Mail Call!

It was a good mail week! First, Jenny graciously sent me her kit leftovers for Sweetheart Tree's Sunflowers and Bumblebees Welcome.

 

I love the card! She even drew me a cute Mickey Mouse inside!! Thanks, Jenny!

Then, I may have had a really bad day at work last week and decided I needed to join Nordic Needle's Hardanger Ornament of the Month Club.

 

You get all the fabric, fiber and beads for the whole year in a zippered pouch, complete with needles and a threader, and then you get a pattern sent to you each month. There's a charge for the initial pack, then one per month (not 100% clear in their explanation...and it looks like the initial price now includes the July and August pieces). They are layered ornaments, or you can keep them separate for two a month. I love the first one...the second one I think the layering doesn't really add to the design, so I'll keep them separate. You know, when I eventually stitch them....

I also got this book (thanks to the wonderful hubby):

It reminds me of our trip to Europe two years ago when we visited Istanbul (not Constantinople). Yes, I know I never blogged about that...maybe someday (once I get thru Alaska!) I'll do some "retro rovings" posts.

I just can't keep the new stash out of this place....
