Christmas in April

My package from the Spring Fling Swap arrived this weekend. It was so very exciting to get my package and a very funny story to accompany it arriving. Saturday my husband and I were completely exhausted (Isaiah's teething), so while Isaiah decided to take a 3 1/2 hr (yay!) nap, we decided we'd nap too. Well, towards the end of the nap, a large knock at the doors wakes us up. My husband, who is always delirious when he first wakes up, jumps out of bed and is running around the room trying to find a shirt to put on. I finally said, "John, just open the dresser." So, eventually he makes it downstairs, only to find my swap package at the door. He came upstairs and just threw it on the bed, saying "I knew I shouldn't have gotten up, who'd be knocking at our door in the middle of the day!?" Hahah. He was less than pleased about his nap being disturbed.

Anyway, my partner Bee did a wonderful job. I'm not sure my pictures are going to do any justice as we have had 2 straight days of gloomy, rainy weather.

Very cool wrapping of the packages, I'll save that for later crafting.

This is what each letter of the package represented

Close up of the pincushion, which believe it or not, is the first actual pincushion I own. I have a magnetic one, but not a real one.
She cleverly used the "I" for Isaiah and sent him a chick and a bunny. He has since hid the chick on me, and this was the best picture I could get of him holding the bunny.

Bee thrifted this nest and the birds as well as the base to the pincushion. She made the pincushion , the drawstring bag, and the pink bunny. She Thanks so much Bee. I love them all!


I'm sending my package out today, so hopefully she gets it quickly so I can post what I sent!
