~~~~My day was just awesome~~~~

When I got home and saw my giveaway win had arrived, I said a big "YES~!"
Sweet Brenda had sent my winnings on to me....Such a feast for the eyes...

You can imagine how excited I was when I opened the box and saw this full yard of Williamsburg Sampler fabric.........Oh my goodness!!

Honestly, I could frame this and claim it as a handstitched sampler....just beautiful... 
 And, my package had a La-D-Da kit "O Birdy" along with a hand punched darling bunny~~~
 Such talent Brenda has!!....This is a craft I do not attempt, but I can tell you this photo does not begin to do justice to the beauty of this cute pillow....darling and I cannot wait to showcase it with my spring stitched pieces..........
 And, of course I was giddie to get this La-D-Da kit....Silks, hand dyed fabric, chart...It even comes with its own piping to use when finishing!! LOVE IT~~~

 And, to top is all off, the giveaway included a 50.00 Gift Certificate to Down Sunshine Lane~~~ I tell you, I nearly passed out when I learned about my winnings!!  Those of you who know DSL, know how easy it is to order from Amy and how prompt she is to fill and ship your orders...  Go check her out~~~

I certainly am a lucky lady!!...There is nothing like stitching friends....
Thanks again so very much Brenda!!!

Speaking of La-D-Da, I wanted to show you a little of my progress on this 4th "up for a challenge" piece in my WIP basket....I thought since it was February and "love" is in the air, I would work on
 Love Spoken Here....

Here it was the end of December 2010...
 And, here is my progress as of last night..........
Okay folks.....Hope everyone had a great Wednesday...We are on the downslide heading to the weekend!!! Milder weather here in the Carolinas this week.....

Have a great stitching evening~~~

Faye
