Just to let you know....

My homework is done and I have pulled out my address book to send them off soon! If you are sick of hearing about my little pin pillows...sorry... Here are 2 more headed out to a new home..You cant see the pins I made too well, but they are in there....



"Tis Green" by La-D-Da/Roasted Chestnut GAST
JCS ornament preview issue
Liselotte freebie
Victorian Motto Sampler Thread-faded red



I also am noticing I have 200 followers now~~ How did that happen????????? My goodness! I am honored and I'd say this calls for a giveaway!!! SO......... look for an upcoming post soon showing you what I have in mind...It could be a Carriage House ( I have a couple duplicates...) Or, it just might be Blackbird or Little House Needleworks..............No telling!!! So, stay tuned......



On a personal note....I am calling out for prayers for my sweet 92 year old MIL...... She has been in ICU now for about a week with multiple problems.....She is the sweetest lady you could ever meet and she and I have been more like mother/daughter than you can imagine... She's a fighter and I am not ready to lose her...So, knowing how supportive we are in our blogging "family"...could you hold her in your prayers?



Until next time, ((**Hugs**)) to all of you......... Faye
