Happiness is...

Happiness is whatever makes you happy! I know you guys make me happy ALL THE TIME!!!!!  From your support here, facebook,and twitter to other things like...

I had two surprise packages this weekend and they both made me SQUEAL with JOY!!!!!

The first is from Lindsey at LRstitched!!!!!! WOW!!!!! I was part of a New York Beauty pillow swap and I cannot believe my beautiful pillow!!!!!! Everything about it is PERFECT!!!!! There was also a sweet little Heather Ross surprise in the package. I am one LUCKY girl!!!!!!

THANK YOU LINDSEY!!!!!

GORGEOUS quilting!!!!!


The perfect pillow will live here for the time being so I can see it from my sewing machine and be happy and inspired and hopefully Adam will not wear it as a hat!



The second package is from Sally,who I had my first ever fabric swap in January, she lives in Australia and is over the top sweet! I had NO idea she was sending me anything at all!!!!! Many heartfelt thanks to you Sally, you are so thoughtful and kind :o)

There was something for everyone, as you can see Adam was VERY quick to notice the package for himself!



Adam's was opened speedy quick and it was a dinosaur egg!!!!!  He was so excited!!!!! This was the best photo I could get, he is moving very fast these days!!!!!

There were these goodies for ME!!!!!  The top two are delicious smelling soap and lotion from a shop in Austrlia that I cannot get here. Sally sent me a bar of soap from this shop in Jan and it sits in my sewing room...SMELLS DEVINE!!!!!! They must start shipping internationally or I may have to move down under ;o)

The fabrics are these beautiful fabrics by Saffron Craig and Layla Campbell for M&S Textiles . Katy says the Purple dots would be a perfect wallet and I have to agree!!!!!

 In Katy's package were some lovely smelling sachets 

and these adorable hair pins ( perfect for summer) by fibberitigibbet!


 I am very grateful for all of my happiness and thank you all so much!!!!!!

Happy New Year and a small psa

Happy New Year!!! I wish I could say this was me today...



But I cannot, I have been spending my New Year, so far, organizing and doing a LOT of sewing for some future projects I am so excited about and cannot wait to share but I have to darn it !!!!

My New Year's Eve was an event much like my Christmas Eve, I got mail!!!!!! I joined my first swap ever organized by Victoria at  Bumble Beans. THANK YOU Victoria :o) She paired  me with the SWEETEST gal in Australia, Sally at So Sew Sally,  and I am overwhelmed by what she sent me :o)


GAH!!!!!!

 She included Australian designers  Saffron Craig and Prints Charming along with some Aboriginal fabrics. All very lovely and I love them all!!!!




How cute is this little guy?


The best smelling soap ever! Katy is trying to sneak this one to her room :o)

A signed copy of this AWESOME pattern...YES!!!!!

And I am not sure who told her that my FAVORITE all time color is this one. Really beautiful

Sally, Thank you so very much for making my new year start off so well!!!!

Now for the psa!

For the record, Kona white and Kona snow are two VERY different colors in good lighting, *HEADSMACK*
