I’m having a GREAT time on vacation. Sorry I’ve not been posting, but we’ve been having to much fun.
We made it over to Alameda today for a visit to Needle in a Haystack. Of course, you know it’s not a vacation without a bit of stash enhancement.
Here are the goodies I picked up today:
I’ll close out with a few random vacation shots. I’ll try and post more pics when I get home. You can click all images to biggify.

Hyde Street – we hike up & down this hill whenever we go anywhere

Until next time …



















Sounds like you are having a great vacation! Thanks for sharing your photos and “yeah” new stash!! Merry Christmas to me, right??? Gotta have it!!
Mel, I just love your stash buys–you got all my favorite linens: Brown, brown, and brown, lol! Also, those scissors are DIVINE!! I think I’ve seen them before, but I feel like I haven’t seen that warm metal finish before. Do you know what it is called?
Finally, I love that sampler-printed thing in the background; is it a zippered pouch?
Everything else looks just peachy, too. Some beautiful (and fun) pics!
Looks like you are having a blast, Melissa! Enjoy!
Looks like a fun time! Love the stash!
