Congratulations, Bramble. Please show us a picture when you are finished making something with them.
Sorry I missed the whole thing. This what I get for not checking the computer in days. :-) But, at least I can see what Bramble makes when she posts a picture. (hint, hint)

This is the first chance I got to check my email today and what a wonderful surprise! This doesn't usually happen to me so I am just delighted! Thank you for offering such an amazing giveaway!
I have emailed you and hopefully will have figured out picture posting with my Christmas gift soon! I can't wait to see the squares and let all of you too! What am I going to do with them? Hmmm...won't know til I see them I suspect! Thanks again Sandy, you are most generous and a sweetie too!
with a happy heart |

Bramble - your quilt squares are on their way. Postage wasn't bad, so not to worry. I would be DELIGHTED to have a little something from you, but please know that it's not necessary or expected. I am happy that the little squares have a good home!
Thanks to all for participating! Who knows what goodies will surface next as I continue my 2007 reorganization plan!
I'd get a face lift - but then it wouldn't match my body! |

Sandy...when you finish your reorganizing, will you come to my house? Seems like the more I do, the bigger the mess I make in trying to purge and clean up my sewing room/office. I promise to take the crazillion Boyd's Bears off the guest bed so there's room for you and you'll have a private bath and whatever else will make you happy. Pretty please?

LOL, Ronna! I have my hands full here, but I'll pencil you in for, maybe, 2008 or 2009? I always cringe if anyone comes over in the midst of a reorganization....I keep explaining that it always looks worse before it looks better!
This morning, I am donating the furniture from an unused bedroom and turning that into my weaving "loom room". I've moved an antique quilt rack up there, found a wonderful faux-old sign that says, BE NICE OR LEAVE (had to have it, made me chuckle) and I want to refinish/repaint an my old highchair to hold some of my raggedy dolls. Once the snowball starts rolling, its hard to stop!

Bramble, let me know if you have received the quilt squares. I mailed them last Monday, by Priority Mail, so if they have not arrived, I should begin checking on the package.
thanks, Sandy

2008 or 09 will probably be just fine, Sandy. If I have this mess cleaned up, I'll likely have another one going. Is the highchair yours as in yours as a baby that you're refinishing? I have a very cool youth chair over at the storage that needs to find a spot in the guest room for a doll or teddy bear. It was so wonderful I had to buy it, of course. May end up at my daughters house, but I'd like it to stay here awhile first. She'll end up with all of it anyway.
I'll pencil you on my calendar for a year or two from now, okay?

Yes, it was my high chair and then I used it for my son when he was little. It might have to wait a while for the refinishing/painting. I have to do it outside in the garage and it's only 11 degrees here this morning!
Have you noticed that as we get older, our children start buying our holiday gifts based on what THEY like....assuming as you said, they will end up with it all anyway? ;-D

I know I bought my mother jewelry I wanted to inherit the last 10 years or so and was open and honest about it. Years back, I always left the tags and receipt with gifts, knowing they would be returned. Decided to start buying her good earrings and she loved them and I love them too! When my sister informed me Mother had told her she could have anything with diamonds, I told her the jewelry I had bought were coming back to me; end of discussion. She got the big flashy diamond cocktail ring she wanted....and that was fine with me.
Yes, my kids do tend to buy me gifts they like, so the tradition continues.
How wonderful to have the family heirloom high chair! I have to buy other peoples heirlooms, which to me is like rescuing them. I do have a hundred year old german porcelain doll that was given to me about 55 years ago by one of mother's friends...she had no children and her brother had only sons. She still has her original clothes and I bought her an antique wicker buggy a couple years ago. |

OH Sandy! I thought I was going to cry today when I received your package of quilt squares. You never said what beautiful fabrics and colors you used! It is so "me" I can't tell you! My husband saw them sitting out and asked "When did you make them?" He thought they looked like something I would make too! When I told him I won them from Sandy at MJF he smiled and said "I guess you have told them what you like too?!!!" with an amused smile on his face. As soon as I can post pics I will share them with all of you. Thank you so very much Sandy...I truly love them! And I will promise to do something really special with them!
with a happy heart |

You're more than welcome, Bramble! It's nice to know that there is someone else out there who likes the same things I do!
