A GRRRReat Mail day....

Yesterday brought so much that my stitchy cup runneth over!! Starting off with a super Prairie Schooler Box from Becky S. Here is a snap -


and a snap of the inside -



It is so gorgeous and I just love it!! This is for the first round of the Year Long Prairie Schooler Exchange. Thank you so much Becky!!!!

The mails also brought some stash - and can you ever have too much stash???
Here is a snap of the haul -


The Drawn Thread charts are from a trade I am doing with Sherry and two things I have wanted to do for the longest time. The BBD charts are 4 new things they just released. The "Two Hands" chart is the last in the series from last year - I really do not care for this at all - but it does contain the last part of the Mystery Sampler - and I needed it for that! I really like the little stocking patterns and presume they will release a chart of three stockings for each month since these are January, February and March. I just love the little stocking ornament that Vonna made for me from the JCS Ornie Magazine - so wanted to get these as companion pieces.

Mailing out today - Prairie Schooler Exchange, Ornament Exchange, Wintery Give-away, and a small giftie - all should arrive in a few days.

Thank you all for stopping by, and for the super sweet comments!!!!!

Do come again!!
Take care,
edgar
