In the box.....

... that's the post box I'm talking about .....

For some time I have been reading Jodie's blog Ric-Rac.... I really enjoy her sense of humour and she makes the most fun and unique softies....

I was soooooooo lucky to win a recent give-away that she had and my prize had it's cute cheeky little snout in my mail box when I came home.....


doesn't he just make you want to squeal?? 

and he came with a pattern.... Little Red.... perfect for Grandiegirl gifties I think... oh, and I would so love a matching pinnie with mushrooms on ..... 


thanks Jodie.....  I get a real kick out of owning a Jodie original!  ooohhh... squeal!!!

I had another reason to squeal when I saw my Fathers Day mini quilt which was made by none other than the wonderful Shez from Enjoying Life ..


isn't this just perfect... I love the detail.  

Shez has done this with applique and machine and hand stitching and now I think I need a dress made from fabric with writing all over it  

(maybe I can put mushrooms on the hem of that)


and look at that teddy dangling just like they do in little people's hands.... and the cherry in the cocktail - martini's anyone?

Thanks Shez - I love it to bits and it looks just perfect in my hanger... you sure know how to share how to Enjoy Life......

Righto, Gotto Go.......... squeeeeeeeaaaaalllllll
