Don't the days/months just seem to fly by?! It is August already! :-o One good thing about a new month is a new gift from my Secret Sister. I joined the HGTV quilting message boards Secret Sister Swap this year. Every month we get a gift from our big secret sister and we send one to our little secret sister. Well, I can't tell you who I send to, but I can tell you about the gifts I get each month. Last month my SS sent me the placemat kit I showed you in an earlier post and a few other neat things. This month she sent another adorable little pattern and kit! This one is for a mini quilt called "Oh My Stars!" by Lori Smith. I am going to force myself to get caught up on a few other things around here before I work on it, but it is calling me! :-) She also sent a very nice pincushion/thread catcher that she said someone made for her... someone from the message board! I wonder who??? :-) What is really nifty about this one is that it also has a little magnetic strip on it for my needle! I like that! I am always losing my needles in among the pins. And she sent a lovely candy dish and butterscotch candies~ everyone here likes those~ I'm having a hard time keeping the dish supplied! LOL ;-)

Wow, you made out like a bandit!!! Love those pincushion/thread catcher thingies. I keep one by my sewing machine and it is sew handy!
A lovely package to have received! Very nice! I see the pattern comes complete with the fabrics. How nice is that! Wow!
I am curious to see what you have been sewing....
Happy stitchings!
