I love my blog friends.


I was recently talking to my blog friend, Tisha, from Loafer Mountain Primitives. She was telling me about all the fabric she had that was given to her by her mother-in-law.
And then she asked me IF I WANTED SOME OF IT.
Can you even stand it?
It was music to my fabric hoarding ears, people!!
Well, I couldn't, in good conscience, just take the fabric so I offered to make her something in return.
A swap, if you will.
Imagine my elation when her box arrived! It was so stuffed full of fabric! And huge pieces! Some of them....like this train print....are like 6 yards!!!
(pardon me for a moment while I sing, "I'm in Heaven" for just a sec!)
And if that wasn't enough, She tucked in ALL sorts of little goodies that just warmed my heart.
See the wall hanging in the above picture. Ya. All hand quilted.
There was also this framed stitching and this little basket.
Take a look at what I found inside....
hang on--I'm clutching my chest.....
Oh, the primness of it all. I loooooove it!
I wish you could smell the potpurrie that is inside this little bag. It is just plain old citrus deliciousness.
I have big plans for that rusty star, too. Just you wait....you will be seeing it in an upcoming post very soon!
Thank you, thank you, Tisha. Your extremely generous gift has not gone unappreciated! I hope you like what I am sending you but I submit that I got the better end of the deal!! ;)
