Surprise in the Mail!

Surprise in the Mail!
I got a package from my sister-in-law Nadia, all the way from Sicily. She is amazing and I am so thankful to have two talented sister-in-laws. You can check out Nadia's new blog cucitoefantasia.
I will finish the bags with a charm and something else, not sure yet, but they will be for sale at "Le Chateau de Fleurs" Market Place June 18th and 19th.
Grazie Mille Nadia



Ciao Rita

  7. Hi Rita

    I just went and caught up on your older posts I've managed to miss. I don't know why I have so trouble lately to read all the blogs I like. Well, that's probably the problem - there are just too many that I like reading. I need a job that involves just reading blogs! Anyway, all your stuff looks great! One of these days I hope to make it up to the Urban Barn.

    I leave Thursday morning for St. Simon's Island and my 'babysitting' job for Kim. I'll be gone for 10 days, which is the longest trip I will have had in about 10 years. I'll be sure to take lots of pictures, as everything is just so different there.

    Keep up the good work!

    Hugs,
    Tamerie
