Box from Robin -- picture included!

Robin aka Blaze LaFlame sent me this powerfully packed goodie box! I love this month's theme! I received a terrific scarf/hat pattern and two Big Skeins of lime green yarn to make them. She tucked in a wood crochet (have I mentioned I adore wooden hooks) in a size I didn't have, either! Also inside were some baking goodies ... a cute oven mitt, beautiful mug and lots of tea bags to help me stay warm. PLUS, the gem of it all, are some recipes from Robin's house to mine. I hope I didn't forget anything. Thank you so much!!

A Big thank you goes out to Charity!! I loved this package! I reiceved a pumpkin, crochet hook, 3 balls of yarn, stickers, 3 bags of candy, as well as a few other cute surprises. She also sent several patterns for me to choose from. Now I just have to deside which one to make! Thanks again Charity!

My September swap

Here it is, in all its' glory;) As you can see, Shanda spoiled me with a punchneedle kit, some candles, a beautiful handmade card, some pumpkin scent and last, but certainly not least, Milky Ways! Hooray! I would have posted earlier but I wasn't feeling so hot. But the Milky Ways made it in spite of the heat;) I'm debating whether they will go into a cake or just "raw" in my mouth.
Thanks so much, Shanda

Thank you Shawnee!!!

My package arrived today! We had gone out to lunch & stopped by Barnes & Noble so the wee one could play w/the train table.

My package was waiting by my door when we got home & this is what was in it! Shawnee topped everything off w/ cute "trick or treat" tissue paper & underneath was a pattern for a felted pumpkin bag/trick or treat basket. The yarn to make the project, a Halloween mag (crafts, goodies & yummy treats!), a pumpkin pen, eyeball note pad, scary tape & the cutest felted bag which my 3 yr old has claimed for her dolls! She went prancing about w/ it on her arm & her little Disney Princess dolls in it!

Thanks again Shawnee! You are too sweet!
