We went up to Ouray, Colorado 

- where we spend just a week 

during summer.

I didn't work on any of my needlework

projects while I was there period.

So now I'm all busy with catching up

with what I missed!!

It's such a nice feeling

to find out about I still seem to

 remember how to sew :O

BTW, Taryn at Repro Quilt Lover had

a lovely books giveaway as she found

some duplicate copies on her book shelf.

And guess who won one of them?

ME!!

There are quite few quilts I like :)

Thank you Taryn for this book!

I'm fully inspired and ready to go :O

And speaking of a gift, 

guess what was awaiting for me

after our wonderful vacation?

This gorgeous crochet bag

is made by my local friend R!

She specially made this one 

for my B-Day next week :D

She and her family also spent 

their time with us in Ouray,

but didn't tell me a thing about

what she was planning.

Before getting a heart attack,

I sent her a thank you note and

told her how I'm impressed her work

as usual!! (This isn't my first time

seeing her fine work in person.)

Then she replied and said

there may be another surprise

in the bag.

Another surprise?

What about it?

Did I miss anything?

Yes, there was a little drawstring bag

sitting at the bottom of the bag

 (How did I miss such treasure?) and

inside of that, I found a Pandora's charm

which looks like a pretty rose :)))

She knew I've been collecting them

and looks like she quietly picked one

for my B-Day.

How sweet of her!

I feel so spoiled all about this.

Thank you so much R!!

More fun will follow...
