Some surprises for me.....

Many of you know "Micki" and read her blog: Irish Muses. Well.....I got a surprise from her recently. A package with these goodies (shown below) that she made for me. She is a very talented gal and I treasure having items made by her. Thanks, Micki!!!


I am going to make the tea towel the center part of a quilt eventually. I've seen others do that and liked how it turned out.


Great card came in the package, beautifully made!Today is my daughter's 28th birthday. I hope she has a wonderful day. She is going with her hubby and another couple to a concert tonight....a group I don't know, but they all seem quite excited about it. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Tara!!!

Micki is so sweet. Those are some lovely goodies. Happy Birthday to Tara. I would sing it, but she sings better than I do.

What lovely gifts. I especiallly love the card... oh, and the towel and, well all of it. I haven't seen a tea towel worked into a quilt, so I'm anxious to see what you do.

I love the little stitchery, and Stampin' Quilter Barb will especially appreciate the lovely card. Happy Birthday to your daughter -- wondering what group they are seeing! I'm aware of a few from my own daughter.

Happy Birthday Tara! Enjoy your day and the concert. When I still had my Dear Mom I used to give her a small gift or flowers on my birthday, after all if it weren't for her giving birth to me I wouldn't have had any birthdays. She was thrilled when I did it. Miss you MOM

Happy birthday to your daughter!

Lovely goodies - lucky you to get such good mail!

You took a few days off? I was wondering where you'd got to this week...

I hope your daughter has a wonderful birthday. I love your gifts. Making a quilt with the tea towel sounds like a very original idea. It's a nice way to preserve it.

Best wishes~
