You can never have too much stash

I was able to go on a little shopping spree last month, as if I needed more! I really need to figure out a way to organize this stuff.

First is Growth Rings from Just Cross Stitch magazine. Brown and turquoise threads to match my living room on white 32ct lugana. I started this last week but between the kids and my own attention span I haven't been able to concentrate on it much.

Goodies from 123stitch.com. My favorite stitchy site. These were in my mailbox only two days after ordering!
Hand-dyed fabrics from Enchantedfabrics.com. Full of lovely sparkles!! 28ct Opalescent Lugana in Prairie Skies and Bubblegum.
Charleston Lady from TheStitchery.com. I've been wanting this one for a long time. I'm thinking about switching out the aida for the Bubblegum Lugana.
Even with all this lovely new stash I've been knitting more than stitching lately. I was tired of the boring plastic stitch markers so last night I made some new ones.

Then I made a charm for the dog.
Time to get back to stitching...now where do I start?!?
