Polka Dot Swap and Sewing Cabinet

Well, time sure has flown by these days. I have been busy busy. Working on Christmas presents and some other misc projects. As promised I have a picture of my new sewing machine cabinet. My sis is major jealous and told me that Nate must love me more than her beau does because he won't get her one. I do love it!! Ha! Ha!



I finished my Polka Dot Swap goodies and sent them to California. And guess what!? On Friday I received some goodies in return from Esther. Thank you! I love the bag and the fabrics used. So fun and cute. I hope she likes all her wonderful things, because I sure enjoyed mine. Here are some photos of the things I sent and the things I received. I designed the little bag, lots of things going on in my head sometimes.


Had another sister sew in on Friday. Trying to get all my Christmas projects completed. I hope I make it. Planning on going shopping with my sister on the big BLACK FRIDAY! It's going to be an early one. Until next time.....

Luck of the Draw

I have neglected to report on my Stitcher's Angel partner. She has received her things so now I can let everyone know its Carol from Sweden!! Dorky me also forgot to take a picture of the goodies that I sent to her in Sweden. I am so glad that you liked them all. If you want to see what I gave to her please visit her blog (link above).
Swaps are a funny thing and it really is luck of the draw if you will receive anything. I am kinda bummed. My partner who was suppose to send me something from the Stitcher's Angel Swap didn't. I am not asking for pity, just to let others know that if you can't fulfill your obligations that it is pretty disappointing to the person on the other end.
On another note, Nate got a me a wonderful birthday present, A NEW SEWING CABINET!!! He even ordered by himself. It came last week and he finished putting it together this weekend. I LOVE IT!!! Photos to come later... Now I just have to reorganize my sewing room. I have been making my list of all the things I have to get done and my sewing room organization is at the top along with getting my swap goodies done for the Polka Dot and Ric Rack swap due this Saturday so I really have to get going to make the deadline!! I hope my swap partner will enjoy her goodies since she has no blog that I can spy on. It is making it really hard for me to know if I am on the right track. I guess I will just have to wing it. Until next time.....

Well, here I am 30 and I don't feel much different. Thanks for all the great comments. I enjoyed reading all them. Here is Nate drawing the winner.....


Now to announce the winner.........Sabine!!! You are the winner. If you could email me your address, I will get your goodies into the mail. Enjoy!! It has been a whirlwind around the bungalow lately. This past weekend I went to Minneapolis with our local quilt shop owner to help her pick out fabric for her store. What a fun experience and so interesting!! It was kinda a last minute thing but I sure was glad I was able to go. As a bonus we even had time to visit IKEA!! What fun! Congrats again, Sabine! Until next time.....
