Muria- I realize that I probably should've taken a picture of everything together. I'll try to do that when I have a chance.

I received from Belladune today!!  She was a total sweetheart and claimed me even though she isn't an October Babe.  How awesome is that?  .

She sent me, beautiful roving for my needle felting.    



A lovely felted bowl which she said was her best!  You must teach me your ways!  Was this wet felted?  I LOVE it!


And a darling bracelet which I absolutely adore!  I can't wear metal, so I rarely wear jewelry but I will totally rock this piece.  It is uniquely classy and it pays homage to my love of fiber.  Great colors too. 



Thank You so much Belladune!

I received an amazing package from InShambles and it came right on my birthday!  I absolutely love everything!



She figured out that I love birds and read that I wanted a Domokun cell phone holder so she made me this awesome bag of super soft corduroy with a painted bird on front and the CUTEST little Domokun cellphone cozy lined in fleece with a carabiner to keep it safely in my purse!



And she made me a cowl and mittens from a recycled cashmere sweater that are just BEAUTIFUL!  The color is much prettier in real life, my camera is new and confusing to me.  They are so soft and fit perfectly.

Thank you so much InShambles, you did an amazing job in what you made and making things for me that were perfect for me!!!!

I am so glad you've received and that you like everything Kelly! I had the hardest time with the mittens and cowl because I am allergic to cashmere - actually any animal fibers - and was itching like crazy! LOL

Oooooarghghhah!  I had completely finished my package for my partner and was ready to send it out when someone knocked over the bleach cleaner which was inexplicably sitting in my craft room and RUINED it!  I'll still send by the end of the week, but it's not going to be the same as I can't re-create what I made that quickly   I'm so  and  .  It was either a kid or a cat but they are both in the dog house!
