Goodies in the Mail, A Spring/Easter Exchange and A Giveaway

I don't have any stitching progress pictures to post at the moment (hopefully in a day or two, I will) but I have received some goodies in the mail lately. First I took part in a Valentine Card Exchange at the San Man Originals MB. My partner, Tonya, sent me a lovely card with lots of extra goodies.


I sent her a card I made using this template and pink textured card stock. I also stitched her a Floss Tag (I forgot to take a picture of it before mailing it, but you can see a picture of it on Tonya's Blog here. I used the pattern Love Bug by Erynne Chard © 2008. and I attached a skein of WDW Romance.

Earlier this week, I received two exciting packages in the mail. First, Aubree, picked up on my love for anything Nutcracker related - I wonder what gave me away ;) - and sent me the "The King's Drummer" by Medeiros Needlecraft Design. Isn't he adorable.


Second I received the first of the 2011 Ornament from Little House Needleworks - "Cardinal Winter" along with the fabric to stitch it on and the Crescent Colours & WDW threads called for in this pattern and the "Peppermint Twist" chart (2010 Ornaments).


Yesterday, I joined another exchange - a Spring/Easter Exchange - hosted by Elaine. If you are interested, she has extended the deadline to join to this Tuesday. The details about the exchange can be found here.

Also, Deborah is having a wonderful giveaway on her blog to celebrate reaching 300 followers (she is now at 370). She is drawing a winner tomorrow (Feb. 14th) evening.

Happy Stitching!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. - I am planning to have another giveaway once I have reached 100 followers. I only need 4 more so invite your friends.

Thanks again for all your lovely comments.
