Unexpected Angel Gift

I've been a sucker for swaps just lately, and having just received my swap partner info today for Scrappy Mug Rug Swap 3 today, and posted off a 2nd round of Pork Chop Swaps - both through Flickr groups, today was no exception.

Except today I received a package from Carol aka Mamacjt, an 'Angel Gift' to replace the package from my swap partner that still has not arrived from round 2.  It was definitely sent back in late November, unfortunately, the postal system has let us both down  :( 

Anyway, back to my package ...


Mug Rug, FQ's and an original Zentangle by Carol too!  And you all know how much I love feathers!  LOL


I love this mug rug, bright and beautiful!  And who can resist cupcakes?  I have to tell you, the Teenage Diva could not believe how loud I squealed when I saw I'd received a package from Carol, I think she thought I'd gone mad.  I'm hoping her hearing loss is not a permanent thing!  he he! 

And we baked cookies tonight...


... Mmmmm. delicious!

Thank you sew much Carol!

Happy quilting!
