New Stash!

Well I had a happy Mother's Day Yesterday. I went to Wal-Mart and they had a Bunch of Red Heart Bijou for $1.00 a skein and I bought all they Had! :O 38 Skeins and I also got 2 skeins of Red Heart Kiss.
AND THEN...
I went to Dollar Tree and they had 6 Skeins of Patons Glittallic, 3 skeins of Patons Lacette, 32 Skeins Patons Silverlash.
So I purchased a total of 81 Skeins of yarn ! Happy Mother's Day to me!!! but that's a -162 Stash-busting points. And I still need to add up the other skeins I purchased at an auction and second hand shops.

Discovered

I discovered 3 more totes of yarn this evening!
One of the totes had a bunch of Miscellaneous Yarn that I know I will never use so I donated it to the 2nd Chance Shop (Humane Society here in Kingman runs a shop and takes donations, whatever they sell is donated to Help the animals!) I earned 53 Stash-busting points!

I now have a total of 44 totes of yarn I need to get some new pictures taken, I re-re-organized them in numerical order. Here is a link to the original post on my stash.

Tote 32 is now empty
Tote 44 contains Orange Yarn
Tote 45 Contains additional Pink Yarn

D. A. V. Thrift Store Find

I went to the D.A.V. Thrift store today when I went to town and I got 44 crochet & Plastic Canvas Leaflets - I'll get some pictures posted as soon as I get around to sorting them! I was just so excited I had to post!

FO: Flannelghan

I finished the flannelghan I've been wanting to make since I finished the Sherbert flannelghan last year.
I used RH Super Saver Yarn in Claret (r) and Light Sage (g) I ended up using 4 and a partial of each color. I love the way it turned out. The edging is sc one row of gg, gr, rr




Leave comments on how you think it looks, I'd love to hear them.

OT: Movies

I just thought it would be fun to post the movies I watch and what I thought of them.

Death Sentence - Really a good movie if you like the shoot em up kill em dead type o movies (I do sometimes) Has Kevin Bacon in it, which was a pretty good role for him.

Sunshine - An interesting movie to say the least - You have to watch it to know what I'm talking about. Has Cillian Murphy from "Red Eye" and Chris Evans from "Fantastic Four"

On another note I am attempting to stash bust for the Stash-Busting CAL at the Ville. SO far I am at +4 which is pretty good for me. I have not bought any yarn at all this year, doing good 2 weeks in.

I'm trying to make some extra money from home, to pay for my Crochet Spending Habit! If you are interested in earning money by completing easy tasks and taking surveys click on the link below it contains my Referral code.
