Christmas In August

look what mr. postal worker brought me monday.   

first off, coleen sent me these cute little stitch markers as part of Pay It Forward.

aren't they pretty? 

then the wonderfully generous and creative anjo sent me this wonderful project spectrum package.

a quilted card.                                  a ribbon and button pin.

a project spectrum CD -- the color mix.  check it out.

finally, some thread and floss in august neutrals and the best neutral of them all -- chocolate.  thank you anjo!

then cathi sent me this awesome package packed full of stuff.  you know the kind of package that when you go looking through the packing material you actually find more stuff:  "french" stitch markers, mini toy car, 7 episodes of veronica mars 2nd season, a denver coffee mug (yes, we'll have that cup of coffee together in real life some day), a gnome patch, jam, candle ...

beautiful red sock yarn ...

mints ... heh heh

i think my favorite part of this package though is all of the little post-it  notes that she stuck on every item explaining where she got it, why she got it, which little pink tore into it before she could put it in the box (they like mints i hear and mini coopers).   thank you cathi.  thank you so much.

thank you all.  i was really touched that you thought of me.
