THEY ARE IN THE MAIL----

I did it --got all 7 packages mailed today---and I had alot of fun with your answers--
OH--let me "jump" back to the site to see if there have been new ones and then I will tell you the "winner"!!!!!
I am back--6 of you gave me 'guess's'--thank you--
Now the winner is-----

 **************Anne-Lise--of Norway ----with a guess of $43.50
******the actual cost was $44.29---way to go Anne-Lise!!!!
What is that you asked??????
What is Anne-Lise's prize?????
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh-----I haven't gotten that far in my "planning" yet--so??????

After the Post Office I went to the bank to get quarters for the month for laundry--and that is where I found these beautiful flowers--
and this is right across the street from the 'bank'--so you know what happened don't you????  Those "feet" of mine have a mind of their own some days!!!!!
Here is one pile of goodies I got there---I have not done the x-blocks yet--and today the ruler and the book were on sale for 50% off--soooo---then I have liked the pattern with the white pitcher and sunflowers for a long time and it was 50% off as was the other two patterns!!!!
I needed a couple colors of quilting thread and I wanted to make sure I had extra marking pencils for quilting and I have had my "eye" on this Christmas pattern for a couple weeks now!!!!

Baa  Baa!!!!
Was gonna send for wool felt--but did find the colors there that I needed for my first fall projects---
These two pieces of fabric were in the buy one get one--the rose one is for Little sister--the other one is for a project on the Christmas challenge--and YES--under the fabric is 4 rolls of Christmas wrapping paper----from last year--got them today for $1.00 a row--you can't bet that?????
Little sister came on home ==she wasn't feeling real great today--but I had to walk on the Health food store for a couple things--and I took these pictures for you on the way home---
this is a bed and breakfast --just down the street from there--and I have always loved the style of this home--and it looks 4th of July-ie--
One one of the side streets to come back here I spotted this mail box---and this is just how I took the picture from the street--now I like the mail box and the picture!!!!


OK--It's now July--copied off some of the new issues of the BOM's already and did get my Schnibbles for July ordered----(ok--girls--I have 5 patterns I have collected---and do you think it would be one of them--NOPE!!!!)  OH well--it gives me a good excuse to go "hunting" on the internet--and then I can get into trouble ordering other things!!!
Yep--I did---wait and see!!!!



Well--it is time for me to get off this machine for today---need to accomplish something today besides spending money!!!!
Hugs, Di

Hee hee--sounds like you had a very good day! I like the mailbox too-haven't found one for here yet. L,A-

You've had a busy day. I love that mailbox and photo as well. It looks like a black and white photo which I think is much nicer than color photos.

Seems like postage must be about the same as here, then :) The postbox is really cute. And the bed & breakfast looks cosy. Have a lovely day, Di.

I would love to be able to walk around town to do my shopping. It's so relaxing and I love to look at houses and the neighborhood. I love that close hometown look/feeling.

Wow, I was WAY over on my guess...good! I made that Christmas stitchery last year for my Dad. It turned out so nicely, I must say. That was a joy to make!
