Few little things and some stash !!:)

Thank you all for your wishes :) I so much wanted to personally reply to each one of you but it just didn't happen . I finished a cross stitch project but it is meant for an exchange so I cannot show it here .

Anshita made this wonderful card for me and also designed a cup and got it printed online :)


Isn't it cute ? She hasn't ever paid attention to how many spools are used in a sewing machine because she follows hobbies other than mine . She used perler beads to create the sewing machine and wrapped endless amount of crochet thread on the spools and near the needles :))

Raj cooked my favorite food in the evening , gave me some jewellery , a 12-slot earring box and loads of chocolates which I ate up :D I didn't take any pictures of those , even the above one I asked Anshita to take it for me as I was lazy to do my own job . He also ordered a cross stitch chart I asked for and some more are still pending to be ordered as I haven't shortlisted . Probably , they will merge with my own stash shopping :) We also played few games and enjoyed a great family time !

I went to a newly opened linen clothing store nearby and enjoyed seeing the colorful stacks . These aren't as such meant for cross stitching but for experimental basis I just bought two flax linens .


large spools of colorful threads at the billing counter


stacks of pure linen fabric

I am getting a consistent harvest from my single chilly plant .


I got some more plants from the nursery, will try to share next time .

Keep crafting !
Preeti :)

  1. That is the most beautiful card I have seen made by a teenager. I adore how she personalised the card with the love of your hobbies.Glad you enjoyed the day.
    The linen looks good. Tell me the name of the shop, I may try sometime.
    I have been complaining that how my tomato and chilli plants keep getting taller, sometimes flower but never bear a fruit.

  9. Beautiful gifts. Your daughter knows how to treat Mama right.
    What a great store with all of that linen. If it's not evenweave for x-stitch, you can still do regular embroidery on it or sew some wonderful clothes!
