My purchases from Xu Crafts

I was so happy when I found the Xu Crafts shop in Taipei!  I loved so many of the kits they had, but I decided to try to be good (even though they were all very affordable) and only get a few things.



I bought this Harvest kit because I really loved the Taiwan themes in the design.  The Farmers are wearing the traditional Asian straw hat that you still find people wearing in Taiwan who perform landscaping work.  I really love the bamboo and all of the adorable fruit in this design.  I wish I could start it tomorrow, but I think I might start it for the Crazy January Challenge...



I also bought this iris pouch kit.  The flowers are beautiful and I am hoping it will be a quick stitch.  I would like to use this to store all of my scissors.  I misplaced my beautiful new scissors that I really liked using during the Stitch Maynia madness.



I bought these bookmark kits to make as Christmas gifts.  They look like they will stitch up quickly and I am excited about starting these before January :)



I also got these needles and scissors which were all very affordable.

Xu Crafts was in a shopping center that had a very large bookstore.  In the bookstore I found this British Cross Stitch Magazine!



I almost bought it just because it was there, but I wasn't sure if there was anything I wanted to stitch in it so I decided to leave it for some other stitcher in Taiwan to find...

I hope you enjoyed seeing the stitching goodies I found locally.  Happy Stitching!
