March Stitch for Stash and Giveaway

I did really good on mt spending this month.  I only spend $4 for a pattern from Stoney Creek.  I had forgot to grab last month's freebie and since I am in the middle collecting the series, I grabbed February's pattern with March.

Now on to the stitching progress.  I have 2 small finishes I can not show yet.  I do have 2 other finishes and a mini finish to show.

My mini finish is finishing page 2 of Autumn Encounter.  I love how it is coming out.  I hope to start page 3 soon.

 I received this lovely pinkeep from Shari.  The exchange was during the Olympics, to stitch a pattern of your choice but to add a metallic touch in gold, silver or bronze. She included a beautiful notecard.  Shari did a great job Thank you Shari!

 I received this lovely chick dish towel from Lynda in my pens ans needles yahoo group.  It is so adorable!  It is hanging on my stove handle now. Thank you Lynda!


My Giveaway

I am giving away the first 3 patterns of the Little House Needleworks Calender Girls~ January, February and March.  They are unmarked so you can stitch them easily.  Just post a comment you wish to be entered.

On April 4, I will pick a name using Random.org.  I will ship international too.

One more note, I am putting my stash on sale.  I made a page for my stash.  I am tire seeing it and collecting dust.  I will be adding more stuff soon.  

Until next time, Vicky
