A chance to increase your stash and NOT feel guilty

Hi Stitchers!

A la belle étoile by Tralala


You might like to try some French threads and designs (try Tralala). In this shop, the proceeds from sales until 19th Jan (French time so you need to hurry) are given to the Red Cross (la Croix Rouge) to help Haïti after this awful earthquake.
Shipment worldwide is 1.50 euros, quite cheap.
So if you want to indulge and do something good at the same time (meaning not feeling guilty for once because you increase your stash), just pay a visit there.
http://www.lefilatalie.com/
If you need help with the order, let me know, I will try to help.
Basically, when you have chosen a design (créateurs), a list of colors is listed -which you can buy if you want to. You can find the colors by alphabetical order under "les couleurs".
If you want a design, you need to click on "je commande" (I order). You need to do that on each page where you pick an item. The order form displays and you can go on purchasing clicking on "ajouter un article" (add an item). If you correct a quantity, you can have the order recalculated by clicking on "recalculer la commande".
You can pay by credit card, payment is secure.
I don't work for that shop, but I found this initiative for Haiti quite fabulous actually.
The pic above shows the design I have chosen (plus the threads for it). A big treat... :D


Hugs to you all, Stitchers!

Lili

Great way to raise money Lili. You are so kind to always think of others.

The painters were here for five days last week to repaint the entire house inside. Looks fab. Today we are once again cleaning with more to come tomorrow and probably Thursday. What about Wednesday you say? I plan to make my first visit to SP then.

Tomorrow the container arrives in LA. Then it is a question of how long it takes for things to get through customs and then the container will be trucked here.

Really do owe you a long email but at least this brings you UTD my dear.

hugs, Margaret

Hola de nuevo, Lili. Te contesto a lo que me preguntaste en mi blog acerca del abecedario que hice en azules: es un esquema de C Mon Monde, un diseño francés, llamado "Les lettres de mon jardin", Viene para hacerlo en tonos azules y en tonos rosas. Si tú lo necesitas mándame un correo.
¡Qué bien que nos guste el mismo quilt de ikea!, jajaja

What a great way to help raise funds, and a very cute design. Hope you're all doing well with the winter we've been having. We are due for another snow storm tonight, 2-8 inches expected depending on how the pattern moves through. I am so tired of winter, can't wait for spring/summer to get here. Oh well, at least there are signs it is on the way, it is getting light earlier and staying light later and that helps a lot.
