AWESOME squishy mail - potholders - #1233 & #1234 -

The other day I received some AWESOME squishy mail!! - ;))

The notebook cover that I ordered from Gene Black came -
And it even included a notebook - WOW - I didn't expect that! -

He even added a "Gene Black Creations" label -

Because it is truly a one-of-a-kind original -

And the photos do NOT do it justice -

The hand-woven fabric that he included is SO soft -

And the little turquoise tufts are so nice and FUZZY.

I have to pet it for a while before I actually use it - ;))

He's making some more for a Holiday Faire - so if you want one - check out his blog and place your order NOW - before he sells them all. I've already placed my order for some more - ;))

POTHOLDERS -

On the quilting front -

I finished up the Rooster Potholders - but I posted about them before - so I thought that I would show you the AWESOME squishy mail first -

A close-up of one -

And the back of the loop - nothing fancy - just a big "X" at the joining -

It forms a "natural" loop from the front - ;))

#1233 -

This is Post #1233 -

Which automatically makes my NEXT post #1234 -

As most of you already know - I am a math geek - and LOVE numbers -

And since I totally missed my landmark Post #1200 -

I thought I would celebrate Post #1-2-3-4 instead - ;))

And - I was going to offer FREE SHIPPING on the first FOUR orders -

For my LEFT-EZE Rule ordered that day -

But as I thought about the different time zones - and the recent switch from Daylight Savings Time - and when I should actually post the post -

It got a little complicated -

It doesn't seem fair to base the FREE SHIPPING on the time the order was placed -

So -

ALL of the names on the orders placed between NOW - Thursday (11/9/17) 6:00PM - PST and Sunday (11/12/17) NOON - PST - will be put in a "hat" -

And I will draw out FOUR names on Sunday afternoon -

Those FOUR will get FREE SHIPPING - ;))

Check the link for info on how to place your order - HERE -

To get your name in the "hat" -

And Good Luck!! - ;))

I can't believe that my next post will be #1234 - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

Enjoying the process - and #1232 -

No, I'm not done with the Rooster Potholders just yet -

But I don't care -

I enjoy the process -

And stitching at a leisurely pace -

So they will take as long as they take - ;))

Of the five - one is completely done -

Two are almost done - they need the end of the loop stitched down -

The last two have the binding applied to the back - they need to have the binding folded to the front and stitched down - along with the loop -

So if I don't get them done tonight after dinner -

There is always tomorrow - ;))

By the way - according to Blogger this is my 1232nd post -

I completely missed the landmark 1200th post -

Like 31 posts ago - LOL -

So the math geek in me says "Why not celebrate Post #1-2-3-4 instead ?" -

That will be coming up in a couple days - ;))

How to celebrate? -

I thought I would offer Free Shipping on the first four LEFT-Eze Rule ordered that day -

That's order #1 - #2 - #3- and #4 - placed that day -

What do you think? - ;))

For those of you who don't know already - my super-duper handy-dandy LEFT-Eze Rule is designed to be used by a LEFT-Handed quilter to cut HST and QST - LEFT-Handed - ;))

Christmas IS coming - so treat yourself - it is the perfect gift for yourself or your LEFT-Handed quilter friends and family - ;))

You KNOW you want one - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
