So I was the winner of Theresa's giveaway! Hooray for me! I had never won a giveaway. Just take a look at what she made me.
If you check out her blog at the link I jut gave you, you will see she just went to Paris!! The thread she used on this is actually grey variegated. Look what fabric she used for the flatfold. I absolutely love it! Pink. :) ♥
She also sent all of these goodies. These were all purchased on her trip. Can you believe it?! And yes these are a few of my many poodles. Did you think I could pass up poodles with Paris?.tee hee!
Lovely gifties form Theresa |
The small tin with the Eiffel Tower on it is filled with chocolate caramels. Not for long!! Isn't that a fabulous postcard? With the hand stitched Eiffel Tower. Love it. I cannot wait to use these wonderful threads and trims Theresa. Especially the beautiful purple silk ribbon in that little box.
I have to tell you that when I received this yesterday I was filled with emotion. It is amazing to me the kindness shown by fellow stitchers. My Madeleine said "But why would she make something so pretty and give it away?" So I explained to her the wonderfulness of all of you! Isn't it wonderful to belong to this community??!! I think so. I know so!! THANK YOU THERESA!
Thanks for visiting me today everyone. Welcome to all my new followers. I am glad for all of you! ♥
digging in the dirt, stitching and praying,
