Zombie surprise!

So the other day, I came home to find a little box on my doorstep.

Inside what did I find?



 A wonderful box of cookies and a zombie head pincushion!

Now, the cookies did the Monster Mash during shipping...but I don't know ANY zombie that has all his limbs!  I ate them first...before Kaela stole the "bodies."


And Ernie is happily sitting out with my other zombies....just waiting for some poor unsuspecting soul to get within lips reach!


Thank you so much Kerry, this little package made my day!!!!

giveaway........

I missed out on Vanessa's Halloween blog hop....so busy this year!  I had intended on using my zombie pincushion as a give away....but am giving it away on my regular blog instead.
If interested, pop by my blog starting tomorrow and leave a comment!

stick me

Here is the little pincushion I sent Susan.   
I went with cute instead of creepy.  I attached a little jar of pins so they would always be handy for those "stick-me" situations!


I added some additional pins and a few other goodies as the tuck ins...
I've not heard from her so I hope she likes it!

Show and tell...and gratitude!


Here is what I sent to Amy, my partner:

A Christmasy apron, a daily devotional, a little sewing kit, a handmade pincushion since she loves them...and 3 crowns.  (I made her 3 ornies because they were small...I used water bottle caps as the base.)

I wrapped each item in Christmasy paper and then wrapped the whole thing up in the red velvety fabric in the first photo.....I love my fabric scraps!

And THIS is what she sent me!

What do we have here....chocolate, botanical post cards, knitting needles, plant markers, a wee garden book and a tissue holder.  Plus, Amy wrapped two of the gifts in Christmas fabric!

Thank you to Amy for my sweet birdie package!  I love it!  

I am so happy to have hosted this swap.....now I'm eagerly awaiting a change in the weather...I'm ready for Halloween!
