March SFS

There were so many things I wanted to post this week, but somehow life got in the way and there is still a little bit missing for each of them - what a shame, isn't it? So what I will do is to post my Stitch From Stash summary for the month now because the month is almost over and I have to, and try to get some of the other things done over the weekend.

So my finances for this month might be a tad complicated, but I'll try to keep this as simple as possible:

• I finished the two small kits I got last month in time for my grandma's birthday, so I don't have to add them to my stash.
• I have another little gift planned for April (TW's knotwork bookmark freebie, to be exact!) and for that I ordered some hand dyed floss for a total of 2.97£ ($4.94), but hopefully, I'll get it done quickly so  won't have to add these as well.
• I'm also going to make TW's 'Angel of Frost' as a christmas present because my grandma demanded that I make it for her - well she didn't actually demand, off course, but there was a lot of 'oh' and 'ah' and 'how pretty' going on when she saw her, and a good granddaughter knows what do to when she hears such noises from her grandma! Anyway, I spent about $41.73 on floss and 26.88£ ($44.72) on fabric, beads and my very first scroll frame. I probably won't get it done quick enough for the SFS gift rules to apply, but I didn't want to add it to my monthly total as well, so I decided to pay is with some of the money I got for my birthday last week.
• Lastly, I also ordered some floss for two more of the bookmarks (I have this cute little floss box with four compartments so I decided to get the floss for four bookmarks in total), which came to $5.90 that actually will be my monthly total for March.

I actually feel quite fullfilled now with all the projects I have going on, and the urge to start even more stuff is somewhat calmed. I hope I can get by like this for a while, probably interrupted by a few other small gifts I have in my mind to make, but I can't actually post here because they are all for people who know or at least know about my blog. Once those plans get more concrete, I shall just refer to them as mystery project 1, 2, 3 and so on ^_^
