It's A.....
Before I show you all the goodies that I got from Carrie in the Christmas Stocking Swap, I thought that I would share the news that some of you have been waiting for........
So what will I be having in April 2008? Think snips & snails......
Once we get moved into the new house we'll be able to start the whole process of decorating the nursery in blue!
I also received my stocking yesterday! Not only did Carrie make me a FANTASTIC Wonder Woman boot (I just love it!), but she also made an adorable elf stocking for Taylor - these are going to look great in the new house! Of course, there was more than just stockings in my box - there were lots of goodies, too! Inside - a wonderful Advent Calender inspired by All Sorts' tutorial - and (my favorite) Dove chocolates to stuff inside, a cute clutch and earrings that look like gifts (they're hard to see in the photo), fabric that matches my new Amy Butler bag (so I can make some matching accessories) and Christmas scissors!
For Taylor, Carrie made a cute bracelet and gift box earrings, holiday pencils, ponytail holders, and the best presents of all - two FANTASTIC American Girl outfits! Taylor loved them so much she immediately dressed up her doll and that you can make her outfits anytime!
Thank you so much Carrie! We love our packages so much!

Your little boy is Great News!
And that is a wonderful bunch of swap gifts you received. It reminded me to change my American Girl doll from a summery dress to something warmer.

Congratulations!!! That is so exciting. And, IMO, boys are much easier to sew for than girls and a LOT less picky :) .
