How Much Stash is too much

GMTA !!

-- Carey in MA

From conversations with Maureen it would appear that excessive stash is an oxymoron (a bit like military intelligence)

roflmao- and i can see now that questions about stash are not to be thought about as if there were any other answer than--------nver too much! ktj

Unless, of course, it causes a problem with another adult with whom you share a residence!!

Sorry, but there is not such thing as TOO MUCH STASH. Not in any conceivable way. It is simple an error in concept. It's like being too happy or too content. There is no such thing. I mean really; you wouldn't put a limit on your happiness now would you?!?

Claudia

Of course they do!

Now - how many people were thinking the same thing???

LOL

Me, except that a Tollhouse cookie would be better !!

Lucille

All this talk about charts and stash haveme thinking that I absolutely, positively have to have a new, fantastic chart to drool over. It doesn't have to be something I need, it just has to be something I want.

Where should I start to look for this important indulgence???

Lucille

Why do I think you are going to get many suggestions and spend a fortune lol

Hmmm - good question. I'm thinking of what I've seen lately. Did you finish the Drawn Thread Toccata? You could look at some of her other pieces. Depending on what you want.

Take a look at some Martina Weber's latest - the Mermaid Box - it's STUNNING (we got 2, sold them, and now I'm re-ordering for me). There are always the huge, lovely Mandela garden charts. Link is to the box, but I always like browsing Martina's site.

Queenstown Sampler has a new repro, Hestera Harmer (Barbara brought it to the shop and Donna & I drooled a bit - though it's not my thing).

Sampler Cove - The Rhapsody in Red series is really nice. As is the "Siam Fusion (gorgeous blues/teals)

Here's where I go to drool:

So many gorgeous things and so little time.

The Mermaid Box is awesome and definitely going on the list.

Lucille

Thanks much. There are certainly some lovely things to choose from and the Mermaid Box is already whispering to me. I need to study a little more before I decide, but there certainly are some stunning things out there.

You just had to ask about Toccata didn't you? lol

It's all kitted up and sitting at the top of the pile but I have yet to put needle to fabric. I've suddenly been struck with guilt about the gifts I owed. I've got one almost done, another just started and one that is already up on the wall at my sister-in-law's house.

It definitely will be next.

Lucille

A good place to drool it is; I want Flower Patch.

Here's another - I've actually asked Ellice to order this for me

Completing my thought

Any kind of cookie works

Cheryl

Ooh, that's nice. I like the Calla Lily:

On another note, today at HL I noticed they are carrying some more Jack Dempsey stuff (or at least it's a first for my HL) - They had the boy and girl sampler:

LOL - another of the us thinking alike. I so love Martina's Mermaid box. It was one of those rare moments in the shop when I really say "I'm going to grab that" and too late - gone - and I'm sad. It is a gorgeous piece - I had even studied through the whole chart/instructions. So, undoubtedly I'll just order it soon...

Ellice

Umm, well, since you got that just about when I got the other Toccata - which is still a virginal kit. And my Love & Wisdom piece is still sitting at the 35% done point. But, that is coming up into rotation.

I understand. I've been spending much time stitching teaching pieces - which I like, but wouldn't be my first choice necessarily. And those really have to be done.
