Have a great day Farmgirl Sisters! So much fun to participate & to see photos of everyone's creative ideas. My imagination comes up with much more elaborate ideas than I am actually able to create Lol

My mailart will have to go out first thing Monday morning. . . unexpected events today made me miss the mail run! But alas, it ships on Leap Day and my partner should receive in 2-3 days!! Sooooo exciting! 
I received the cutest wall hanging adorned with buttons, lace, and rosebud embellishments from RoDonna FG#2361 ~ such a beautiful fabric. Hope the photo does it justice. <hugs!>

Diana,
What a wonderful surprise,you just made my day! I absolutely love how you repurposed the valentine's day box. The groundhogs are adorable! I'm so in love with the Punxsy stamp too, It means a lot to this Pennsylvania Gal. Ironically, I love to go Camping! I also see that we share a love of Goats! Thanks again, for the cute surprise! You're so creative!

I opened my mailart this morning from Lola Chella (LOVE that name! It's like a song!) I nearly cried. I have a packed day today and don't have time to take a proper picture of it til tomorrow, but I just had to sit down and thank all of you for the gift of mailart. I have been creatively cramped and down on myself and even thinking maybe this forum isn't for me after all. But the cheerful banner in my mailbox, the country fabrics and the tactile warmth of quilted fabrics completely turned my mood around! Sharing art with you all is like a bonding across our great nation! Thank you for the opportunity to take part in this adventure!

Thank you for sharing your talents with us Sara. I know how you feel; so many of us creative types have up and down days, it just comes with the territory. I am so happy to hear you are finding solace in our little group. Mail Art really does make the world a brighter place

Sara, you are so talented. Please do not ever think you are not good enough. Let me confess that it took me a while to get the idea. In fact my first mail art had to do with April Showers and May flowers. Clueless, I appliqued a tea towel.so I was honored to receive your first mail art and it is truly ART. I still have it out and enjoy stopping to look when I pass by it.

Oh my gosh Aimee, this is the cutest little ground hog I ever did see! Thank you so much. I was absolutely delighted to receive it and the gals at the farm were pretty impressed today as well. You are so talented and I will seriously try to refrain from assigning you as my partner again next month

Aimee I will have to agree with Kristi, that is the cutest ground hog ever. Seeing the fun and crafty projects is so exciting. I have to check in a few times a day just to see what's been posted. All the creations are great!

LolaChella, you deserve your kudos! Thank you so much for the country style-here's where home is-fabric banner! I strung it up on my hen house to show it off, but it will probably live in my screened porch to protect it from rain and blazing sun. I love it!

I got a fantastic package in my mailbox on Monday from Tammy. She sent a really neat Ground Hog Day card and made a knitted cowl for me. It has a pretty pattern and is cream colored, very soft and cozy warm! I wore it to work on Tues and received multiple compliments.
Thank you so much Tammy, I love them both. I really like the way it looks, I have only knitted knit, purl and K2 P2.
Ok Sisters, how do you send a photo from a smart phone so it will load onto here? (I did figure out how to email a photo to myself on a desktop computer, save it and upload it... but there must be an easier way! Plus the desktop is telling me my hard drive is full, so I am afraid if I take that long path, I will crash the computer before I can get it tinkered with, lol)
