Diana,
I cannot say thank you enough. Girls, I just opened the most wonderful raok. I got the cutest little bear key chain that is already hanging with my keys and two wonderful knitting sweater magazines. But the thing that brought tears to my eyes was the incredibly adorable cross stitched teddy bear sampler. It is already hanging in my craft room. Diana, thank you from the bottom of my heart and beyond, you have not only made my day, but my whole month and beyond. Everytime I look at the sampler, I will think of you and your kindness. Thanks again, take care hugs

Diana(dianaw1123), I want to thank you for the lovely RAOK you sent to me. I know I received it last week, and apologize for not posting until now. It's been a rough few weeks, but your package sure brightened my day! I have the initialed note pad right at my computer. It's so hard for me to find initialed note pads, where did you get it from?! And, the hot pad is so sweet, did you make it? My oldest daughter wants to steal it from me, she loves the colors! Thank you so much for thinking of me! A great big hug goes out to you!

My dear Farmgirl Sister, CJ, has sent me the sweetest RAOK and I have a HUGE smile on my face!! I am in awe at everyone's sincere kindness!! CJ, I absolutely love the apple coasters, notecards, journal and darling fabric with the apple motif on it!! It looks like a cover for the top of a canning jar! At least that's what I put it on and it looks too adorable!! I send heartfelt thanks for your kindness and everytime I use these, I'll think of you!!! Hugs and Smiles, Lin

sheepmom2--- I VERY nearly pissed myself with excitement when I opened the box of patterns. I wanted to get a wet plate done of me and my daughter and the one dress from 1857 was exactly what I was thinking. The early victorian wrapper is an enduring thought, have to get the bump first. I thought it would be lovely to have something similar for the hospital stay for the next baby. the 1881 gown might come to light also for my want of a steampunk dress
THANK YOU!!!!

Emily I am so glad you liked the patterns. I knew they fit into the period that is your interest. Would love to see pics of what you make with them. I have sewed with this historical pattern line before and the detailing is very accurate. Doing historical clothing with all the accurate details has always been so much fun so I knew that it would be the perfect fit for you.
Blessings, Sheri

I came home last night to a bad storm and the mail lady had left a package inside the storm door..What a beautiful thing to open. Thank you Emily for the peacock feathers. I have 1 male and 1 female but no feathers. He is just now 3 so almost fully feathered but has not lost any yet. My friend does flower arrangements so she is making me something with the feathers in it.. They are just beautiful! THank you so much!!

Thank you sooooooo much for my RAOK this week, I was at a conference and havent had time to send a thanks yet. I got a very cute Chocolate Lovers Cookbook, might have to make something this weekend before I go back on the diet :). A sweet card and a book mark and pen from her church ministry. I needed a book mark for my knitting bag and this is perfect. A precious little country church on it!!!
Thank you so much for thinking of me.

Thank you so so so much Melanie (47601)for the wonderful surprise! I was having "one of those days" that was about to turn into "one of those nights". Then I got this great little package in my mailbox! I have never read Southern Living before, I can't wait! The mousepad notepad is on my computer desk right now, and the tea... I never tried "calm" before. It was a little warm out, but I couldn't wait to try it... so I iced it. DELICIOUS! Thank you for really turning my day around. Your kindess will never be forgotten! :) Have a wonderful weekend!
