Well, I went to the PO today. I'd been watching my box like a hawk, waiting for my SQA package. I got there, and there were TWO of them waiting for me!!
Some beautiful civil war fat quarters and a civil war pattern to go with them(that I can't wait to use, I'd been looking for the perfect pattern and I think I found it) and a book with patterns for bags and table runners. Also some dots to put on rulers, and a key ring with a mini thimble on it. I loved the bird card, very pretty! Thank you so much SQA!!!! I love my gifts :) :) |

LOL Patti.
You are associated with frogs and I am associated with lizards. lol |
I received a wonderful book today from my Angel. It's called The Open Canvas and is an encyclopedia of openwork techniques. (pulled canvas, needleweaving, etc.) It's really fabulous and I'm itching to put it to use. I guess my Angel knows I like all kinds of needlework! Thank you so very much, whoever you are. You are soooooo generous and thoughtful.
A little sneaky too I might add. My angel had another board member act as "surrogate" angel and she sent the book to me. Unless, you are my angel and you're just trying to throw me off the track! Hmmmmm......... |
Oh, that's a good idea! Hummmmmmmmmmmmm!
|
Isn't it? I have a feeling a lot of us might be doing this!

Another great surprise from my SQA! I've never seen candles on a rope before. Wish you could smell them, they're divine! And look at the gourmet chocolates, they're too pretty to eat! I may just shellac them and keep them forever. Yeah, right! Both of the pretty fabrics still have the selvages, which I collect! And the redwork pattern is something I've been wanting to try forever.
Thanks for all the goodies Angel O' Mine! |
I got a really cute "thinking of you" etched mirror saying on a little frame. It's sitting on my kitchen window sill. :) Thank you!!!
BTW, she asked what my boys names were and to post them, so...my oldest is James (he'll be 8 in April) and my lil' one is Andrew who is 5. |
I had such a fun week. I hosted Gwen Marston from Beaver Island this week. She taught at our guild tuesday and Wed. If you ever get a chance to take a class from her DO. She is a great teacher. and a really good friend. We did liberated baskets and folk art applique. Such a good time. Retreating this weekend. See, I said such a fun week. Glad to see everyone is having fun with their angels.
|
somehow i lost this page and had to catch up from page 36
lots of fun things it was fun catching up |
well my SQA is going to have a surprise very soon, I will be going to the post office on Monday to send a new pkg. I can't wait until she opens it.
I put a mouse in side andd am hoping it does not eat the chocolate. |
I can't believe this! My Angel sent another fabulous gift today. I've got to get a camera so I can show everyone. (maybe this weekend I can get my daughter to take pics with hers) There's a sweet red felt tote with a pink cherub appliqued on front and inside are the most gorgeous (9) batik FQ's. All in my favorite colors of greens and purples. Luscious! But wait - there's a cute heart shaped yo-yo maker (never saw that before) and an adorable "friends 4 ever" magnet AND a beautiful Valentine's card. I'm speechless and don't know what to say. Somehow, thank you doesn't seem to be enough. Who ever you are - you are one heck of a generous Angel. Merci, Gracias, Danke, Grazie.........well, you get the idea! Bless your heart!
|
I need to hurry and get a pkg ready for my person!! hhhmmmm what to get!! oh yeah it is VALENTINES!!! hope to get it out on time!
|
I didn't know you could make different shaped yo-yo's, well i guess I wouodn't since I have never made any!!
|
Yes, they have hearts, stars, flowers, circles, all in different sizes! They are pretty easy to figure out too.
|
I have yoyo makers and tha makes it real fast and easy, 3 sizes of circles 2 sizes of hearts and 2 for flowers. they are funto make in the evening watching tv or in the DR. office, while you wait to be served. Clotilde has them in her catolog.
|
You can also pick them up at Joanne's
|
I will have to look for them I have never made them before and always thought they were so cute.
|

I am putting together a box for my Angelee for Valentines day. I hope she likes it.
|
