Month: June
Spent: 38.70
Earned: 22

I finished Sleepy Hollow today. Slightly over a month of work.



My stash for the month included some non-cross-stitch items.


And some kits.






I also finished 2 pairs of beaded earrings.




So onto a new project for the 2nd half of 2015.

    Great earrings and I recognize some of those purchases from the Herrschner's sale. :) I perused, but couldn't buy anything this time.

    Despite not being a fan of Halloween your Sleepy Hollow looks great on that fabric.

Eclectic update and more stash

Another busy week coupled with the fact that I spent the majority of my free time over the weekend working on my dress caused me not to have that much done on insanity. I did however manage to finish my three pumpkins this week (and had a full ball left over) and also started the snowman tonight as my brain was too tired to deal with insanity. Although I haven't managed to work on certain projects as I would like, I got more stash. I had to go to joann's to pick up thread for my dress last week.

I promised pictures and I have them. Two at least. I'll eventually get action shots but for now you can imagine what happens when I spin.

I had a long day at the competition, started at 10:30am didn't finish until probably 10:30pm. 61 dances, smooth and latin. Placed top 3 in all except one where I placed 4th. I'm not usually that tan and it still hasn't completely come off. And the white part of my french manicure is now a bit brown as well. I completely forgot to pick up the DVD I had asked to be taped and now will have to figure out how to get a hold of it. Overall I managed to win $600. Not anywhere near enough to cover the costs but more than I've won previously and should give my credit card a nice relief for next month. I had mentioned due to preparation for the competition, I wouldn't have much time for stitching. I was correct. Not

I finished page 5 of The Arab Tent last night. Three more full pages and one page of 5 stitches to complete the first row. I don't have much more of an update this week.
