Mama Mia Apron Swap & Birdhouses Cont.

Lookie what I received in the mail yesterday!!!! This wonderful package is from my Secret Pal Dayna. None of us knew who had whose name, just the information. I love my apron, thank you Dayna. She also sent wooden serving spoons, a potholder, what I call a nothing book because it has blank pages to write notes in, a recipe book filled with yummy "brunch" goodies and a recipe for a cool summer drink - "Easy Strawberry Lemonade." I am nearly speechless. I love everything. Thanks again Dayna. And thanks to our hostess, Valerie. Great theme!!!!!
Well, someone lit a fire under me because I went into my sewing studio and got busy. I am now caught up on my Birdhouse BOTM......well, except for stitching them down but that comes in August. It is so much fun picking all the fabrics but I try to clean up and fold my fabrics immediately after cutting from the larger pieces or my sewing area would look like an explosion....hehehehehe!
Sssssssssssshhhhhhhhh! Today is my birthday. Mom said I arrived stubbornly around 4 AM one hot and muggy August morning.............yep, that sounds like something I'd do aright!

  1. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Rhonda!!! I love your birdhouse blocks and your apron swap package, too. But what is THIS idea about folding your leftover fabric and putting it away right after you cut it so the sewing area is kept NEAT? That is such a FOREIGN idea to me. LOL (If you like to fold fabric a lot, you can come here and do mine...as I have PLENTY of it unfolded and not on shelves!!!)
