Pat, Oh my goodness what a great swap package you made for Aurora. It's all beautiful. I think I have one of your gorgeous baskets. I keep wanting to get better crocheting with the other thread to make a doily like that. It is beautiful. My mom could make all those type of doilies. Years ago, she made this one with grapes all around the edges. I have a set she made for me one birthday that has the pansies around it. I will have to take a picture sometime and put it on here. The pincushion and needle case you made for Aurora is so so pretty and match the gorgeous basket. You are very talented. I am no where near as talented as all of you ladies on here, but you all inspire me, and help me in my journey of sewing/quilting. Pat what is the little pretty case on the pink doily next to the pretty buttons? Everytime you show something on your table, I see all the pretty things you have sitting back on the table and a bit of some pretty plants too. I wish I was there to see all your pretty goodies you have sitting out.
Mary, how is your husband?
I have used the stiletto I got from Jaba so much I don't know how I managed without one. I always thought they were pretty, but they are much more than that. It sits by my machine.
I had a wonderful, but very simple birthday yesterday. My husband was ready to take me wherever I wanted to go, but I was too weak to feel like going anywhere. We had cake and icecream, with a quiet day and our fur babies. My son invited us over for dinner tonight. That will be nice since only my husband cooks. He is a good cook though, but he is very anemic right now, and he seen a specialist and they said he has only half of his lung capacity he should have. Keep us in your prayers. All of you are always in mine.
Have a great day and week ahead everyone.
