And I am green w/envy at Needle in a Haystack- my not-so-LNS in Raleigh has closed down in the last year or two- I didn't get there often but when I did it was so fun! I don't know where the nearest LNS is now.. besides a tiny one about 20 min. from me that rarely has new things.. sorry to ramble! lolTraceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01902462980319045892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-67368675631731798672011-09-20T06:46:16.153-07:002011-09-20T06:46:16.153-07:00Thanks for the pic of your LNS would love to see a...Thanks for the pic of your LNS would love to see all the beautiful threads in person. When I was little my Grandma let me buy floss even if I had no idea what I was going to do with it,LOL! She drew the line at earrings I would stand there longing for a pair of pierced ones (my ears weren't pierced then) because my Great grandma had them. My favorite threads are varigated even to this day! My dream is to travel to different shops, Catholic churches and B&B's someday.

It's so hard when choosing colours of floss and fabric. <br />I also have that BBD. It's a favourite of mine but I have to save for the silks.<br />The mystery sampler looks really great. I love how you've tweaked it some.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16299867624939647862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-71952244268428863822011-09-19T17:55:44.373-07:002011-09-19T17:55:44.373-07:00I'm jealous....great LNS!
