So go HERE and get your own to make.. or to let your kids make..
Monday must a popular mail day. I'm seeing some other blogs today about getting things in the mail. Did anyone else get their February issue of American Patchwork Quilting? I don't know what's inside yet, but I know it will be good.And this adorable embroidery came from T at Purple&Paisley. She knows how much I love Raggedy Ann. I will hang it up and think of her every time I see it.
Thanks Terri!!
Then my friend Helen whom I've known for a long time made and sent me some of her OOAK Art Cards for Thanksgiving. I have a whole collection of her wonderful cards.. all of them unique and interesting! The little pilgrims are so much fun.
My photos are so weird looking today. There isn't a speck of sunshine, and everything looks like we're in the bottom of the fish tank. But believe me, this package that came from Tonje is VERY sunshiny indeed.
I've been reading Tonje's blog A Step In The Right Direction ever since I started reading blogs.. all about her little girls and the things she crafts. So when she was coming up on an anniversary, I entered her give-away a few weeks ago, and won this beautiful package! It came all the way from Norway, and I do have a pin on my globe there. :-)
Inside is a tissue holder to keep in my purse, made by Tonje with her card attached, two fabric hearts I will hang on my Christmas tree, and a pair of warm slippers crocheted exactly like the ones my grandma used to make for us when we were little. They are navy with dark red flowers on the tops. I can't wait to put them on tonight.. they will keep my feet nice and snuggly. THANK you Tonje.I am so thankful for my family and my friends. Always.. not just this week.

Dear Eileen, congrats on so many goodies you have been receiving :P Now that globe sounds fun, I'll get the kids to try it..its school holidays here until next year, and I am enjoying the company of my 3 stooges..when they are not driving me crazy haha
You really had a lovely mail day! But what is the February issue of Am. Patchwork doing there in November? Maybe it is full of Valentine's day projects that need a long time to do.
Morning Eileen. What a lovely lot of presents! Slippers just how your Grandmother made must be so special. Beautiful acorns on the card. What a lovely idea with the globe. :-) My post today was a tube of "Hypoaspis" who eat sciarid flies. You know the annoying little ones on houseplant soil? Well daughter has had an infestation of them in her giant african land snail tank so now we have the cure. :-) Happy snails.
Beautiful goodies. you deserve them all
What a fun day Monday! I do know you have the sniffles so you must have been so cheered by all the lovely goodies. Love the paper globe, too. Of course, I will have to make one, too! Glad you liked you cards. Isn't it wonderful how we meet so many good people and make friends on the net? We are lucky, indeed, to meet so many kind, generous, creative people!
Great globe idea Eileen. Your raggedy ann from Terri is so cute. She's a sweetheart! Lots of other thoughtful goodies too. You're very deserving.
What a very nice Monday you had.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
What a lovely post! I like the idea of the globe with the pins in it :) And since it is so small, it looks like we don't live that far apart <3
Oh my Goodness, what a super mail day, all full of such wonderful goodies. Right now my feet are cold, i wish i had those slippers!!
What beautiful things! You know I love that Raggedy Ann!
That globe looks like a great project for my kids this vacation.
I'm glad you liked your prize.I took great pleasure making all those things, and I'm glad you were the winner. You are so deserving of it!
I must say you've had a great mail day. Those cards are really cute.
