Package Day...

Ready for another rant? Again with the tiny mailbox. I swear one of these days. Yesterday we had a relief driver so the guys stuffs two very thick priority packages of fabric in the tiny box and then leaves me a pink card for the boxes he couldn't fit in the mailbox. Hello...I was home! You could have rung the buzzer. I love my regular guy even more now. SO today I head out with my little card and go pick up this:
My Annie came! She's so perfect and little! I can see more of these girls coming to live at my house the the future! I also got a box of wool felt pieces to add to the colors needed for some of the sampler quilts I have coming up. The two poor Priority envelopes that were wedged into the mailbox contained my selection of fabrics I wanted from the Merrimack 1800's repro line, and these lovely guys below:

A few more homespuns for my Christmas sampler. Some red/green/ gold variations that I'll use for pieces and binding of the soon to be finished Christmas Sampler quilt. I doing the last of the few blocks on the bottom and should have the top together in about 2 weeks.

Now back to the string quilt and cutting some pieces for a valentine runner...another project thanks to Sharon!

Glad you got your Annie, did you smell her? I told my daughter they smell like a vanilla latte! Where did you get your homespuns by the way?

Cute Annie! I ordered one at Christmas and never showed her off. :-( She's packed away - that's actually very silly - I need to pull her out. She should be out year around. :-)

Yummy looking homespuns!
