Pay it Forward


I signed up for a Pay it Forward on Chriz's blog.

(Info taken from her blog)
Here's how it works.

The first five people who comment on this blog post will receive a handmade gift from me.

In return, you must write a blog post explaining Pay It Forward 2011.
Then.... send out a handmade gift to the first 5 visitors who leave a comment (I think it will be kind to also include the person that you entered from – I am doing that).

Take your time...you don't need to send them all today or tomorrow. And most importantly – HAVE FUN!

Mail!

First off Happy Fat Tuesday. I had my paczki this morning. Yummy!!!! So yesterday I got two packages in the mail. First was a book I won from Mandy's Continuing the Love giveaway. Thanks again Mandy!



Then I also got a package from Parsley. Who is such a sweetheart!



She sent some wonderful patterns, some linen (yay i've been wanting to try linen again), some chocolates, and a handstitched bookmark. That is just too cute! Here is a close up of the bookmark.



Thanks again Deena! It was just too sweet of you! Alright i'm off to figure out a handmade item for an Easter swap. Happy stitching!

Progress

This weeks project doesn't even get the justification of having a picture posted. I maybe put in 50 x's of grey on white. It was the 'Naughty' Christmas ornament. And I only worked on it for that hour at the LNS. But I did stitch something for my St. Patrick's day giveaway. But you'll have to wait to see that. Also I think this week i'm just doing whatever. I'm not going to care that i'm suppose to work on my Christmas SAL today and tomorrow and i'm not going to care that i'm getting no where with my crazy 15. I think I just need a nice break from everything. Hopefully it will get me out of the funk and I can then get some more of my 15 done! This week I plan on finishing a baby present for Crystal and to maybe stitch a RAK. Which I forgot to share my last one with you all. Wendy got hers the other day. Click Here to go visit her post and see what I sent/made.

Well i'm off. Happy stitching to you all!
