Check out the package I received from Crafty Darlene - it's fabulous! 3 upcycled quilt mags, and a quilt pattern for a Chanukah quilt. I've never seen this pattern before and I always look for Jewish-themed quilts and love to invent my own too. I will definitely try this one this year. Also, a small notebook, coffee, mints and a chocolate mint, mini seam ripper, a sewing-themed nail file (too small to see but it has sewing machines, measuring tape, thread, on it) (love it, wherever do you find those?), and 8 gorgeous FQs of batiks and black and white prints. Perfect - what a great SP package - thank you so much Crafty Darlene!

I saw a small hanging board yesterday in our thrift shop and it read something like:
Women are Angels, so when we lose our wings we just pick up the broom and continue to fly. :D

Wow! Super packages this month. Lots of pretty fabrics and great handmade items.
I got a great package from Mizkyp yesterday. She made me a Fourth of July mug rug and sent me some awesome RWB fabric, she must have picked up on the information I wrote that hubby's birthday is on the Fourth. As soon as hubby saw the mug rug he claimed it saying I have too many, lol, and then asked me what I am making him with the fabric. Maybe I'll make him an apron for grilling. :mrgreen:
She also sent me pretty batik FQs, Halloween socks and Koozie( another thing hubby claimed) and yummy candy that I regret to inform you that is no longer with us. The herbal tea box is so timely, as I just put it on my grocery list right before I got the package:)
Margie, thanks for being an awesome pal :P I love it all.

Love the beautiful and thoughtful packages this month. Great Job.
All these goodies have me excited for next month - have to start sewing now so a special little project will be done before the deadline in November. I know it is early to think about this but the reality is if I don't think about it now the deadline will sneak up on me and I won't have something special to send to my SP. Also have to get a couple Holiday items done as well.
If everyone mailed their packages and receives them in record time I'm sure Lori will do the Nov. swap sign up early.....right Lori?

Lori , that fabric is awesome ( I turned my head when I drooled, nothing got on it :mrgreen: ) but I am in love with that pin cushion. How can you all make these cute pin cushions?? Somebody really needs to teach me how to sew.
