Parcels and a Finish...

I am very behind with blog posts. I got some parcels that I haven't blogged about yet, and I really need to. I was so excited to get them in the mail too :)

The first one was from Cassie, my new friend in real life and in blogland. I met Cassie at the homeschool conference a few months back and then commented on a giveaway on her blog and I won!!! So exciting!! The prize came nicely wrapped with a sweet note:


Open it up to find this:


It is just a gorgous book! Thank you so much Cassie! I can't wait to make some things from it :) Of course, I need to show some discipline and finish a few things first... hehehehehehehe!

The next parcel was from Alice, with pretty fabric of course. Cute houses for... um... for which project was this again Alice??? I can't remember... but it was for something:



And these coffee fabrics:


I could make something for Cameron from this.. another quilt one day. Thank you Alice :)

Now for my first finished UFO for the month. I started this one.... let me see, it has to be at least 5YEARS ago (!!!!) that I started to make a new cover for this small ironing board:


And now it is all done:


I think it looks much better, don't you? I forgot to take a photo of it in its UFO status.. I will do that with the next project I do, silly me.

Ok, it is bedtime because in 5 and a half hours I need to be up to watch the World Cup Finals - Holland - Spain!

HUP HOLLAND HUP!!!!
