The only ones I can buy are the JCS Halloween and Christmas ornament issue. No more RRs and trying not to do exchanges either. I can have new starts but they have to be what is in my stash already. I think we can meet our challenges.Shelleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070148845148831331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1865121664017247301.post-74103635911123345362011-11-01T11:15:39.848-07:002011-11-01T11:15:39.848-07:00Hi Rachel - I totally get what you mean about the ...Hi Rachel - I totally get what you mean about the stash-buildup... I think that last year, or maybe the year before, it was myone and only New Year's resolution not to get more stash (with a few loop-holes - like it was all right if I took a class, or getting limited edition stuff, or getting floss etc, if I would run out...). I did well for about 4 months and then I fell right back into it. I'll try this year again - thinks for reminding me!<br />From now on, if I really want something, I should get into my stash and root around for a while - seeing that it cojntains a lot of stuff that I used to "really want"... LOL <br /><br />DH told me yesterday that he would make a deal with me; if I finish 10 kits/projects, I get to buy 5 new ones. Not too bad huh!? You could do something similar - finish 10 and get 1 new as a reward? I think that'll be my new carrot - "The 10-to-1 Rule"!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06230891840459730672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1865121664017247301.post-49360370510383273862011-11-01T10:54:05.500-07:002011-11-01T10:54:05.500-07:00I heard that you had snow!

When did I acquire a mini NS????

The snow was so heavy and wet that the mini-deck on the neighboring townhouse came loose from its moorings on one side and is hanging at a crazy angle from the second story. Happily, we removed our mini deck years ago, putting a bay window where the sliding doors used to be. The one good thing about the early snow was that I did get more stitching than usual done ... check out my blog to see some ornament finishes and some WIP progress.rionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07141923797221351378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1865121664017247301.post-13070063032385750642011-10-31T10:34:35.773-07:002011-10-31T10:34:35.773-07:00Good luck on your decision to not keep aquiring to...Good luck on your decision to not keep aquiring too much stash! I have pared down my buying to only things I absolutely love...which is hard to do with so many great designs out there. If only I could stitch 24 hours a day I might get through half of my stash in my lifetime! lolNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03312699459116007838noreply@blogger.com
