I love my postie

What a day this has been ... first I received a sparkly red package from the lovely Madam Samm from Stash Manicure, with so many goodies I went weak at the knees... look at these thimble thingies, notions and scrummy Layer Cake (mum, this means 48 coordinating fabrics all cut to 10" squares) Lovely warm earthy colours.  I'm thinking of making this quilt from them, adding maybe brown or dark green to make the diamonds

Then there were all these quilt patterns ... so many choices!

THANK YOU MADAM SAMM!!!

Then ... the postman handed me a bunch of envelopes and I was still looking at the bills when I realised some of the envelopes were squishies :-)

Yay!!!! 
These lovely trees came from Laura in GA, USA

 These fab trees came from Cathy in Australia...

And these super bright trees came from Maree in New Zealand - what an international forest this is going to be!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, all of you :-)

AND THEN

My new embroidery machine arrived a day early, so I haven't even had time to clear a space to unpack the box .. so that is my next job!
