She doesn't like Frank Lloyd Wright

Let me first say, I do not have permission to use these photos.  I stole them.
This is Val.  Isn't she just the cutest?

I love the name of her blog.

Val has a love for historic homes, vintage hats, and basically anything old which is why I think she likes me.  You do like me don't you, Val?  She doesn't like Frank Lloyd Wright but then, who really does?

A little while ago, Val hosted a giveaway and I was one of the winners.  Dontcha just love that?

I was so excited to see her package in the mailbox this morning.

Here's what was inside:

How cute is this handmade tote bag?  It's perfect for my trips to the library.
Not only that, she filled the bag full of goodies.  I was so surprised to see that she also sent me:

Three yards of gorgeous fabric and two apron patterns.  Now does this girl know me or what???  I love the fabric, the colors are so pretty and I can't wait to create something with it and to try out these patterns.  She also knew that I enjoyed making cards so she also filled my bag with scrapbook paper.  The really good stuff.  Valentines patterns.
What a doll!
Thanks so so very much Val .
I love ya!

Holly -

You are so SWEET! Thank you so much for all of the kind words. And I LOVE your comment about Wright - we must be soul mates! I'm glad that you like everything, and I look forward to seeing a picture, maybe, of what you create with the fabric. Happy apron sewing!

Love,
Val xoxo


P.S. Hi Melynda! I'd love to be friends! :)
