My Xmas In July Gift Arrived By Mail Today !

I feel really spoilt today .
I received my Xmas in July gift from my SSSS
(Simple Saving Secret Santa) today,  I feel incredibly spoilt today. Well I can honestly say you know more about what I would love then my own family and friends. This gift is just so me, I feel really special today, if you haven't gathered, you have brighten my day up big time. Still suffering with my hormones so receiving this beautiful gift today has really lifted my spirits, so a big big thank you . The cup is just so sweet and I'm going to have a cup of the lovely nettle tea later. I've had a quick look through the magazines and spotted a bag that gave me an idea, that I think I'll make using my old jeans so another recycled project coming up soon. The card is just so beautiful I love and adore roses I keep saying I'd love to plant a rose garden here, but I think the possums would just have a feast, but I still keep saying I will, so hopefully soon I will. Every time we go to Kev's mum's house to visit I always smell all her roses.Gosh if I had my own rose garden (I often fantasize about having my own secret garden ) I'd always be smelling the roses and I could make my own rose water....The thoughts make me feel all warm and fuzzy. I just edited my post as I thought it was Barb who sent me the gift, she also has a great blog  http://barbsbackyard.blogspot.com.au
After talking to Barb today I found out it was her lovely daughter Tiffany who sent me the gift so a big,big thank you Tiffany I absolutely loved the gift.


Also today I received a lovely letter from my lovely Heart sister Deb and some beautiful fabric as always, she always sends me a fat quarter of fabric. Here is a photo of today's fat quarter it's just so lovely It's too beautiful to use I will admire it for a while then I'll add it to my collection and one day I will use it to make something lovely perhaps another quilt, anything with roses really warms my heart ...So a big thank you to you Deb for being my heart sister....Deb also has a great blog  http://www.tryhardfrugalista.com/

  2. Hi Sherrie, that's does sound like a great gift but...not from me. I didn't do the Christmas in July thing at all so someone else must know a bit about you too...

    Barb.
