Looky, looky, looky, at what I got in the mail today!!! I won Riona's Giveaway a few weeks back for a gift certificate to 123 Stitch. How I just loved pouring over the site, putting things in my wish list. Finally after a few days I decided on my purchase. I just added a few extra of my dollars and got these two charts that I have been eyeing for over a year or more, and some threads for the sampler.
Ink Circles: Cirque Des Cercles
Shakespeare's Peddler: Jenny Bean Sampler
Well, I could hold off and I put a few stitches in Jenny, and I'll have pics for your soon.
And I think I'll have a hard time deciding on the direction to go with Cirque. I have seen so many fantastic versions of this.
On the Hooky front, I tried out a new flower pattern for my hats. I think it turned out pretty cute. I also came up with another idea for embellishments that I think I will share with you soon.
As for the Sampler that I need to frog, well, I put that off for a while. I didn't want to but... well, another abandoned project for now. It's the story of my life.
Thanks for stopping by,
Hillery

I love the flower on that hat! Super cute. Even my husband glanced over while I was on your blog and said how cute it was, and if a guy likes it, you know it must be good :-)
This is really cute Hillery. It's so happy!
What a cute flower! It looks perfect on that hat.
Circles was such a problem for me since there were so many, many gorgeous versions out there! And when I finally went with red on yellow, folks kept coming out with more combinations! There's so many different versions of it and all gorgeous! Good luck picking one.
Isn't it lovely to receive something lovely in the mail for a change! The hat is a fabulous colour, and the flower just darling!
How pretty!
