I chose that title simply because I seldom ever have two posts within such a short time span! LOL! I have pictures to share....it was a big mail week!

I received a surprise package in the mail from Lois at Elegant Stitch. Several months ago she had a little problem with her contractor who was finishing up her new shop. He took it upon himself to choose the color for the flooring. Lois was not happy with his choice...the color of baby poop. So she had a little contest to guess the DMC color that matched baby poop...well, being a new grandma, I zipped an email right off with DMC 435...and I won! And this tuckable case was the prize.
Next up....

Received this chart from European Cross Stitch as well. Picture really doesn't do it justice. Now I just need to decide colors.....

I no sooner had my Big Zipper put away and first stitch in my Tulips, and here came the next Big Zipper installment called The BIG Tree. I'm thinking one more week on Tulips, and then I'll rotate back to this one....

This is one week's worth of stitching on Tulip Study. It really isn't hard...it's all whole stitches, no backstitching at all...I have about 12 grid squares done out of 529...that's a whopping 2% complete!
My stitching goals for May are simple. Work on Tulip Study and catch up on Big Zipper.
