I just splurged on magazines online. Not to worry, no piggybanks were hurt. I did not get any stitch-related presents last Christmas (boohoohoo) but did receive gift certificates/check (yep, so original!), so why not spend a little on cross stitch mags. And now look what the post brought in!
DH was so delighted when he saw my purchase, hah!
Sorry I had to put them on the floor to get a photo:

I loved Jeremiah Junction's colorful country designs from way back. Below are just two of the projects I made from the previous decade (I don't have pics of the country shoppes I've done):
I found out that it stopped print in 2014 (sigh). I'm still craving for another one (a Country Shoppe or Alphabet issue or the last print as commemorative issue).

Thanks for visiting. Happy Stitching!
