What a week - the big tidy-up is on and everyone thinks I have gone crazy! I guess we all get like that at times - nothing is neat enough! Lucky I have my little slave driver to help me along - DD, Danielle moves likes greased lightning and I have to try to keep up with her!
We were sitting down having a cuppa when the mailman arrived - look at this wonderful surprise that came in the Pincushion Swap - it was sent by Karrin and I am really so thrilled and happy, thank you, Karrin♥.jpg)
Lots of gorgeous pink fabrics, a Quick Unpick and such a gorgeous girly pincushion - how very thoughtful! I must finish off my swap today and get it posted!

Another little surprise above - from Stephanie - a gorgeous little fabric pack and some new pins for my new pincushion - will look cute, won't it? Thank you so much Stephanie and you really shouldn't have - though I must admit I love surprises! This has been a week for them and I just love that feeling!.jpg)
Shopping last week at Ikea with a big tidy-up in mind, I bought this great set of little drawers - they are metal, but still look nice and hopefully will eliminate that 'big black hole' that seems to be with me constantly wherever I live - I am forever putting things in a really safe place and then forget where that place is - a few more days of tidying and I am sure I will fill it up! I wish I could find a fabric sorter out there - one that could group everything just where I want it - never mind, I'll get there, I guess!♥
Another weekend nearly upon us - all you lucky girls at the Sydney Show will be having a wonderful time - make sure you visit www.quiltersguildnsw.com/quiltshow go through all the categories - really wonderful!

Hey Lurline! Lucky you to get such yummy goodies in your mailbox - only bills in mine this week! :0) Love that sheep card Stephanie sent you - so cute! Hope your clean up continues on schedule and that it unclutters your space so you can create more - I'm managing to keep my sewing room pretty tidy ... so far ... after my big clean up - yay me! Tee! Hee! Hee! Have a great weekend - Bear Hugs! KRIS
Lovely goodies in your mailbox this week. The cabinet from IKEA is cool. I love shopping at IKEA. It's too bad the closest one is two hours away from me.
What lovely surprises! I made myself that very same hat pincushion--but in pink!
A good mail day! That is a darling pincushion. Enjoy your Snippets. Love the file cabinet. If I had the space I'd have one to help get and keep me more organized.
There must be something in the air Lurline - I feel so much better after my tidy up
A wonderful pincushion and goodies you've received there Lurline! Good for you! 8-)
Nice cabinet for your cleanup! 8-)
Happy stitchings!
Hi Lurline--what pretty things you got in the mail--I made myself one of those hat pincushions a while back and I put some of each of the different straight pins in use for projects and it sits by my rocker, so I always have the correct pins for the right job!!!! And I have a little message for you from Lady Perkins--she wants you to visit and to see her "home"--Love, Di
I love to have it all tidy and neat. Love your goodies in the mail!

I could do with a couple of sets of those drawers, very nice.
So You have one of those Big Black Holes Too Lurline !!! That great set of Drawers would have galvanised me into action also... have always wanted to visit Ikea... One Day !
