Mail Call....

Back in August/September Dot from Rantala Rags held a contest. The contest was to make a comment with a guess when her grandchild was due, the date, time, and the sex. Closest guess would receive a prize, and it were me!!! (check her September 19th post - I tried to link you there, but not possible) What a neat contest hey? I will have to remember that when I have a grandchild on the way! Not too soon I hope! 8-)

My friend Kh from Quilter Going Bananas had also taken part in this contest, and she had the next closest guess!!! Funny thing... At least I thought so... 8-)

So the much anticipated package came today! Not often that I get packaged mail...mostly just bills...thus the anticipation! 8-) Dot had mentioned that she had mailed it last Wednesday, so it only took a week to get here! 8-) Not like the recipient of my giveaway... It will take much longer for her to receive her package... 8-(

Look at the wonderful goodies! A lovely card, a cat bookmark, a neat pattern that is good for the use of Jelly Rolls, a pair of cook Halloween socks, AND a Fall Table Runner!!! An awesome gift to have received! Thank you so much Dot! 8-)

And here you see the Fall Table Topper on my dining table already... needs a bit of attention from my iron due to it's cramped bit of traveling... Not a problem! 8-)


And finally, a photo of little Miss Ruby... FFF (funny furry face) Ruby is such a little sweetheart... 8-)

Well, I think I should make my way into the sewing room today... It's time I do more quilty posting again.... Can you tell I have been taking another break? 8-)

PS: In case you are interested, here is a Knitting Tutorial, and info for a higher work/extension table. Don't know if I would try this myself, but maybe you would?
I also found another new blogger at the blog All Things Nice. Pop on over for a welcome and look-see yourself.
And something I found really interesting is a Birdie Mobile that Karissa at Kitty Kitty Crafts made, and found the pattern too! I am thinking to make one...eventually... 8-)
