July Stitch From Stash 

Hi everybody!  Hope you are having a great weekend :)

It is just about the end of July so that
means it is time for the Stitch from Stash report!


This challenge is being hosted by Mel from Epic Stitching

I almost can not believe it myself but I still haven't SPENT any MONEY on STASH! - WOW  If you would have asked me before this challenge if I could go for 7 months without spending a penny I would have laughed and thought you were insane!  I never realized that my stash hoarding collecting was so extensive that I wouldn't have to buy anything for such a long period of time...not a skein of floss, needle or charts! An I have barely put a dent in my to-do pile which is still growing but with freebies now! I did order the two free charts from Stoney Creek for the month because I really wanted the Halloween one - two charts for one low shipping price of $3.50 is a great deal!



So here is my report for:   July

Amount Spent:   $0

Year to date Amount Spent:   $0

Total Saved Based on this challenge:   $175 (all that is now Christmas money!)

New Starts from Stash:   No new starts for July

WIPs worked on:  I worked on three piece from the WIP pile, they are the main pieces in my rotation for now...

You should be incredibly proud of yourself. I had to use a skip month for July. Hubby was sick and we didn't know what was wrong. Thank God it was his gallbladder which is now out but when I stress I shop and I shop for stash lol!
