Mail Call Monday - Scraps from the Glade {and More}


Welcome to another edition of Mail Call Monday!!  A couple of weeks ago, I got a text from a friend.  She included this photo:


Last week, that friend, Libby @ Life on the Hill, mailed me a box of scraps:


They were packed in pretty tight:


I was thrilled to see there were RED scraps for this month's RSC:



Thank you, Libby!!  I SEW appreciate these scraps from your sewing room.  I've already put two of the RED fabrics to work!  This beautiful floral one has been used up, with only 2 strings remaining:



MORE scraps made their way into the studio...

I also found these two bags of scraps from Ella and Candy when I was unloading my quilting things after this month's Sew/Craft Friends-zy event:


There are some fun RED prints in Candy's bag:


Sorry for the delay in posting, ladies.  I really do appreciate the steady stream of scraps you supply!  It appears that these bits and pieces have ridden around in my car for a month.  Oops!!  They got buried under the Junior Quilter's "car blanket" after our mid-April meeting at Maggie's and I didn't see them sitting there waiting to be taken inside for sorting.  :o((

The biggest surprise...

This arrived from Andee @ The Modern Diary the other day:


Andee went a little crazy with the making of her Humble Quilts 2021 Quilt Swap project.  After making the fourth iteration of her design, she decided to host a giveaway and I was the lucky winner!!  (Thank you, Andee!!)

I present the latest addition to my gallery wire:


Let's get a little closer so you can see all the sweet prints Andee included:


My favorite block (check out the original quilting plan) is shown below:


This shot shows Andee's mini with a couple of its new friends:



It looks perfectly at home on my gallery wire, Andee.  Thank you, again!  Your "reject" from the Humble Quilts 2021 Quilt Swap will always have a home here in my studio.

Until next time...
Feeling SEW lucky!!!

  5. What wonderful mail! When I first looked at your prize quilt I saw an O, H, and I. Maybe because I'm from Ohio?
