Some mail just for me :-)

Yesterday I went to my mailbox and inside was a package just for me , I immediately ripped it open and it was then my heart skipped a beat , I mean really it did . You see inside was the pattern Betsy's Closet along with this delightful charm pack "walk in the woods" by Moda a gift from my friend and fellow blogger Lesley of the Cuddle Quilter .

I will share a little secret about myself, as a child I loved paper dolls , I was always thrilled to receive a new paper doll book for birthdays or Christmas and even drew my own complete with clothes . My favorite paper dolls were Betsy McCall , I loved the designs , the dolls were so sweet and the clothing just as cute, so this pattern brings back so many wonderful memories .Just wait until I share this with my sisters , they were big fans as well . Sadly you don't see paper dolls like when we were kids or at least I have not come across any . Thanks so much Lesley for making my day and I know I will really enjoy stitching these up .
 Now this morning the mailman came again with another parcel just for me , it was wrapped in a bright red plastic envelope with my name on it and it came from Mdm. Samm. I was a recent winner in a bloghop "In Your Words"as a participant and the prize was this incredible fat quarter bundle from Timeless Treasures along with a spool of Aurifil thread and two sweet notecards by Amy Bradley .

Thanks so much to Mdm. Samm and also to the generous donors of prizes , Timeless Treasures , Amy Bradley and Aurifil thread , I really appreciate this bundle of goodness. I love taking part in the blog hops , they are always fun and so inspirational . I just finished my piece for the Its all about Me , now that was a blast to make and wait until you see what I have done, I think it is hilarious  .
I am off now to drool over my lovely mail, well no I won't do that but I will be admiring it . Enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by .
