awesome goodies. time I sent something else to my angelee. I haven't send anything since the first part of Feb. Ment to send a card.... I try to alternate a small package with a card so each month she gets both.

laparshall 02-26-2010 06:09 AM

More great gifts. Nice job Angels.
Gladgrams: Love that Pig, and you got some fun fabric.

Imjustme: You got some beautiful fabric and a great book. Making a quilt in memory of your brother will be very healing. Take your time, you'll get there eventually.

I'm off to think about my Angelee.

That is really pretty fabric

Next, came the "re"mailed gift in which my Angel sure made sure I got some great piggies a real "stuffed" one, fabric for my collection and adorable pig note cards. My pig friend, who is now named Penelope is sitting on my shelf.

She has the honor of holding the new bubble gum machine I rec'd as a gift last week.

She and I don't mind if others laugh at us! She is great company and will help me decide what to make with the new fabrics. The blue sparkly with polar bears is VERY appropriate at the moment, since we have been getting snow nearly daily for 2 weeks.

Thank you SQA - you are a dear

All of the gifts are very nice, but Penelope is the cutest...she can help me any day...I too have "pig friends" Miss LuLu stands guard my in my flower bed and lit bit protects my front porch; then there are numerous friends inside.

Sooooo where do I begin..... Today I recieved a letter from my ANGEL this was my first time hearing from her. I was needless to say SHOCKED, and I thought no-one was thinking about me. Well lets just say that after reading the 3 page letter I know differently!!!! I ammmmmm soooooo excited to just have someone think about ME! I don't even know her and the fact that so much is going on in her life that she took the time for me. Well lets say this after a few tears I am SO THANKFUL to know I really have an ANGEL!!!

Thank you whomever you are.... I will pray for you and your family!

Ducky 02-26-2010 12:55 PM

Awwww, Grams, I love Penelope! Anytime she needs a vacation to the US, just let me know!

montanaquilter 02-26-2010 01:01 PM

Dawn-really glad that your angel finally got ahold of you! it's nice when we know that someone somewhere is thinking about us isn't it??!!

Dawn Hendrix 02-26-2010 01:13 PM

OO it is the awesomest feeling.. NOW I KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS BEEN FEELING!!!!!

Yeah every once in the while I will get a burr on my thread spool and the thread catches on it and will break. Broke my needle once, so I filed it. Works like a charm! :-D

:-D :-D My secret "Pink Angel" sent me a packet today. What a surprise. Made my day,as I have a lazy slug. Thanks sooo very much and I should say Hi back to you. Answers to your ? Yes I have an old cat and an old dog, they are pets and not allowed in and my husband is adamant about this. My favorite animal, real animal?
I can't really answer that I am not sure. In a fantasy I would say Alpaca but I don't want one. They are just pretty. I have my own sewing room, small bedroom with all my stash, hardwood flooring and anything I am hiding from company, in a hurry.. :oops: I am taking a class in Stack n whack. Just made my 8th block since Monday. YEA ME! MY list of 3 quilting wishes are.....new rotary blade. new mat and way way out there is an accuquilt, since I have shoulder issues and makes cutting accurately hard.
I wish you a great weekend Angel and thanks again for your thoughtfulness. I do have one wish can you make me a good Quilter???
This is what I got today. Hugs!

Dawn Hendrix 02-26-2010 04:02 PM

wichypoo 02-26-2010 04:12 PM

Oh, my gosh! That pig is so cute. I just love pigs, they are one of my favorite animals. I know, I'm wierd.

:oops:

GladGrams 02-27-2010 02:11 AM

I am SO glad to hear there are others who truly appreciate piggies. I know they can be seriously dangerous if they are not socialized as little piglets, however when they are, they are hilarious. One of my quilting buddies has 2 pot belly pigs named "Olav" and "Marta" (names of former king and queen of Norway), they are fun to watch and interact with.

They had matching Christmas outfits made in our class and were quite the beauties for the holidays.

brushandthimble 02-27-2010 04:58 PM

I received a "Thinking of you" card today from my SA. Thank you!! I really needed a pick me up, thank you so much!

mjsylvstr 02-27-2010 08:34 PM

Ladies.

Sunday is the last day of February.....
which means that Monday is the first day of March.

WHERE DOES THE TIME GO????

We should be thinking of all our angelees and getting a card out to them with good wishes to let them know that we are thinking of them.

Get the stamps, the pens and the cards ready...set...&...send.

I heard from my angel in Jan and that's it. I was told she or her family was sick. I hope she is getting cards :-D

Chrickett 02-28-2010 12:39 PM

I have only heard from my angel once in January, I hope she is well and happy. I wanted to wish her a happy St. Pats day, even though I do not know you. I think of you lovingly often.

lfw045 02-28-2010 03:38 PM

I've only heard oncw from my angel in January. St. Patty's Day is the 17th I believe. Time to shop green for my Angelee!!!!!!!!

OdessaQuilts 02-28-2010 07:24 PM

Well, I've heard from my Angel at the beginning of Jan and the beginning of Feb. I suspect I'll hear from her this next week as it is the start of March. I'm soooooo excited! I love getting mail.

Yes, St. Patty's day is the 17th. Time to get some Kelly Green wishes for my Angelee, too.

Happy March, Angels and Angelees!

well, just look at this. this came just minutes ago from my sqa, what a thoughtful & caring angel! a book titled "Pretty Little Cozies". it has lots of patterns in it for making everything you could possibly think of to wrap around things to make it cozy. like casserole covers, cup covers etc etc. i will definitely enjoy making some of these for gifts, so neat. also a stack of fat quarters in greens, now i'll have to think what to make out of them, such pretty colors. also.....an insulated ceramic glass/cup for hots or colds (Ellen Degeneres Cup), how neat. it's a very nice glass - solid, i just believe i'll have my coffee out of it tomorrow morning. and also a st. patrick's day card. I just can't believe i'm getting such nice nice things. thank you so much SQA ---oh and i just found another thing wrapped in a square of fabric, it's one of those i think chalk markers, i remember having one of those years ago but forgot what they are called or what they are made out of. but here's a picture of that too. Thank You, Thank You, i love it all
