My super top secret partner was Di of Random Thoughts...Do or "Di"....and she rocks. If you have not been to visit her blog before, hop on over there! She makes the most gorgeous quilts and always gives a nice glimpse into what she's got cooking or what is happening with her family. Get on over there and give it a read :)
Want to see my most beautiful pouch? Well it came in a great big box....
and when I opened it there was a little card peeking out at me....
....it was a sassy one! Can you read it? "Always wear a thong. It's the perfect excuse for never carrying cash." Genius!
Di even played Easter bunny and sent a pile of deliriousness! It's nearly all gone already! Who ever thought of dipping marshmallow peeps in chocolate deserves a promotion.
Inside there was a little package wrapped in gorgeous ribbon holding the nicest little skein of twine! I can't wait to use it to wrap a little gift!
What's inside? Scraps!!!! Yum yum yum!!!! I love Malka Dubrawsky's A Stitch In Color line, but it never made its way to Ireland....until now! I can not wait to start sewing with these pieces of gorgeousness.
But really, you want to see the pouch, don't you. Look! Look at this!
Squeeee! I am so in love. I love this Melody Miller print. I love the purple zip with the charm. I love the piecing down the sides. I love its size and that it's boxy and can stand on its own. Love it, love it, love it. The back is also Melody Miller Ruby Star Rising.
Inside there are four of the cutest little pockets I've ever seen! I stuffed them with fabric, of course :)
Di, thank you. Thank you so very much for your thoughtfulness in designing this pouch, the care you put into stitching it and the energy you put into making the delivery just so much fun. Thank you, Di!
