One good thing about going to work this Monday was that I received lots of goodies in the post.  I've been wanting to try crewel wool embroidery and I found a great sale at The Stitch Store  so I was able to load up on some lovely Appleton's crewel wool at half price!  Plus I ordered some fabrics and a few DMC threads I needed... and a few other bits and pieces!  I also received a bunch of flexi hoop frames that I got a snapped up cheap on eBay.  Oh and a book about teaching your dog tricks which I ordered off Amazon.  I'm thinking that Billie is a hopeless case when it comes to tricks, but I'm determined to prove myself wrong.  Can't wait to get started on all this stuff.  Do you think they'd miss me at work if I didn't show up for a few weeks?
