hi
This just about sums up my week, I now have five skeins to label up, two Texel cross and three spun from oddments.
The only other thing I've been working on is my band sampler, I've now decided to incorporate Take a Stitch Tuesday into it so there in a patch of running stitch (week one) and pattern darning, butterflies in back stitch ( week two)
Band sampler patterns are Fox and rabbit sal 2017, Algerian stitch, Blackwork from The Gift of Stitch Magazine, Traditional Russian pattern from early 1800's, running stitch and pattern darning, cross stitch from TGOS, blackwork butterflies from TGOS and alphabet also from TGOS.
For anyone wondering, The Gift of Stitch was an Australian magazine that started in 2007 and ran for 70ish issues. I bought the full collection download a couple of years ago for around £25, maybe a little less and it proving to be a great resource.
In other accomplishments, a good friend came over and between us we managed to reduce the contents of my wardrobe by around half, filling the car with black bags of donations to the charity shop. The house clearance continues.
Speak soon xx

Nothing like a good clear out. We've got sheds all over the place that collect used clothing and I'm a regular at dropping stuff off. I need to do that again soon. I can't stuff another thing in my wardrobe. I've been on a ridiculous pajama buying binge.
