I very rarely find any surprises in my mailbox. Just the usual ads and bills. :-o
So imagine my surprise to not only get one, but two surprises in my mail this week!!! :-)
First a Ziploc full of selvages. :-) I have been saving them for a project, but it seems like such a slow process to save by yourself. Well, I was in a swap and the swap leader enclosed the baggie full of selvages with my returned blocks! Surprise!! :-)
And then one of the ladies who took my mystery class at retreat sent me that darling star pincushion!
Surprise!! She stuffed it with some walnut shells, a little sand and some lavender buds~~ it smells heavenly!!
Neither of these ladies blog, but they both are excellent quilters and they just blew me away! :-)
I hope you had a great week too!
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!

Somebody likes you!! ;) What are you doing with selvages?? I like the look of them when they are used so just curious.
That pincushion is definitely cute and putting the lavender into it was very clever. If you need more selvages, let me know because I have a large container of them. I've saved them for years and have made a few small projects with them. But I certainly have more than enough to share.
How nice. It does take forever when you are collecting by yourself.
Kindness helps gives us a new perspective!
