Want to thank Marybeth (Marytoddliz) for my wonderful package that I received today. Since my favorite candy is peanut m&m's she sent me those and also some m&m fabric - just love it. She also sent some seeds, bobbin container, cute apron pattern, a book by Jennifer Chiaverni who lives in WI-that's pretty cool, some tea, several pieces of lovely fabric, jam and a very nice note.
This swap is just so much fun and so enjoyable. Thanks Lori, for all you do to keep this going!!
Thanks again Marybeth for the great package.

I received the most generous box from Quiltnut4ever, it was full to the brim with such nice gifts! Incredible fabric she 'heard' that I love floral fabric and I love mauves to pinks or pinks to mauves....

I'm making a pumpkin wall hanging and she included some FQ's that are just perfect for that wall hanging!!!! A Moda coordinated selection of fabric from the Wuthering Heights collection!

Then I think it will post as the second picture...a tote bag, a selection of thread, glass headed pins, a Kleenex holder in what else???? Floral fabric! Sample of 'green' laundry soap and fabric softener. Hearing of my quest to make 5600 Yo Yo's for a quilt I'm making she sent me 3 more Clover Yo Yo makers!!!!

A book by Mary Tatem " The Quilt of Life" A Quilters Patchwork of Devotional Thoughts. Life is a patchwork quilt of God's perfect design. I love that, thank-you so much Lillian!

The 3rd picture is last but not least some quilt patterns. A current quilting magazine "The Quilter magazine" on page 16 for all you flower lovers....thinking of Krystyna's Rose quilt....there is directions for a quilt titled Vineyard Roses and I just so happen to have the perfect collection of Rose fabric to make this!!!!
I've never looked at "The Quilter Magazine" but I'm really impressed. The patterns are not too complicated and that appeals to me. I think I will be looking for this magazine now.

All in all I am very much overjoyed with this package from Quiltnut4ever! Such a generous lady and more than anything I now have a new friend!

Finally packaged all the goodies I picked for my SP and boy did I have trouble fitting everything in the package. It looks like it is about to bursts so I put some reinforcing tape on it. Will definitely be in the mail Monday morning so should be received by midweek since she is only appx. 834 miles from me. Great packages being received!!! Love the package from Japan. I would love to have her as a swap partner to receive Japanese items. I am partial to oriental everything! I always dreamed of seeing Japan and China. Maybe one day.

Oh with the lockables, do you have a child nearby? LOL! I almost had to call Shane and Owen to inform me that all you have to push the purple thing in and they will open! Took me forever to figure that dang thing out! LOL!

Today one of our local quilt shops was having this sale going on outside. People came and sold the things they no longer wanted. This lady sold this wall hanging to me for $10.00.
