Very pretty packages of late...Rachel, that fabric from Vietnam is gorgeous! Aren't you the lucky girl!!! :thumbup:

OWWW-LA! LA!! The fabric from Viet Nam is so pretty!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

OMG Sis! Your SQA is fabulous! That iris print is to die for. I would not want to cut any of the fabric. Just drool over it. :thumbup:

I got a package from my SQA yesterday! In it was a magazine, a card and an Angel but the bad thing is it came broke so I will try to fix it to today so I can post pics! Thank you to my Angeleee your the best!!! :)

i was cleaning off my camera this morning and i think i forgot to post the pix that i took of my SQA package that i received awhile ago--thank goodness I didn't forget to thank her right away!!

So quiet here... Must be the start of the " Dog days of summer :wink: " LOL Everyone is outside enjoying the weather :lol:

I'd be afraid to cut the fabric from Viet Nam- It is just lovely. What an amazing "something" it will make. :mrgreen:

Thank you, thank you SQA Suzie Q!! I received your lovely card. You always find the nicest cards.
I think I posted thank you for your last package, but I know I never did a picture to post, sorry about that. I have been thinking of a something to make at the end of the year with the FQ you have sent me. Haven't come up with a project yet.

another orchid...before and after.....very pretty...TY my angel...and friend.....a very pretty flower

Today I received a pkg from my SQA that contained two strands of lites to hang up. They are so cute -- the covers for the lites are little red quilt star blocks. I've not seen anything like these around here, so I'm really excited. They would be cute on a country xmas tree, but I'm going to hang them up in the sewing room, just like SQA suggested. I'll post a picture when I get them strung up after my trip up north.

(Note to SQA - you asked about my favorite colors....right now I'm going through a wild, bright stage -- influenced by a close friend who had a gift shop with a lot of tropical and Mexican mdse. I went on a shopping trip with her to Larado before the drug gangs took over and came home loaded down with ceramic pottery and carved animals and wild woven stuff and silver stuff and, etc. I immediately painted my walls at home in oranges, golds, terracotta, bright yellows, dark greens. I love tropical prints and big florals in blues, magentas, oranges, pinks. I always lean towards Kaffe Fassett type prints -- and I've gotten several of his quilt books that are getting soggy from all my drool. His stuff is eye candy of the highest order. And to go along with all the Mexican/tropical stuff, I still like the lizard/frog/turtle prints you sent. I used to like "country" but over the years have gone eclectic and have donated all the "Americana" type stuff to whoever would take it. Color and wild prints and nature all make me happy. So my walls are full of sun faces, talo vera plates, coconut painted faces, big tropical florals, lizards and frogs and herons, and anything else I can get a hook on. Sorry I rambled on so much -- it's almost 1 a.m.and I can't get to sleep. I'm doing the nite-sweat bit right now and the high temp and humidity are not helping.)

And finally, thank you so much for thinking of me and for your sweet card. I hope your family emergency is resolved and you are enjoying peace and good health.
