What a Treat!

I have to share this wonderful treat I got in the mail yesterday...it came from Mona (no blog)...she said that she had made some of these "Huswiffs" from Kathleen Tracy's book Remembering Adelia and thought I might like one...I flipped...I just love it. Thank you so much Mona.

I have to show you this picture of the boys from this morning...their dad went to the gym this morning and they went to the windows by the front door as his car went down the driveway...they stayed there until his car came back in. They were both looking out the window until they heard the camera turn on...at least the didn't come flying at the camera like they usually do...they just made themselves look cute...LOL!

As promised in my last post, I posted some Jan Patek books and some Kansas Trouble Quilters fat quarters over on brownquiltsandmore.blogspot.com...I did some more organizing this morning and found lots of Jan Patek books. I'll be back with some more...

What a great shot of Zack and Howie. I know what you mean about the camera. It's no easy feat getting a good photo sometimes. Some like to pose, others like to run for the camera or the hills. It's not so funny I think but the animinimals {me, making up words}...I think they do!

What a pretty sweet treat you received. I love the fabrics in there, too. Gosh, you're a lucky, blessed lady and it's well deserved, too!

In my neck of the woods, we call those "needlecases". What a lovely gift.
Your dogs are so cute. I bet they love having each other to play with.

I just had to comment after reading your profile. I too just closed my shoppe after 6 years, (still am on the road doing shows and have the website), but was wondering if it was as hard on you as it has been on me. I'm sad!! But life goes on. The economy hit us hard just like everyone else, and some health issues forced us to re-evaluate life!

oh how I know that look... the boxer boy as we like to call him...aka Kota... Kota always knows when its time for his Dad to come home from work and he parks himself in front of the dining room window where he has a good view of teh gate coming into our property.. and as soon as he sees his Dad's truck at the gate, he tells the world "he is home!" :O)
