Not One....but TWO!!!

I have been a very lucky blogger this last week! I won not one but two giveaways! WOW!!

Well, both packages arrived in todays mail!

The first win was from Myra over at G8dame's Place. I won one of her little boxes! Myra stained and waxed the box and included a lovely piece of fabric for finishing!


Thank you so much Myra! I will treasure this box!

My second win was from Pam at Confessions of a Southern Stitcher! Pam's giveaway was a needlebook and scissors fob which she had stitched, but she surpised me with so much more as you can see from this picture!


Can you believe all the goodies! Look at Pam's beautiful stitching! And the little buttons she sent are so cute! The scissors are just lovely!


Pam included two pieces of linen, some beautiful silk threads and "A Sheltering Tree" design. And don't you just love that lady bug cookie! It's too cute to eat!


Thank you Pam for all of my goodies! I love it all and really appreciate your generosity!

On the stitching front, I am sorry to say that not much stitching has been going on this week. I did make a start on "Ann Grant" but only managed to put in 25 stitches or so, so no picture update. This is my first time working with silk thread and I have to say I love it. The thread is so soft and beautiful and just glides through the fabric.

Hopefully more stitching will happen over this weekend! I really want to finish my LHN "Virtue Sampler" and get more stitching in on "Ann Grant". I will certainly give it my best to accomplish these goals!

Blessings to all and happy stitching!
