Well almost.
I hope this post finds you all well and that you have enjoyed a peaceful Christmas. We have had quiet, family time so far ~ New Year celebrations are ahead of us and we will be spending time with my Sis2 and her DH who from here on in shall be known as McBiL ~ being my brother in law who resides in Scotland.
GB1 has been home from university ~ his final lecture was December 13th, however he was committed to work until 19th when we collected him to bring him home. With the studying/revision he has needed to do and also working back in his old Costa store we've seen very little of him. It's still been lovely having him home ~ not sure that GB2 agrees!
I've signed myself up for stitching only from stash during 2014 ~ check out my page link across to the right ~ I've made a start listing the charts/kits that I have in my stash and as you will see there is plenty to keep me going! I'm sure I can do this, do you fancy giving it a try?
I'm watching The Holiday again while sorting out fabric for my New Year's Day start ~ Home of a Needleworker by LHN. I already had the thread pulled and stored in the pattern wallet so it seems like an easy option. I may even make 2 starts as I am planning to stitch a Christmas piece a month ~ with this in mind I have The 12 Days of Christmas Parts I & II from The Little Stitcher so my 2014 ornaments will be themed.
Being reasonably certain that I won't be posting again this year I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all for reading my meagre posting efforts this year ~ I'm hoping that I will be better at updating my blog in 2014.
Here's wishing you a Happy, Healthy & Stitchful New Year.

Stitching only from stash in 2014, hmmm. Does that mean I've got three days to go shopping? ;)
Have a very happy New Year
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family. Look forward to seeing your stitching from stash progress in 2014.
A lot of ladies seem to be stitching from stash Kate next year, I have so much it seems sad that it justs sits in the drawer, I did it this year and only bought a few items so will be carrying on again next year.
Wishing a Happy 2014, I hope its a good one for you!
Mm, think I am going to join you, Kate! Will head over to Mel's blog now!
Maybe we should hold each other accountable on the small matter of regular blog posting, lol!
Hi Kate,
I too have decided to stitch from stash (gulp!!)hoping to do one a month from the 12 days and try and make it a christmas year if you could see (just)my Christmas charts you would be amazed -I was. A very happy new year to you and yours , you will have to e mail me your married name as I cannot continue using your old one lol.
go for it girl ... I am planning to do it as well but if I do buy new chart it will go into the rotation ...lol
Happy New Year to you and yours too and hope it is full of finishes and new starts :) love mouse xxxx
We can cheer each other one Kate in the Stitch From Stash. I'm hoping I can keep it up. I do have autos to finish but Mel has allowed for that.
Barb and I are stitching one a month of the 12 Days too. I just fell in love with them after seeing Carin stitching them on her blog.
Happy New Year!
Happy Healthy New Year to you and your family.
I made the same promise... stitch what I've in my big stash!
Bisxxx
