More blessings!

I WON!!!!!!

I'm so excited! I called my non-English speaking/reading husband over to the computer and translated May Britt's blog post word for word! He laughed at the way she had posted with all the fan fare and the pictures leading up to the drawing. "She looks like she has a good time writing her blog too." I showed him some of the work May Britt does (not that he can appreciate her stitchery) and he had a good laugh and expressed his sympathies that now she has to send her lovely bag to the other side of the world to someone she's never met (but who greatly appreciates her!)

Tetsu also thinks that I should go buy a lottery ticket! Just a few weeks ago I commented on Nancy's post and I my name was drawn for her wonderful fabrics too! How's that for odds? (I hope you aren't all jealous of my good fortune!)

Thank you so much May Britt! I'm really thrilled and will use and treasure your work of art when it comes!

What a wonderful world of cyber and friends and contacts. Thank you too, my visitors for letting me know and wishing me congratulations! I'm really feeling, doubly, triply blessed!

Congratulations, GF! I'm loving this wonderful new aspect of blogging -- the give-away. I've not won anything yet, but it is fun fun fun . . . .

Of course, we are jealous ! LOL LOL

This is fantastic, Tanya, I'm so happy for you...

Isn't May Britt a sweetheart, too ? I bet this little bag is going to be cherished, there in your corner of the world !

By the way : Tetsu is right, you should buy a lotery ticket.....

Hugs & smiles,
NADINE

O so happy for you, that you won the bag. Congratulations.
I had 2 wins off blogs too, & was so thrilled. My luck must have changed though, because of all the things that happened over the weekend.

In New Zealand we have White Herons, & their Maori name is Kotuku. They are very beautiful & graceful. There are also the grey Herons, but i am not sure if they are native to New Zealand.

I do not have time to finishe the bag today. I am visiting my mother and they are having a summer party at the old peoples home where she is. And I have volunteered to help arrange it. But tomorrow!!!

And you husband is right, BUY A LOTTERY TICKET!!!!
