Beautiful Surprise in the Mail

I'm sure some of you remember that Sherry - Createology won the Half Million Visits Giant Give-A-Way that I had a couple months ago. 

Well, low and behold a couple weeks ago I got rec'd a curious package in the mail...at the hardware store!  Hmmmm whatever could it be - I hadn't ordered anything and it was way too early for anyone to have sent any charms in and I knew we hadn't bought anything from the hardware store.

My son picked up the package for me when he went to have a couple keys made and he brought me back a lovely decorated envie that housed an amazing piece of sewn art!

Sherry had made me an amazing reversible tote bag as a thank you for winning the give-a-way!  Now I have been meaning to take photos and share it with you all but life as it is I haven't had the time.  BUT  Sherry posted it on her blog today!!  So if you'd like to see this beautiful creation head on over there - Sherry's Reversible Tote Back - and let her know how cool it is :)  I personally love it and admire anyone who can sew like that....I have a terrible time sewing fabric (I can sew paper just fine - lol!!!) so it's always impressive when I see much less receive something hand crafted with fabric & thread.

Thank you so much Sherry for sharing your talent with me!!

    Getting good surprises in the mail is always fun!! The tote is very cute and that was nice of her to send you a thank you. I cant sew either so I am always in awe of any sewing projects. lol

    That was so nice of Creatology to make you this beautiful tote! I love to sew but haven't for some time now. Maybe it's time to get back at it. Totes are always handy and this was is really pretty!

    Hi Roni: I am truly happy that you like your tote bag. I posted it as I haven't been super creative of late. Weeds and new plantings have kept me outside most days. I have now gotten my sewing bug back and will be doing some more bags...hopefully to list in my etsy shoppe. Sunshine Summer Smiles dear...
