Color Me Inspired

I got home from work today and found a package on my doorstep - the one I was waiting for from 123stitch.com.  I really do love them!  Seeing these charts is giving me my missing inspiration to get moving on Droids for Sale.  I mean, look at all of those colors!  Pink!  Green!  Blue!  Hardly any brown at all!  The faster I stitch Droids, the faster I can move on to these beauties.  Yipeee!

On the other hand, this weekend is turning out to be pretty busy.  This evening my husband and I are going to a fancy shindig.  It is one of those fundraiser auctions for our son's school.  It should be fun and I always like a chance to get dressed up.  However my good friend can't go as her daughter is sick.  So I will have to work a bit harder to be especially charming and make new friends.  Eek!

Tomorrow will include a trip to check out hot tubs (we are in the beginning phases of redoing our back yard), opening ceremonies for Little League and then another night out with the hubby to see Avenue Q (a Valentine's Day gift).  Whew!  Sunday will be a little more laid back, but there is still t-ball practice right in the middle of my nap time.  By the time Monday gets here, I will be ready for a weekend!

Wishful Stitching

Have you ever heard of Polstiches Designs?  In addition to some wonderful patterns, kits, and other stitchy supplies, they have the most beautiful hand dyed fabrics!  They dye their fabrics into these beautiful, swirly patterns of blues, purples, pinks, yellows, greens.  I have my eye on Icy Waters: blue with just a hint of purple and white.  I love it!

They come in Aida 14 and 16 counts as well as Lugana 28 and Jobelan 26 and 28 counts in a variety of sizes.  The prices are pretty reasonable too, for what you are getting!

I am still looking for just the right design to stitch onto it.  I haven't yet found a US distributor, so when I am ready, I will have to go straight to the source, but I think it will be worth it!
