two cute zip bags, a sampler magazine, and two mirabilia charts. Also, some time ago she started working on Peony Garden which I always drooled over when I saw it. She decided to send me her wip, the threads, and beads to finish her!

What a great start to this week!

Thanks so much for posting the name of the sampler - I had to look it up immediately and it is a real beauty! And you have done a great progress!

That stash is delicious - are you going to finish the WIP? It looks really pretty so far.
