Mail call!

Lookie, lookie what I got from Carolyn in the mail over the weekend! She makes the cutest stitchmarkers out of scrabble pieces. So cute. And what a great idea to mark increases and decreases with...super smart girl that Carolyn. Go check out her blog, she sews too! She makes the most interesting stuff, you may want to see her tutorial on making a binder for your circular needles out of a regular 3-ring binder...very cool! Thanks again Carolyn!

I have been terribly neglectful in posting a picture of a fun package I got from Amy at Easter. We share a love of all things Paris, so when she saw this Paris tape measure, she thought of me. So sweet! She made the flower for me, and the funny part is, I had just made that same pattern for my Flower Swap pal! We are always making similar projects without knowing it, and finding out after the fact. It's just one of those funny/weird coincidences. The teacups weren't part of the package...those are for Amy's benefit because I'm always striving to take pretty pictures like she does!! How did I do Amy? Ha!

Cross your fingers everyone...I still don't know if I have just a half day off, or the whole day. But I am knitting, and that's a good thing indeed!

Those Scrabble stitch markers are great. I bought a set for my SP & she loved them. Believe me, I was debating until the last minute whether or not to keep them for myself. I love the I & D for inc & decs! What will Carolyn think of next???
