Oh I love the mailman……….he only delivers mail twice a week but today was pretty good………..these amazing little girls came from the Ric Rac………….man is she one talented blog buddy………..they are so cute…………not sure if they will say something naughty or nice……….nice card tooo.......(management approves)
Then the Pincushion of the month organised by Sarah at Quilt Fabric Delights was tempting me for weeks and weeks since she first blogged about it………….last week I gave into the pressures………..and look what turned up in my mail box this week…………my first pincushion………..
Also in the mail today was this new card………..more markets next weekend........
My birthday finally ended this week………….someone told me you birthday went as long as you got presents………….this parcel was supposed to be here 4 weeks ago but the delivery people don’t deliver parcels in my area so I thought it was lost and finally (after some detective work) discovered it sitting in a depot in town ………….in the mean time the wonder ladies at Aussie Patches have sent out another one……..(still lost)……….no this is the wonderful ruler that I told you all about on the “New Inventors” (aussie show) and after it was on it won the people’s choice award the next week.…………dh organised it secretly…………he did good………
SSCS update…………..have you seen this……………I was in shock……Santa is so organised………..done, wrapped and ready to send…………..wonder where in blogland it will be delivered…………to many countries to choose from……….she even printed the logo and popped it onto the presents……..way to go Lyn…….she even made litttle tags with the logo........
Also thanks for the visits to the new blog…………the snappy friends have got quite a few posts up now………head on over.............
Take care til next time......

Happy Birthday to you Chook - perhaps it will last just a little longer. Love those little Ric Rac girls. Mine is not a rude one, just a typical ME saying. She is lovely. I love the new card too. I am working on mine at the moment. Just got your Snappy email via Junk mail.
OMG a xmas present wrapped.....the new cards is great....and the postie only twice a week it must be murder when you are waiting for something.
You have had a busy "birthday" week. Love it all....
I wish I had a mail man like yours - I'd love him too!
Had a quick squizz at the new blog but will go back for a better look later.
gotta go and do some cooking and cutting!
wow - a birthday that lasts a month! actually to be honest, i got some belated presents on father's day which was pretty much one month after my birthday. hope the ruler is as good as it looked on the show = you will have to do a review for us.

The little girl looks familiar, she may have beeen in an advertisement for Lactogen or children's food back in the 1940s. She is adorable. I think our mothers all thought we looked like that at dome time in our life. I know that all my dresses were heavily smocked or embroidered. The material was only headcloth, very cheap, but strarched and ironed up with a sheen on it. Sorry to take so long with my comment. Margaret
love the little girls from Ric Rac, the pincushion pattern looks gorgeous. It has been a good week in the mail for you. Very pleased to see you got one of those rulers. They look so nifty.
Happy birthday to you!! And it is supposed to last at least a month I think. LOL Love those little girls!! ADORABLE
I was so good and resisted the pincushion of the month........now I am so sorry, everyone is blogging about them and I'm jealous!
Wow, I haven´t even started thinking what to do for SSCS!
I love it when the mailman brings goodies. You got some really nice things, and I like the idea of birthdays lasting a month, I'll have to tell DH.
happy birthday to you!!! Iam going to my sewing room to start my SSCS! hope you get some more rain..
Cheers

I too had been looking at Sarah's lovely blog for weeks wanting to join the PCOM and finally joined today! I can't wait!!
Enjoyed reading some of your blog.
Question -- what is a Chooky?
I'm a Texas girl, Limpingalong, and I love photography and quilting. Girl, we are made for each other!
If you are interested in reading my blog drop me a line. I guess you can do that -- I'm new to this.
Right now I have a slide show going that shows pictures taken in Fayette County, Texas, of the Painted Churches. They are really quite lovely. Hope to hear from you!
Oh, yes, this is limpingalong again. My birthday was the 16th and I'm still celebrating!
If you gotta have them you might as well enjoy them! -- right?
