Connie had a wonderful giveaway, and I won!
But I was blown away when this large box appeared:
a wooden cigar box, beads, sequins, holographic green thread, a painted tin, a little frame
Plus this wonderful book: 'An Encyclopedia of Crazy Quilt Stitches and Motifs' by Linda Causee. It's a wonderful resource for CQing stitchery.
What a wonderful giveaway! Thank you so much, Connie!
I've already used the book on several projects, and thinking of those lush fabrics and where I'll use them. I have a mug rug swap coming up. Hmmmm
And a few garden shots:
Hope your mail has lovely surprises in it!
Thanks for visiting.
Hugs from Suz

That's a great package! Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! I do feel very lucky!
ReplyDeleteDorthe, I'm sorry I cannot tell you the name of the rose:- my DH picked it out in error, and the tag has gone missing. I'm disappointed because I'd like to buy some more, but haven't seen another like it since.
Lucky lucky you!!! Beautiful garden pictures!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comment. I'm looking forward to lots of playing with the new fabrics, and all the goodies.
ReplyDeleteThe garden is great this year because of the rain we had all spring.

your header image, turtle island?? It's amazing, it really does look like a turtle...yes I know, I get excited easily!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're right Karen, it does look like a turtle. And, believe it or not, the turtles climb up onto the island and lay their eggs in the sand between the rocks! Neat, huh?
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a good day. I'm having company for the week, so haven't been online much.
