Anyway, AbbyRose rocks my world...thanks hon!

I'm really glad you like everything That was my first sleepsack that I've ever made and I look forward to making MANY more as it was so much fun! Could I ask a favor of you? Is it possible to get a full shot of the sleepsack all by itself and then maybe a shot of the neckline including the applique? I could swear I took pictures before I sent it but I can't find them anywhere on my computer! I'd really appreciate it

I just received the MOST AMAZING package from stitch81. She claimed me for a reading pillow and a tree of life pendant off of my wist. Seriously, one of those would have been amazing but she claimed me for both GASP. AAAANnnnd of course she did a kick ass job at both of them. I am still in shock.

First we have the reading pillow. This thing is constructed SO WELL. Its fully adjustable to hold on to anything I could possibly read.
Here it is in use

And here is a shot to show you the added  pockets.

I think I can actually use this thing to grade papers in bed!


And next we have the most beautiful tree of life pendant I've ever seen, Its a rad combo of cool blues, silver, and purple. I am really envious of folks that can work with wire. I just make a big mess.

It came with a cute drawstring bag, not sure if its homemade but its adorable.

I would have made some action shots of the pendant but I just crawled out of a stream today and am a bit skeeto bit.

Thanks again stitch81, I am still in shock at how rad this package is!

So glad you liked everything!!!  I loved the reading pillow so much that I was sad to see it go... however, what should happen to show up at my door just 2 days later?  A reading pillow I got from my partner in the Easy peasy swap!  So it's all good.  I'm glad you like it.  I was really hoping the straps were right.

The tree of Life pendant was actually the first one I've ever made.  I love the purple wire, but was very concerned as it didn't seem to be stiff enough.  However, once the tree was in place it firmed it up pretty well.  I love the stones too. I'll have to make another one.

SO stitch81, you are totally an enabler. I just bought THREE more books today because I now have the reading pillow. Goodness.

I got my awesomely geeky t-shirt from ehinders.  I am a chemistry teacher so she made a great choice. 
Tried to get photos earlier but something always went wrong.  This is not a great photo, only partly coz it includes me, lol. If you have a better photo ehinders please post it.

The picture shows the back of the t-shirt with an inset of me wearing it showing the front...I love the little beaker. and the sleeves are different to any t-shirt I have and I love them.  It is softer fabric than I am used to in my tshirts.  Everything about it rox.
Thank you ehinders.

So I received two absolutely fantastic packages ages ago.
The first from Sandra22. She made me a fabulous new work bag, some hair slides for my DD and sent me and my DD some fab extras.








My second parcel was from spectrumsparkie and OMG that women is fantastic she totally spoiled us....I'll be your partner any day!!
I got 3 pairs of PJ bottoms, 2 fabulous gorgeous necklaces, some fantastic chicken coasters that are so cool that I think they will end up on my wall. She also sent some hair pretties, pencils and a wonderful Cat Bus bag for my DD, some candy (yummy), chai tea a fab pendant for my DS and a wonderful cd wallet for my OH. I am so Spoilt. 



out of focus sorry. It's a gorgeous necklace, now I just need an excuse to wear it. That's the 3 fab pj bottoms underneath.










sorry it's taken me so long to post these. Been busy and if you have a look on my blog you'll see one of the reasons why

I received my custom waterbottle holder from stitch81 yesterday - and it's fantastic. I thought about how cool it would be to have something to take to Disney and she went above and beyond in the usefulness and all around awesomeness of the pieces she created for me. I'm going to be a bit pic fat here because I have to show off all the useful features she included.

First off, here's the main holder itself. I'm using a large sports bottle water as a prop since it was all I had on me but even that larger size fits just great. (So a more "average" sized bottle will fit great as well.)




In the front is a pocket. It's a great size for something like a cell:



Turn it around on the back and there are two rings with connectors:



Perfect to stick your keys or...something like your own custom, matching pouch:



That then opens up to give you card slots. All the better to carry your park tickets, cards, id, etc.



And of course, inside the pouch is room for your camera and other goodies:



This is just great! I really love it. stitch81, you made one hell of a carrier for me so thank you! I will greatly enjoy using it when I'm out at the parks!
