IRISH.......

I have to say that I have a “wee, bit of the Irish in me” and that ‘wee bit” worked its magic these last few weeks. I seem to be on a “Luck of the Irish” winning streak for giveaways.
First, this darling pacifier clip to use for Little T from Giddy for Paisley.
Thank You so much!!

I was also a lucky winner from Pink Chalk Studio. I won a gift certificate and used it towards this wonderful group of fabrics.

Thank you Kathy


Next, I won Messy Karen’s Variety pack, it contained:

1 Dish Cloth.

1 Face Cloth.

2 Pretty Cloths.

3 Wavy Wipers.

4 Scrubbies.
And some yummy hand cream that smells divine!


Thank you Karen.


Now do not get mad, "tis the Irish in me I tell ya”
I was also one of the lucky winners from the Sewn giveaway from Sarah at The Last Piece I won one of her fabric packs of Red Letter Day “Galosh”
One of theses pretties is on its way to me!

Thank you Sarah

I have no idea how long this luck will last, but this little Irish Lass is very happy!!


On a different note; A while back I sent Beth from Wee Pereas, some selvages I had, as a thank you, she sent me this lovely piece of vintage fabric

Thank you Beth!


I am sure many of you heard that Bee Square Fabrics, is closing her doors. She had a 50% off sale and I was lucky enough to get there early. Look at all theses yummy fabrics I bought. Good Luck with your future endeavors!

Hmmm, I need to get sewing!!

Once I did, I decided to do all 40 at once!!
A very fun block!!
They are off to Margaret, to be mixed and a new mixture sent back to me.
This was a lot of fun!!
Here is what I did.

PIF Pink Heaven......

I am in PIF Heaven; I just received my PIF goodies from Mary Grace from Hooked on Needles. Oh my goodness, I really do not know where to start. Mary Grace really took the time to get to know me. All the goodies were wrapped in pink tissue.

She knew I liked cherries, so MJ sent a cherry card with a note in pink ink!! Also ribbon, a lot of ribbon! I love ribbon, and I have none of the ones she sent. Darling Notes cards!

Oh yes pink, did I mention two of her famous face clothes in pink. I had no idea how big they were!! I love them, but will I use them? You bet I will! The yarn MJ used is so soft and the perfect pink.

BUT, wait, that is not all, look at the purse she made!!! Wonderful, soft, beautiful, cotton candy pink, with… get this… beads in the purse. I have no idea how she did that.


It is also lined with pink fabric and there is a pocket. I adore this purse!!

I am so very lucky to have had Mary Grace as my PIF Friend. Thank you does not see to be enough for all this goodness, but I am so very grateful and so very happy. Thank you Mary Grace from the bottom of my heart!!!

Guess What?.....
