Quaker Ornament Received

I received the most gorgeous Quaker ornament in the mail yesterday from Edgar in the HOE group perpetual ornament exchange!! He stitched a design from Milady's Needle Quaker Smalls. Edgar used Belle Soie Silk and a "mystery" linen. As always Edgars stitching & finishing are perfect! What a wonderful treasure to hang on my tree Edgar!
Thank You so VERY much! I LOVE it!
I also love the post card you sent. I have always wanted to visit San Francisco so now I have my own vintage snap of it! One day I will get there!



I've been busy working on exchanges lately. It is something how a small mistake can totally throw you off!  I felt like crying the other day when I realized I was going to be a little late in mailing out my private exchange to Lisa V. I've never been late in mailing out an exchange  so this felt terrible to me.
 And then I just realized this morning that I should have mailed my Quaker ornament exchange on Friday, so now that is 2 I have screwed up on. Luckily I am just about finished with Lisa V's exchange. I just need my sewing teacher (DH) to fix a few boo boos I made on the finishing and then I can finally mail it out! I already had the Quaker ornament all finished up and  in the envelope and ready to go , so I will pop that in the mail when I send out Lisa's. That one doesn't have far to go.
 There I admitted it!! I screwed up :(  I know things happen but I don't like being late. I guess that is the perfectionist in me!

 All this has caused me to fall behind on my Easter SAL. Hopefully I can catch up on that and finish it in a few days ...at least before Easter Sunday!

I hope you are all having a better week than I am :)

Thanks so very much for stopping by and for your wonderful comments!
I truly appreciate them!
