Well I sure do like having a birthday!! LOL! I've got three more gifts to share with you. First off, dear
Amy gave me a $20 gift certificate to her shop
Down Sunshine Lane for my birthday! Hip Hip Hurray! I met Amy through one of BeckySC boards and what a dear, sweet friend she has become. Plus she gives super service at her shop :) I'm a regular customer! Thank you sweet Amy for your gracious, generous gift...you KNOW I loved it! Thanks!
Next Up: my dear, sweet friend
Marie sent me this super package!

There's a primitive electric candle with a hometown theme (love it!), her summer home is Vermont and she sent me some maple sugar candy (boy did I love it and it was just like what Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote it would be like in her book Little House in the Big Woods! YUM-O!), she also sent along scrummy silk threads in red/white and blue, some mints and a hank of 40 ct. fabric. Marie, you really spoiled me! AND I see that all our e-mailing back and forth you didn't forget that I decorate in the primitive country style! That electric candle is SUPER! Thank you...I love everything! But check out this sweet friendship piece that Marie did and mounted on a clear paint can....AWWWWW....how sweet! Friends in sunshine and in rain! Thank you so much Marie. You touched my heart with your friendship and we've definitely struck a cord with each other. Big hugs to you!!!

Lastly another sweet friend,
Julie whom I met by her sending me an e-mail about blogging and how to set it up....boy am I glad that she asked me, because in Julie I have found another dear friend. Well dear Julie sent me these lovely items...Two Sunflower Seed charts, a LHN off of my wish list, some cute, cute freebies, some fabric fat quarters and a sweet birthday card as well. Julie, your friendship means a lot to me as well. Thank you so much!

Ok, well I can't show you anything I'm working on yet because well....it's for exchanges :) Plus I'm deligently working on my Neighborhood RR.....Margaret C....it's coming along....but I think I bit off more than I could chew on the pattern I picked. It is going S-L-O-W!!!! But I think it will be pretty once complete...if I ever get there. I finished stitching my Lil'Critters exchange...finishing it is almost done as well :) So soon there will be a post with my stitching!
Big hugs to my readers, my friends and anyone else out there that needs a friend :)
Until Next time....
Lots of continued birthday goodies! Thanks for prayers for April, she needs them, she is very frail and weighs under 100 pounds. MS is taking a terrible toll on her. How can I sign up for the SBBC. I want to make sure that I get a birthday/christmas partner for 2008. Will they take openings again?

Oh my goodness! Those girls stitched are darling :)
ReplyDeleteGlad that your box arrived~ :-)
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful birthday gifts, I know that you are enjoying all of them.
I too am doing the finishing on my Critter Exchange...Everything that I am stitching is for an exchange so I have little to post on my blog!
What wonderful surprises to get, you really did get spoilt on your birthday. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to when you can post your various exchanges, the little critters exchange in particular sounds like lots of fun.
