February Mini Cloth Sampler from Elizabeth arrived! Yippee 2!
 |
| Pictured above is the mini cloth sampler from Elizabeth, my new swapper friend Elizabeth. Isn't the sampler the sweetest? Things are coming up roses in our farm mailbox in February! |
 |
| Oh my....just look at the notions she tucked in for a surprise. If you are participating in the 2015 Mini Cloth Sampler swap...you may receive some of them stitched into a banner if you are the person who I mail to. |
 |
An artist can never have too many heart shaped buttons, ribbon and lace. She even tucked me in 'chocolate tea'...what a treat as I don't even know where to find it. Thank you so much Elizabeth Q.!! It is a blessing getting to know you better and better. |
Hugs!

February 2015 - Mini Cloth Sampler Swap (for May O.)
 |
'Mayke new friends but keep the old.
One is silver and one is gold'.
 |
| Love working with my silver metallic thread! I must find and purchase gold metallic as I know it'll be awesome too. One thing about silver on white...silver isn't very visible in photography. |
 |
 |
Gold heart button and silver trinket...
 |
| On backside of cardboard trinket... my blogspot address was added. Sorry not a good photo. |
 |
| Are you seeing double? Yes! Creating two of the same mini cloth samplers each month I participate in www.aswapforallseasons.blogspot.com |
It was more than the silver and gold thread that ties my heart to the new friendship with May O.
May is amazing. I'm loving mayking new friends like Elizabeth, May and of course stitchin'.
Happy heart month! You are loved.

January Mini Cloth Sampler from Debbie arrived! Yippee!
 |
| What wonderful mail received on Sunday! Thank you Debbie!! I was out of town over the weekend and worried about our unstable mailbox...plan to work on or replace it soon. The visit was really good...went to spend time with my sister Mary who has been ill. The January Mini Cloth Banner you created for me arrived safely and I love it! The little shell shaped buttons are so sweet and the heart trim....it's so pretty. Red is the color of January birthstone right? It has been intriguing...every time I look, I discover something simply the sweetest! |
 |
| The backside photo is as delightful as the front! A double sided banner. There are even little wooden hearts on the petite clothes pins. Precious. |
 |
| Debbie...Debbie...darling Debbie....she couldn't help add a little something extra and I'm thinking...maybe the ribbon notion may take part in hanging my banner. Maybe I'll wear it in my hair for St. Valentine's day. Really? Really. After all 'girls just want to have fun...all ages'. How did Debbie know that I'm a 'heart' lover? Most favorite 'The Sacred Heart of Jesus'. I love all hearts and think about God's love...every time I see a heart whether it's a heart shaped cloud, hearts stitched or printed on fabric or paper...etc... |
 |
| Sunday was a double blessing day as I received Debbie's mini cloth banner gift and a beautiful thank you card/note from my new friend Elizabeth. The messages on the paper arts that Elizabeth enclosed in her letter, provide inspiration I need. Thank you both very much! Friends, you make my heart smile! |
 |
| Heart felt thanks! Happy stitching everyone and remember a stitch in time saves nine. Gosh I remember reading that cliche years ago when I was a young mother. Learned there is truth within the words. Patty in Oz |
