Yeah, so. Crazy week. And my poor neglected blog (and Facebook, Twitter, and LJ) have suffered for it. I'm keeping myself busy at night though. Now that I'm 'free' of the Citrus mittens/Crazy Socks I went back to some stitching, trying to hustle my way through the July and August BB stockings.
I'm on the last one for August and then I'm done with those months. I started to get them ready for sewing (as you can see). Alas, I haven't gotten any further than what you see here since I took this picture (about FOUR days ago) other than picking out some backing fabrics out of my stash.
Since I'm in a stitchy mood and want to spread the stitchy love, I have an AWESOME stitchy giveway for my stitchy friends:
A pristine copy of the 2003 Just Cross Stitch Xmas Ornament magazine.
For a time I was buying two of these every year - one for me and one for my friend. I guess I just didn't get it to her this year. I've been meaning to give it away ever since so now one of you get to enjoy it!
All you have to do is
EMAIL ME (comments to this entry don't count!) if you want to be entered into the giveaway. I will ship it anywhere in the world and will randomly pull the name next Sunday, September 26th. Let me know in your email if you are a follower of my blog/your blog name because I will enter your name in
TWICE if you are because followers are
SPECIAL and stuff like that. :)
Feel free to link the giveaway on your blog if you want! I'm sure your stitchy friends love free stuff too. :)

Nice stockings!! (Love the spooky bat bead too!) I'm going to have to check and see if I have that magazine. Can't remember what's in my stash. lol!
You are a MACHINE on knitting, stockings, lampwork -- and I thought I moved fast! I need to send you some more yarn, but do you do anything other than socks? I don't think what I have is sock yarn. Shoot me an email if you want.
Those stockings are so sweet! And I love the bat bead you did up too :)
Wow, that is quite the accomplishment - those wee little stockings are beautiful!
I missed the spooky bat bead post, he is a hoot.
I'm off to e-mail you about the JCS issue - I just did an inventory - I only go back to 2004...:)
Wow, wow, wow! That is an amazing number of stocking finishes, Melanie--they are all so cute and nicely stitched, too! Good luck with the finishing--I have yet to attempt one of those :)
Your stockings look gorgeous! I already have the magazine so no need to enter my name, but it is an awesome giveaway!
Awesome giveaway. I wish I had half your talent
Lovely stockings, beautifully stitched
I have this mag and there are some really lovely designs in it - good luck to all who enter the giveaway.
I love those stocks! So cute.
I love those stockings! I already have the magazine, it's a good one!
