Earlier this week I got an unpleasant surprise from the cat -and today I got a very pleasant surprise in the mail! As it turns out, I won one of the giveaways from Karen at Little Pieces of My Life. See the pretty parcel wrapped in tissue paper? It was tied with the sweetest little pink ribbon you have ever seen!
And when I opened the package, it contained a lovely vintage ivory-colored apron embellished with blue and red stitchery, and a "Quilter on the Move" luggage tag AND a new book! The book is "The Quilter's Kitchen" by Jennifer Chiaverini. Aren't I the luckiest person in Tennessee right now?
Even more than the package, though, I am happy about what it represents. It represents Karen's return to health, and to her life. So, thank you so much, Karen, and congratulations on your recovery! May you continue to gain strength and health with every day that passes!
And, if you're interested in participating in National Tie One On Day, you can read more about it at Karen's blog. She even has a link to an easy apron pattern - it's worth a look!

A surprise in the mail is always such fun! Congratulations on your win, Terri! I'm sure you will enjoy these gifts.
Congrats. Isn't it nice to get something other than bills in the mailbox. Enjoy you winnings. Love the apron.
That was really nice..I hope you enjoy your gifts...and glad Karen is doing better....
What a lovely, fun gift package and best of all is Karen's improvement.
Terri,
I'm glad you liked your book & apron! Isn't that luggage tag a hoot! I have one on my sewing machine case I take to sew-ins.
Thanks for all the kind words
on your blog. I'm just trying not to overdo it now that I feel better.
Did I ever tell you my Grandma grew up in Fayetteville, TN? She always talked about how beautiful the TN mountains are.
Congrats to you Terri. Mail surprises are so fun!
Lucky Lucky you!!!! Have a great evening!
Congratulations Terri! Nothing better than 'Happy Mail'!!! Glad that Karen is feeling better.
Take Care,
Debbie
