The mailman brought me mail goodies today, woot! A little while back I was one of 2 winners of Caroline's giveaway at her blog The Contented Quilter. You should see her new studio, the pics of it are wonderful :^) Anyway here's what was in the parcel...
Cider Mill Road by Art to HeartFig and Plum charm pack
a Teddy Bear pin cushion (I think I'll put him on a shelf and admire him)
who needs a name,
and this lovely card!, all the way from England to me in Canada! Thanks Caroline!
My package my the Quilt Shoppe finally arrived. Woot! Postmarked Oct 8th in California, it arrived to my house here in Canada Oct 22nd; it took 14 days to get here???
Inside is my October Schnibbles fabric and pattern "Cindy Lou Who".I'm still working on the September Schnibbles which is coming along nicely. Could I get both tops completed before I leave on my quilt retreat on the 30th, in 8 days time? Tune in and find out, alright? Nothing like a deadline and a challenge, LOL
Remember if you want to enter my giveaway leave a comment on this post here. Until next time...

Go girl go! Let's do this together. Don't let that old Grinch get you. We can make it to the finish line! Keep that needle going up and down.
Isn't it great waiting weeks for things to clear customs?? I'm pretty sure I'm not going to get mine by the end of the month let alone get it sewn.
You can do it!! Congrat's on your win. Looks like lots of fun! :-)
You should be given extra long months if you have to wait so long to get the package!! Love the win!! Great Stuff!!! You could put the bear in striped pajamas and he can be Brother Bear in Striped Pajamas :0)
