Happy Mail

Yesterday I received the cutest little book in the mail from BitterBetty.  We got to talking a while ago about my new vintage sewing machine Bluebird.  She has a great little blog full of her crafty adventures and I’ve been reading her for months.  After chatting for a while about my dual needle options she told me she had something to send me.  Well it arrived yesterday and it is just so much fun!

That peachy little book isa White Sewing Machine guide from the 1940’s (I think).  It’s full of little tricks to add details to your clothes (Title is “how to add magic style touches to your sewing”) and I just LOVE it!  It is so awesome, thank you so much Betty!

The little blue journal is from my friend Danielle, it has graph paper inside which is seriously the best thing ever.  I love graph paper and graph paper in a cute little notebook is even better.  Thank you dear friends, they are sure to be put to great use!

My blog-versary and favorite holiday is coming up and I’ve got some wonderful things up my sleeve.  I’ll share more details later, but be warned that a serious party will be involved!

(In other news, my blog host is freaking out and things are looking pretty wonky around here.  I’ll hopefully be able to get it figured out and back to normal soon.  In the meantime, please ignore the weirdness.)
