~I'm So Happy to Be Back~

Hello everyone!

Our company left this morning after a week, I'm so out of it...nothing done that I've wanted to do but finally I can do my thing.LOL I so missed you guys and my morning routine and seeing all of your blogs, I did manage to see a few when I had a few minutes to myself but that didn't happen to often:)

I wanted to post about the first swap I did from Char's blog I had posted some of her things before but this house then was such a mess that I didn't get to these two prims from Christine, didn' t she do such wonderful work on these coasters, truthfully I'm afraid to use them:) they are that pretty!
She also was so kind to make these for me, I'm on the look out for the perfect basket to put these pillows in, the one they are in is to big. Love them Christine:) Stop over at Christine's blog she has a new free cross stitch pattern posted, thanks for that too Christine.

The other day it was so hectic here but the mailman stopped with a package from Beth for the Textile swap from Char's blog and boy did she put a smile on my face amongst the craziness here:)
This is the black doll that she made me, I just love her Beth especially the quilt piece you used for the apron. I have her on my rocking chair in my bedroom:)

Beth was also generous in sending along these four napkins tied with muslin, now I have to find some prim napkin rings:)

It's amazing...not long ago I was wishing for some new table runners so I was so surprised when Beth sent me not one but two:) I have this one on the back of my chair in the livingroom.

Love the blue in this runner...the fresh flowers are from the wedding, Beth also sent along a sweet card!

This scented spice bag (smells so good )is a big favorite of mine that she sent, I have it on the side of the hoosier but when Stush gets my shelf back up above my couch I'm hanging this from one of the pegs:)

Thanks Beth I really enjoyed opening the box of such neat prims, thanks also for being so patient with me:)




Now here are more pictures of Annapolis on are 3rd day there ...look at the wrought iron shutter holders at the bottom of the shutters...so neat! Love the blue and the barn red trim!

This is the same building.

Loved how this building is shaped, it's an inn, I'd love to stay there one day:)

Loved this one with the lace curtains!

The flowers there were beautiful, this hanging basket was hanging by the Maryland Inn, the skinny looking building that is in the picture above the one above this one:)

I don't know about you but I've had one busy summer this year, seems like we haven't had time to boat or just relax.LOL Now this Sunday is my sister's birthday and it will be her 69th, my goodness I remember her as a teenager and loving Elvis:)

I 'd like to say hi to my followers (hate that) so what do I call you Joiners? Anyway, thank you for taking the time to stop by out of your busy day to read my blog I always appreciate you and your comments that you take the time to leave:)
