Stitching Progress

I continued stitching on the garden angles.

This is all that can be done until I get the Kreinik thread for the wings.

On New Year Eve I pulled out Earthdancer to stitch and found a hole in the material.

Close up of holes in the material.
So, then I pulled out Crystal Tree. This is what it looked like.

By January 3rd this is what it looked like. I was trying to complete the first page, but ran out of one of the DMC colors on the last row. So close!!! And of course it wasn't one of the colors that I have extras of.
Before going to bed I found the pattern Crafty Cat by Margaret Sherry, pulled all the threads and material. I hope to start on it today.
I am trying to stick to my list so far so good.

In 2007 I was at Shari's house stitching and she had asked me how much I spend on postage each year. I really didn't know. So in 2008 I kept track and the total for 2008 is... $194.70
I was in two birthday card and floss exchange-either of them was big so maybe $15.00 in postage.
I was in SFE and spent maybe $50.00 in postage.
The rest would have been for games and prizes for the group.
