Lucky Day
Hurray for fun packages in the mail!
I could hardly believe when last week I when I dropped by one of my favorite blogs, nanaCompany, and saw my name.
In the sweetest graphic, it read “Congratulations Calli”.
How fun is it to win a giveaway! And to get packages in the mail.
It’s even better when it’s a sweet handmade gift from Amy.
Her little envelope/house is perfect hanging in my kitchen.
I also won a fat quarter bundle from the Fat Quarter Shop, Rosebud Petal by Tanya Whelan from Free Spirit.
The line is so pretty and low volume. I can’t wait to use it.
There was also a fun bundle of Marble Cosmo Thread by Lecien, which I know will make it’s way into many a project.
I’ve had quite a nanaCompany week, since I made a copy of her little hexie pincushion.
And I’ve slowly been working on her “Be Joyful” embroidery pattern. It’s been my companion at soccer games this spring. But as you can see it’s been an exciting season. I’ve hardly gotten anywhere at all. I even stabbed myself in the hand with my needle once, celebrating a great play. Ouch.
My girls and I are looking forward to our early mornings on the porch swing this summer, where my embroidery has a better (and safer) chance of getting finished.
Oooh, I can’t wait to see what you make with that gorgeous fabric! I know it will be beautiful!
That’s so exciting Calli. Congratulations. What fun treats in the mail you received! I love that Rosebud Petal line too. I almost bought a bunch of fat quarters of it the other day but decided to be good. I did end up with some of the taupe polka dot for a background for a baby quilt though. It’s such a pretty line.
Have a great day.

I absolutely adore the little pincushion with the sweet lace trim and that embroidery pattern – oh my goodness. I’m heading straight to nanaCompany to have a looksie. Thanks for sharing!
