I was not expecting anything but bills in the mail today.
When I walked out to the mailbox, there's a package in there.
Hmmm....who's sending me a package? I know I wasn't getting a square for the Round Robin, but there's a package, none the less.
I have gotten in the habit of NOT looking at the mail on the way to the house, so when I got IN the house, I'm checking this out.
A HUGE smile comes over me. I run upstairs so I can put the bills on the desk and open my package. I look at the return address, it's from Cathy M. :) :) :)

This is what I got.......
Isn't it cute????

Can you see my helper UNDER the fabric? This isn't a really good picture, but had to show you my helper in there.

This one is better. Look REALLY close and you can still see my helper in there. He fell back to sleep. :)

What a lovely surprise Terri! Good thing your Big Boy was there to help you :D

Oh yes, he's a great helper!
He holds down fabric so it doesn't float away!
His best thing to do is to hold down that loveseat. You know, it WILL fly away if he gets off it! lol

She include a note that says I should have fun sewing with my mittens on. lol
She's such a goof!

Now that is soooo cute! Wouldn't that look so cute with window panes in front of it? Hey Terri, if you lived here, you would have had your mittens on 3 weeks ago for our snow in May that we had. Awe, now that's a cute surprise for sure :)

Yes, it is too cute! I'm not sure if I'm just going to border it or what.
I think for now, I'm just going to tack it to the wall, so when I get REALLY hot, I can look at it and cool off. :)

Look down in the bottom right hand corner. You will see a color that doesn't go with anything. lol

Hey Terri- I told the lady at the quilt shop that you had a 'fetish' for snowmen and needed that fabric. Also told her where you live and that there was a group of you that met on Tuesdays twice a month to try and get over your urge to fondle snowmen. Not sure she knew I was kidding :):) So if there happens to be a warrant issued for your arrest... well, I'll do my best to explain hahahhahaa..

LMAO!!

You weren't licking any of the fabric there were you? hehehe
I showed it to Bill and he thinks it's just too cute.
Courtney wants me to hurry and get it done so it can hang in HER room. NOPE!! Don't think so Chicky! (Chicky is also a nickname her sister gave her lol)

OH, another quick story..( I know, I have lots of them!)
My son in law teaches Salsa Dancing at the Marine Corp Base.
My oldest AND youngest would go so they could learn too. Donny (SIL) would always pick Courtney to show different steps/techniques. Well, one night he is teaching and he looks at Courtney and says....Chick, come over here for a minute. The girl standing next to Courtney got a bit offended and says....That girl DOES have a name, don't call her Chick!
Courtney looks at the girl and says...My name IS Chick!
The girl never went back to the class. lol

Cathy M is a real sweetheart! That was so nice of her to send you some "snow" while you're stuck in the tropics!

Love your helper!
