A Yum and a Fun

Yesterday I was upstaurs loading a quilt into the quilt machine when Kalissa yelled from downstairs, “Mom…Ila did it again.  There’s a package here from her.”  I ran down the steps to check it out.  Ila is one of my readers who is always doing sweet things for me and for my family.  We all love it.  Today she sent chocolates.

I love chocolates….  I tried a few of these and I even shared.  So far, the white ones with the drizzled frosting across the top are all mine.  I called those and I’m not sharing those….

She also sent some scraps which I quickly sorted.  My sewing room is clean and I am making an effort to keep it that way.  There were some four patch blocks that are going to be turned into a doll quilt for the Moline guild doll quilt project.

Ila even sent a toy for Ruby and she LOVES it.

Ila apologized saying it was ugly…but honestly, it’s the kind of toy that’s so ugly it’s cute and Ruby doesn’t seem to mind at all.  It kind of looks like a Grinch crossed with a snake wearing a Santa  hat  :)

She loves squeaker toys and this one has three squeakers! Thanks Ila…I have been on a roll of having a fabulous week and this little surprise was really appreciated by all of us including Ruby!
