I was  determined to make a dent in my ornaments so I worked on a couple of small projects during the retreat this weekend and finished the two shown above.

I did a bit of stashing too and I am now the proud owner of a pair of Gingher "Emma" scissors which I purchased at JoAnn's for just $9.97. They only had two pairs left and I was lucky enough to get one while Val got the other pair.

For charts I got all 3 leaflets of Santa's 12 Days of Christmas, Christmas Past and Santas & Snowman all by Prairie Schooler. I also got Sally Spencer Sampler by Birds of a Feather.

While at Michael's and JoAnn's I picked up some new ribbons for finishing a few pinkeeps. Overall I did really well and I'm quite happy with my stash enhancement.
