I saw this on the V&A web site & was thrilled to find one at Barnes and Noble [earlier today]

I was stash diving, looking for some linen. I'm thinking I don't have a good enough cut for the Happy Hearts Sampler by BOAF. This was going to be a fun SAL with (so far) Chelle and Cathy B. Perhaps I'll find something in the next day or two ... or will have to purchase some!!!! I really thought the 32-count lambswool linen would be ok -- but, honestly, it dulls out the overdye fibers. I'll have to get some 32-ct sand or something to compliment the fibers : ) The pattern calls for 36-count linen; however, no can do!!! So, ladies, go ahead and start without me. I'm sure I'll catch up the first or second week in January : )
Wishing everybody who stops by my blog a Happy New Year!!!!

Oh, I would love to try and stitch BOAF "Happy Hearts," too. Do you have room for one more in the SAL, assuming I can find some stitching time in the New Year?
Cute calenders! I hope you have a very Happy New Year!
Really great calenders! I haven't been out shopping all week, but will have to make a Costco run this afternoon, hopefully before the rain comes. :)
What gorgeous calendars. Good luck with getting your fabric. I love the look of the higher counts as well, but like you 32 is pretty much my max for being workable.

Look forward to seeing your BOAF SAL progress. Hope 2008 is a year filled with peace, love and happiness :D
Love the calendars! Happy New Year!
I have my pattern and linen for Happy Hearts - I haven't pulled the threads yet though. I'm hoping to get it started on new Year's Day....
I love BOAF. Might have to put this one on my to do list. It's nice to have found your Blog too.
Most imposrtantly - HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Nice calendars! I'm sure you'll catch up on your SAL in no time.
