Something Special in My Mailbox

I had something very special in my mailbox today!  Last week I entered a giveaway on The Selvage Blog for a cute little pincushion...and I won!  Woohoo!  I was not expecting it to arrive already, but found it on my front porch this afternoon.  I was a little upset because it had fallen several feet off the top of my mailbox, but Karen had it packaged up as securely as possible so no problem at all!

The colors are so cheerful - and the little glass dish is so cute!

I love the pinsies she included - isn't it so pretty on my window sill?  What a lovely day for taking a picture of my happy new pincushion!  Would you like to have one of these for your own sewing room?  Karen has lots more in all sorts of beautiful fabrics - check out her pincushion buns here!

Karen is one of my Quiltsy team members on Etsy, but I know her from her blog the best!  If you love selvages, scrappy quilts and just all around neat quilts you need to go take a look at The Selvage Blog.  I have so much enjoyed seeing the wonderful quilts she has featured over the years - we definitely have similar taste!  Another thing Karen has in common with me is that she designs original patterns!  If you like fun, modern and scrappy you will love her patterns!  I would encourage you to make sure and check them out - I'm pretty sure that there will be a Red Zinger in my future (but maybe not RED!!!).

Thanks, Karen!  I love it!
