I have´t been able to stitch for a long time now. We are still renovating the house we are moving to. But we enjoy the renovating and soon we will be moving in. This morning I hade a great surprise and I think things are going to work themselves out as time goes.

I hope you all have a great weekend. I´m going to enjoy the time with my friends at a scrapbooking fair.

I haven´t been cross stitching  since before christmas, but after talking to the ladies on the EMS forum I got inspired and started on a new kit. It´s the “Hang on kitty” from Dimensions. It´s really cute and I´t says alot about how I feal right now.

This is the progress I´ve made on it.

 

This weekend I have made some cards.

 

 

I´ve been playing with some distress ink, masks and stamps. I made a background for a layout  and some tags.

This past weekend I was in the fabric shop again with my husband. And I got some new quiltfabric.

 

This is the last fabric I can buy until december, because I´m  taking on a challenge that means I´m only going to use what I alredy have at home during the month of november. The only thing I can buy is thread.  I´m of course allowed to buy things for my business.

I´m doing two more challenges also. The first one was my husbands idea. I´m not allowed to buy cross stitch kits fore a year. I can only buy things if I´m doing a present fore someone or if I´m out of thread fore one of my WIPs. I took on that challenge because I have a lot of kits that I haven´t started.

The second challenge I made for my self. I love christmas and I tend to buy to much decorations. So this year I have challange my self to not buy any decorations for christmas. We have boxes full of decorations so I think I get through that. Mabye I will save some money on this challange.

This weekend I made som cards.

 

 

Today I got my new christmast stamps so ther will be some new cads this weekend.

Yesterday I made a pillow of th monogram that´s in one of my earlier posts. I´m realy satisfied with the result.

I´ve had lots and lots to do, with my  new business. Yesterday I got some time to go in to town an buy so fabric. I coulden´t resist them. They are for ouilting but I use al the kind of fabric for a lot of things. Have to put up some pictures of my sewing prodjekts.

Here are a picture of the fabrics.

Tomorrow I´m going to make a pillow of the monogram in my last post.
