A few wks. ago I actually won something for a change! Over at Barb's Heartstrokes blog, she had a giveaway and I won this cute little snowman that she handpainted!!
It was wrapped in this darling little package and inside was a darling little snowman staring back at me! She paints all sorts of things and is uber talented, so give her a visit.
Last time I posted that I would reveal what all I sent in my Mystery Give~away packages. I sent one package to England and she was interested in the sewing/quilting category, so this is what all I sent to Gill(no blog). Just some fat quarters, some lace, a needle threader, patterns, tissue holder and a 'sewing' wristlet bag.
Then on to another gal who won the cross stitch goodies..........Denise from Florida.
I sent her a more 'beachy' theme, since she lives in the Sunshine State!! A beach graph, beach kit, beach zip bag, needle threader, tapestry needles, linen, kleenex tissue holder...........
And they all fit nicely in her little bag I made.
I am finished w/another sewing project I completed last wk. It was a bit bigger project, but I completely forgot to take a pic of it, so will try to remember that next time!
Hope you all are enjoying what's left of your summer break! our local schools start back up in about 3 wks. from today and the county schools start in less than 2 wks!!! Wow, that seems so early! I remember when I was a kid, school didn't start until right after Labor Day in Sept. Wish it was still like that sometimes. I think it's still way too HOT when school starts up, but I don't have any kids in school anymore, just college, which is on a bit different schedule, thank goodness!!
