Last Friday on my way home from work I stopped at JoAnn's to pick up a couple DMC threads for my Harvest Angel. I was running low and feared there wouldn't be enough of the 2 main colors. The 3777 was easily found, hooray! The 977 (or 779 or whatever) was not -- GASP! There wasn't even a slot for that color! I double checked, figured I was remembering the wrong number, walked back out to the car (because I left the slip with the numbers on it out there and since it was such a nice day, parked a good distance away from the store's entry), grabbed said paper and returned to the store. Unfortunately, I had remembered the number correctly and there was no such number there. I purchased the 3777 and in a state of mild panic, rushed home, called my LNS owner (which is not on my way home but rather a 40 min. drive away) and was told not to panic. She carries that particular thread and has lots in stock -- horray! A happy ending!
Even though I was very busy over the weekend doing doggie stuff and mowing grass, I did manage to squeeze a little stitching into my schedule:
Good news -- Stormy is feeling much better. He's not 100% and is still on R&R but he's getting there.
glad your story has a happy ending! So, is the LNS going to mail the floss to you or do you have to go pick it up!?!?!
ReplyDeleteGlad Stormy is doing better!!!!
The stitching looks great!
Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'll probably go pick it up sometime this week. I love going there just to look around at all the pretty stuff she has in stock. I always find something I missed the last time I was there.
