Shout Outs

I have to give some “Internet love” to two very special people: my awesome friend Marfa Stewart, who captured my holiday aspirations and realities perfectly in this blog post; and

Ruth over at Permutations in Fiber, who sent me the most amazing blog-giveaway-package ever. To celebrate her 200th blog post, she gave away a package of “wooly goodies,” and I won! Yesterday I stopped at the mailbox and was surprised to find a package; I had completely forgotten about winning, and I couldn’t remember ordering anything. I was shocked when I opened the box; Ruth had packed it full of beautiful wool, fibers, dyed and rusted cheesecloth, silk threads, cocoons, and rods, along with handmade cards, an ATC, and a felted and beaded wool pin!

Here are some pics:

Thank you, Ruth, you definitely made my day!

So, wonderful and faithful blog readers, please share the love with my friends Marfa and Ruth by visiting their blogs and letting them know how much they’re appreciated!
