I got email confirmations that the 2 packages I mailed on Tuesday
was delivered today.

One went west to my secret pc/nc partner, the other went southeast
to someone who had a birthday last month.


Sure hope you ladies like what I sent to you.

I received a delightful package today from SewExtremeSeams. A little blue mousie came my way along with a lovely floral themed needle book that even has pockets inside to keep other notions. She also included a large spool of thread in a lovely blue, tea, and candy. Thank you so very much, Linda.

Rosemary your quilts are awesome, love the hand quilting. I'll have to try 3/4" hexies. Love the little yoyos too. What size are the yoyos? The mouse is adorable. Joann wishing you well and praying for you. I haven't been feeling well the last couple of days. I was exhausted yesterday and have had slight chest pains all day. My FIL got out of the hospital, two days later back in the ER. He has so many medical problems. DD and I both have Dr. Appts tomorrow, glad we aren't getting snow until Sat.

Here are photos of the goodies I sent to Jan.

As she said I loaded a padded envelope just for her.

For the pincushion I used a extra small canning jar
as the base. Took jumbo yo-yo's to make the "top"
of the jar.

I tried to incorporate as much lavender/purple as I could.


The needle book is machine embroidered and says
"Jan's needle & thread book"

[ATTACH=CONFIG]507219[/ATTACH]


The pincushion contents are:

1)mini scissors (and I mean MINI, they won't cut fabric,
but they do cut thread).
2) purple retractable tape measure.
3) lavender 14" zipper

[ATTACH=CONFIG]507220[/ATTACH]

Inside front of needle book.
Pocket for needle threader, thimble or beeswax
loop for holding scissors, and place to stick pins
or needle.


[ATTACH=CONFIG]507221[/ATTACH]


Inside back cover.
Pockets for items like marking pencil, stiletto etc..

[ATTACH=CONFIG]507222[/ATTACH]


I used bamboo batting for the book pages.
4 pages to fill up!

[ATTACH=CONFIG]507223[/ATTACH]



Here is some of the items included in the needle book.
Needle threader, thimble, beeswax, red felt circles for
the sewing machine, and a homemade wood stiletto
wrapped with purple cohesive tape.

The purple scissors! also a couple book tags that
is quilting themed.

the package help put a smile on your face.

My heart goes out to you for your sister and family.
