I Have An Angel


FINALLY Friday YEAHH!!

We all have angels to look after us and I am so grateful.  In February I signed up for a Valentine swap with Cheryll over at http://stitchingcubbyhole.blogspot.com/.  But my partner had something come up.  Cheryll would email me to see if I received my gift and I had not.  Well my sweet angel Cheryll sent me this beautiful heart in the mail (I tried to get a good picture of the front and back)  along with some other goodies.


Cheryll is so sweet she also sent me some tea, tea towels, a body scrubber, purple heart ribbon and some mentos.  (ALL the way from Australia)  I was over the moon excited because I just LOVE surprises.  Thank you so much Cheryll you are a total sweet heart.  I am so glad you are my angel.


I have added some feed sacks to my shop http://www.donnaslavendernest.com/ There are still a few more to add but I could not wait to show you.  The last time I went to Warrenton treasure hunting I found a few whole feed sacks that look like they have never been used.  I snatched them up thinking of everyone who loves a pretty feed sack.

I did get another package in the mail this week but the batteries in my camera died.  Wouldn't you know it.  So I will be off to the store tomorrow to get more.

Wishing you all a HAPPY weekend.

Hugs,

Barn Blocks 5 and 6

Happy Friday Chickadee's



Block 5

I joined Lori's barn along over at http://beeinmybonnetco.blogspot.com/  For this barn I saw chickens.  I came across this fabric in my stash and knew it had to go in a barn.


Block 6

I got Bake Shop by Lori Holt at http://beeinmybonnetco.blogspot.com/ in my shop http://www.donnaslavendernest.com/ So I knew part of it had to be my roof for this barn.  These blocks are so much fun to make.  And it is not to late for you to start.  If you would like to join in you can go to Lori's blog http://beeinmybonnetco.blogspot.com/

Hope y"all have a great weekend.

Gardening and New Fabric In My Shop


I did not get any sewing done this weekend. Whaa!  I am not even sure where Friday went, Saturday I had to work and the highlight of my day was meeting my sweet husband and son for lunch.  The weather was so beautiful today, I spent most of the day cleaning out my flower beds and still have a long way to go.  David was so sweet he prepared a nice little picnic for us. 


This is the newest fabrics in my shophttp://www.donnaslavendernest.com/.  This collection is by Atsuko Matsuyama.  It is such a sweet 1930's collection.  It is listed under reproductions in my shop. 


I am over the moon with excitement, tomorrow afternoon Bake Sale by Lori Holt is suppose to arrive at my door.   This fabric is so cute and I can not wait to get my hands on it.  My goal is to have it all in my shop tomorrow night.  So on Tuesday you can stop by http://www.donnaslavendernest.com/ and see it.

Well Monday morning comes early for me 5:00 is so not my friend.  Sweet dreams chick a dees, hope you have a great start to your week.
