Playing Catch-Up

Last week I committed to Amy's One Thing, One Week Challenge.

I picked two things which I can say I accomplished.

First off, I made a dress.
It was to big so I ripped it all apart and am in the process of redoing it.
But I did finish it.

Once it is all ready to go I will post about it and the process.

The second thing I did was make more progress on my sister's wedding quilt.
Again, I can't show it in case she looks here....
Well, here's a sneak peek.

Besides that I attended a family wedding this past weekend.

I was able to curl my niece's hair.

Not an easy task....

Probably the most EXCITING thing though happened as kind of a surprise.

A while back I was picked to receive a PIF.

I have been stalking Carla's blog, specifically her progress reports.

Yesterday I saw she had posted about two other PIFs.

I was slightly disappointed mine was not in there...

But I just figured it would be even more of a surprise when it came.

Oh, and it was.

Stuffed into the mailbox (with two magazines for me!!!) was this:

Front

Look at that embroidery.

A-MAZ-ING

Back

I would call it a mug/rug table topper combination of sorts.

It might come to work with me & sit on my desk to keep me happy all day long.

Oh, the colors.... happy colors.

You would have thought she was at my wedding almost three years ago....

dark pink, orange, and blue.

Thank you Carla!
