I have in my stash and that I want to stitch. I signed up for this club with The Needle House in 2009. The canvases are by A Collection of Designs and the guides are by Nancy Laux. I finished five of the ornaments during 2009 and then got distracted by other projects. Last week I pulled out the remaining ornaments and am presently working on them. Would like to get them finished before the Christmas finishing deadline.

Here is the green and pink ornament ready to go to finisher. Have six more to stitch.
I realized something during my big clean up - I have a fabulous stash. I love everything and want to stitch everything. I also realized that I can get caught up in the moment and buy something I really have no interest in. I will get the canvas and say, "Why did I buy this?". I will no longer buy on impulse. I will go home and after a couple of days if I still have to have the canvas I will then order it. All of the canvases I have sent to Fireside for sale were bought on impulse. I have not counted the number of canvases I presently have in my stash but a very rough guess would be well over 400. Some of these canvases are small ornaments, some
medium and a few large. Hope to stitch a few within the next year. Stay tuned and see how I do. Oh, this does not mean I am not going to buy anymore canvases. It just means I am going to be more selective in my purchases.
