Stash arrived today!

How exciting. I got my package from The Rocking Horse today. Everything I ordered except a couple of Crescent Colour threads were there. These are the goodies I received.

The list goes:
THE PRIMITIVE NEEDLE - Hornbrook Angel, and Yule Game Board charts. LA D DA - Harvest Angel chart. LITTLE HOUSE NEEDLEWORKS - My Needle's Work (threads included), and Home of a Needleworker (Too!) charts. SHEPHERD'S BUSH - Dashing, Come, Green Snowman, and Soft Spring kits. Some Wisper thread (pale beige heather), and Crescent Colours threads.

Mum's order was included also. Here's what she got.

SHEPHERD'S BUSH KITS - Christmas Treat Bag, Shepherd's Scissor Fob, Violet Roll, Americana Roll, Shepherd's Roll, and Snow Treat Bag. She loves how everything's included in these kits to finish them. She also got the same Wisper thread that I ordered.

So I went to Mum's and Dad's this afternoon to drop off her stash. She was quite happy with it all.

You'll notice the difference in the colour of these two photos. I was reading Nicole's blog before and she wrote about taking photos. She said to take them in natural light then you'll get a better shot. How true this is. Mum's stash was taken in the morning, and mine was taken in the late afternoon. There's quite a difference in the lighting. I could have used the flash on the camera, but most of the time I like natural looking shots. Though I don't mind the warm glow my stash pic has. The only thing is it's not a natural colour.

I checked my emails before, and I received one from The Silver Needle saying they don't have any Little House Needleworks Thread Gathering kits left. These are a limited edition so now I'm worried I won't find a shop that still has some. More searching is required for this one. I'm determined to get it now. Isn't it the case? I've seen it for a while and thought it would be nice to get, but didn't do anything about it. Now I've decided to get it, I feel I may have left my run too late. Stay tuned...
