I Got MAIL…

…is an understatement!! 

We had our house-sitters put all of our mail into a large Rubbermaid tub while we were gone…YIKES!  Three and a half months of mail filled the tub!! 

BUT there was an UP side to this…before we left for holidays, I was lucky…VERY LUCKY!  I won a few Give Aways…so in that large bin I found these lovely things~

From Granola Girl I received these GORGEOUS quilt hangers!!!  They have hooks on the back where the rod sits so it looks like the birds and pinecones sit on the corners of your quilt!!  How cute are they?!P1130518

Believe me they look WAY better in REAL life…these pictures don’t do them justice!  Thanks so much Debbie!!  (Debbie sells them on her blog…and they are very reasonable too!!)

This Give Away was part of the Home For the Holidays Blog Hop…yes that was before Christmas!!  So thank you Debbie!!  I love them!!  Check out Debbie Fielding’s blog HERE!  You won’t be sorry…and check out all of her wonderful quilt hangers…they are all beautiful and unique!

From Sew Unique Creations Blog I received this WONDERFUL bundle of reproduction fabric (my first!!) and I must say…I LOVE IT!!!!  This line is called Shelbourne Calico Garden Fat Quarter Bundle and it is available in their online shop!

..this sweet ornament …do you remember it??  It’s from the Home for the Holidays Blog Hop and Buttermilk Basin gave the pattern away for FREE…?  You can still find it HERE.

Stacy even threw in two extra patterns!!  Thanks SEW much, Stacy!!

Now my only dilemma is which one to do FIRST??  Thanks so much, Thelma!!  I am thrilled!!

Well that was fun!  Happy early birthday to me!! Rolling on the floor laughing 

Now I need to unpack the 5th Wheel!!  DO I HAVE TO?  You can’t make me do it!! NOOOOOOooooooooooooooo!

It’s a dirty job but someone’s got to do it!!  Think I’ll unpack under the couch FIRST…this is where I stashed THE LOOT!! hee  hee

Have a FUN Friday and Happy Quilting! ~P

  4. Now that is nice mail to come home to.
    I love specialty hangers for curtains, so for quilts, that would be a nice idea. I used some cast iron ones for a wall quilt, makes it nice to be able to hang them and change them out when I want.
