First Received Second ;)

Wow, again!!!  My first win from Blue Nickel Studios arrived after the second package I won….see, first win received second 😉  My first ever blog givaway win arrived on Saturday but due to the holiday weekend, we forgot to get the mail until after the fireworks yesterday!  I was amazed to see a LARGE envelop from Scott at Blue Nickel Studios and opened it right then.  Thank you Scott!  Here are the pictures:

Check out how fun Scott wrote my name.  The purple bag is a great size and those who know me, know I love bags.  Love the quilt label.

Nice pad of paper, cute little stocking, little snips of fabric are great, especially the orange print, but the best is the little mini City Weekend charms.  Below is a picture with the blue nickel, ya gotta love that!, Scott sent so you can see just how petite the charm squares are.

Those charms are just darling!

Some fabric, notice the scissor fabric in both the white w/black and black w/white colorways 🙂  And some MORE fabric!!

I love the pinks, especially the pink/green print and check out those owls!  I added the total new fabric to my stash report earlier, estimating 2 yards from both givaways, probably is more but that’s the number I’m going with!

My SIL & BIL came to visit for the 4th of July and we had a fun weekend.  My SIL & I made thread catchers and they turned out so cute.  Here’s the two we finished, artfully arranged with Hydrangeas by my SIL, and two we almost finished.  Great company, food, fun, fireworks (the fireworks by the Arch are just amazing) and a bit of sewing to boot.
