They are clearly stalking me, so I've given in.

I love that store, too...

Somewhere around 14th or 15th. I refuse to go in nowadays for anything except Mulled Wine mix because the whole store is just too tempting! <br /><br />On the wheels front, I managed to give back a wheel that has lived with me for over 18 months. So that leaves me with one working wheel, one wheel in pieces that I have to finish restoring, one Indian Head Spinner that needs some TLC and a drive band. So far, that's 3 wheels and 2 full drawers of fibre waiting for me to rediscover the joy of crafting.<br /><br />Oh and I would l-o-v-e a CPW. <br /><br />Darth's nothing - honestly, you just keep your eye on spinning!Gabriellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16901621887128155088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254929565755439732.post-10785708329790558092011-04-07T11:44:43.973-07:002011-04-07T11:44:43.973-07:00Ooops!

Rather buy more fiber. But you can never have enough bobbins!<br />Love the hubby shot with the cookies. :o)Monikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12088557380015172558noreply@blogger.com
