Great packages coming in. Still waiting on mine, hopefully soon!

I received a lovely package from Aussie Croydon on Monday, and then, surprise of surprise, a package today consisting of the EZ Easy Angle and Companion Angle rulers!!! These are used a lot by Bonnie Hunter, and I always have to "manage" without them. I'm dancing the happy dance.

In her package to me were 6 FQs of floral fabrics, two packages of needles manufactured in OZ, an adorable magnetic koala bear, a boomerang keychain, postcards and a lovely note. I think I'm going to frame the front of the note with the bluebirds on it. It's just adorable. Thank you so very much, Jackie!

Oh No, Grandma Peg, and I thought I had it all figured out! LOL Fergus I am so happy you are up and out and about! Hang in there Fella!!! Oh well it will be worth the wait!

Verna, what is it with people that refuse to acknowledge a gift? It happened to me in Feb! Not nice at all!!!

OH, OH, OH! I got my package!! Thank you SO MUCH, Bullock2us! I love every single item! My surprises included Riley Blake "Sugar and Spice" fabric (woo hoo!). It even has the name on the selvage, which you know is a bonus, since I collect those little treasures....and so you gave me a whole bag full! You are so sweet! Cutest fabric names - Red Letter Day, Honey Bee Mine, Lazy Day, etc.

My other fabrics are a gorgeous green, a blue & green and a deep purple. Just lovely! The pin cushion is darling, and I love how you sewed the selvage on the back. "Pin Scatter" is the fabric name! L.O.V.E. I got patchwork pins to go with it - you even searched to find the best kind. You knew I was doing an I Spy quilt, so charms were included - and my son (7yo) almost fell off his chair when he saw those ninjas! Daisy princesses, dragonflies, potatoes (Idaho, I'm sure!)...wonderful charms. A sweet Easter tissue holder, extra special candy from Idaho, and a book: Memory Quilts in the Making! You didn't know this, but I have been trying to decide what to do with my late mother's handkerchiefs. There are two patterns in there that use vintage hankies!

I feel so very blessed! Thank you for making my day!

Glad you liked it PeginCO. My mom is always teasing me about keeping the selvadges and I tell her that I am not alone in this. There are so many things to do with them. Will have to make her something with them. Show us that hankie quilt when you are done. I have never seen one of those (other than the pix in the book).
I am still waiting on my package too so the rest of you are not alone. I guess patience is a virtue but not one I have much of.

Bullock2us, this is my favorite handkerchief of my mom's. Isn't it beautiful? I will definitely be doing this single hanky wall hanging. And look at that Riley Blake fabric for an outer border/backing. Didn't know it would match until I pulled the handkerchief out of it's hiding place!
