I'm So Glad It Finally Arrived!!!

I'm So Glad It Finally Arrived!!!

Now I have to say this was my fault for Donna @ http://chookyblue.blogspot.com/ to be the last one to receive her package, I even sent it a few days early. My costly mistake was not looking at the address and it was sent back to me. So across the big ocean it went again.

This is what I sent

Donna had color choices of blue and country, I hope I did OK for her table topper.

Last, I want to thank Stephanie @ http://loftcreations.blogspot.com/ for having this Tea Time Swap, I loved being in this one and you were a Grand Hostess.

Don't forget about the "Surprise Spring Giveaway" below...

A SPRING GIVEAWAY!!!

A SPRING Giveaway!

It's that time to get busy with a little spring cleaning and I'm ready for another giveaway. This always makes me feel good and this time it will be something I made. I'll post pictures later, just haven't made up my mind. Maybe a purse for spring or one of the teapot items, just not sure. It might be a surprise and you just have to enter. Now that sounds like fun. Just leave me a post here.

It's a beautiful day today,

Thank you for entering, it is now closed.

Towel for Customer and 2nd Grandbaby, a hoot!

Towel for Customer and 2ND Grandbaby, a hoot!

I had an order for a towel I had sent Susan @ http://blackberrycreek.typepad.com/blackberry_creek/

The order was for a jade color and do you know how many shades that color has? I thought I would take a picture and put in on my blog to see if she still wants it. I digitized this when I started thinking tea swap. So Dianne let me know if this is OK.

The next picture is one I just couldn't pass up. My second grandbaby who is 2 years 4 months saw my bra and asked, "Is that for your ninnies?" Now I don't know how to spell this and I guess she got this word from my daughter. I said yes and she said she wanted some. So as a Mimi, I did what she wanted. So I tied a bra around her and stuffed with tissue. She was so proud. Just wait till she gets older, you just aren't so proud then.

Tea Swap Package Arrived!!!

Tea Swap Package Arrived!!!

Look what all arrived today from Donna @ http://chookyblue.blogspot.com/

Thank you so much, brought some sunshine into my life, which is really needed at this time. The little quilt top will look great in my guest bedroom, which I have teacups and plates hung all over. As I write this the teacup she sent is getting well used with some orange spice tea in it.

Donna has so much talent with her photos, I wrote her and told her they need to be published. I don't know if I can bring myself to use the cards, they need to be framed. And last you know a girl can never have to much fabric.

Thank you again Donna,

Look what Stephanie has done to me!!!

Look what Stephanie has done to me!!!

OK, I have to stop making these. When I joined Stephanie @

http://loftcreations.blogspot.com/ with the tea swap, I had no idea what it would do to me. I can't stop thinking about teapots and I need to switch gears for the spring swap Linda @ http://all-stitched-up.blogspot.com/ is having. Love to join these and meet new bloggers.

Maybe I can use some of these for the spring swap. I will never tell...

Oooops, one of the roses is upside down on the teapot. I might have to tilt the setting like it is pouring out tea.

I'm Back!!!

I'm Back!!!

Our house is empty after a long tough week. My husbands brother passed away on Monday of last week and we have not stopped. It has been wonderful to be with all the family and knowing that he is not suffering anymore has been one of the things we prayed for.

I wish they could find an answer to all the cancer, it is a horrible disease.

I'm waiting to get the news that my tea swap partner recieved her package so I can post pictures. I got a card to pick up something at the post office, can't wait to see what it is tomorrow.

I'll be trying to catch up on everyone's blog-look on the side bar for a button that goes to all the blogs I follow. Keep adding more each day and the list was so long I made another blog.

Hope all is well with everyone,

What do we Pray, in time of need...

What do we Pray, in time of need...

My husbands brother is not doing well. He has cancer and has been battling it hard for over a year. We are so thankful that he has been with us for this time, but it is at this time, I ask, "What do we pray"?

He is not in pain or at least we do not think so, due to medicines, which we are so thankful for. I do believe he is a very faithful man and how we all want him to be with us longer, but yet we don't want him to suffer. His wife is the one that is his rock and he is hers. The love that they share is so strong.

I went through this with my Mom and it got to a point I prayed please God open your arms and let her in. Now if you knew my Mom they probably had bells on and a huge parade when she arrived. She had so much faith. When we were at MD Anderson, all she would say, with a big smile, "I'll be fine either way". How I miss her.

So I just want to say I probably want post as often, but my swap partners your gifts are done. My tea swap partner gift will be sent out tomorrow and I'm so glad to have gotten started on Linda's spring swap early. That doesn't happen very often.

(John 14:27) Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Faith...is being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not see

Hebrews 11:1

Thank you Stephanie-Sneak Peek-Moda Fabric

Look at this cute giftie Stephanie @ http://loftcreations.blogspot.com/ made all of us in the tea swap. She is always making the cutest things. I had to make me some tea before I sat down to post. Thank you so much Stephanie.

I had to sneak in another picture I had taken earlier of my gift I'll be sending soon. Almost done.

I know I haven't even listed all the fabric I have, in the shop, but look what I put together for a project. You know MODA is my middle name. I'm getting ready for spring with a lot of ideas floating around. Too many, I'm thinking I'm on overload.
