And in the spirit of the season, I had ordered some books for my dear friend, unfortunately the post is still disrupted because of the snow. So, it was time to break out the emergency plan...
I little free motion quilting (sorry about the pic, it was late last night, and very dark)
+ Notebook =
This morning the Teenage Diva and I were out early for a little retail therapy, and we both had lunch plans, so this had to come with me to be wrapped once I got into town and bought the wrapping!
I'm delighted to say, my gift was received graciously :) And a lovely lunch was had by all...
And then I got home...
to a good mail day!
(still several packages known to be missing, so I'm still eagerly awaiting the arrival of my Scrappy Mug Rug 2 from my swap partner, and the missing books!)
Tomorrow, a sewing day, more gifts to make (I have a cunning plan), Bee blocks to catch up on before the holidays, and my own month to plan. And a little C&G to be done!
Oh, I had a wonderful e-mail to tell you about too!
Happy Quilting!
Ohhhhhhh that notebook cover is out of this world!!!
