I received my package from RhymeswOrange yesterday. My boyfriend was expecting some software, so when 2 packages came he just assumed they were both his software packages without checking who it was addressed to. So he opens my package and says "well that's an interesting way to pack a package..." then he starts to pull things out and goes "What the hell?" I came over to see what was wrong and then realized he had my package! He feels bad about ruining my surprise, but I think it's kinda funny. Anyway, on to the package!

My small item was a lap blanket! It blows me away that RhymeswOrange was able to figure out I loved cats without me even saying anything! Anyway, as soon as I spread out the blanket to take a picture, my cat hops on it! How appropriate that it says "What cat hair?" haha!


Here is a closeup of the awesome cat applique. She seriously has amazing applique skills!:


Here is the fiber, an etsy find called "Jellybeans". It's 4oz of Romney wool. I absolutely love the colors and I almost want to eat it! I can't wait to spin it!


She also included this neat shapeable vase. It's a small piece of plastic and you fill it with warm water to shape it into a vase. Can't wait to try this out too!


Thanks so much for an awesome package!

Yay! I'm so glad you like your package.  I took a chance on your tastes and I was a bit worried you might not like it....you know...swap anxiety...

No, you got everything exactly right.

I love that kitty on top of the lap blanket (real and appliqued, haha).
