A Summer Exchange, WOW!

Terri, at Dixie Samplar, was my summer exchange partner. Today I received a package from her that totally WOWed me. I am not ashamed to say, dear friends, that I cried. I truly did. You'll see why...

Look at this lovely stitching box! It's my favorite colors, pink and green! And look at all the goodies inside it! She included a GC too!

A fabulous stitching box!

Lovely PINK scissors and beaded fob, buttons, needles and pins...

ribbons needed for finishing...

Fabulous fabrics, ric-rac, magazine, pattern and CHOCOLATE (not to mention tissues for this teary eyed gal)

I am still in shock at Terri's gift to me. WHY did I cry? Because I know how much effort she took to make this gift especially for ME.

We stitchers realize the investment of time (and money) to create something special for someone and I truly appreciate what she did for me...and all this after having had wrist surgery!

Terri, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. I will keep my box near me while I stitch thinking of your kindness toward me in our exchange.
