okay-so you may remember I got this box last week-
and the contents were of the"screaming and jumping up and down can't believe it!!!" variety. Of course, there is judy in all her glory (sadie hasn't met her yet, and may not for a bit) and the apple basket bag. I could go on and on here about seeing hillary's work in person vs. over the internet, but for the sake of brevity, I'll just say that although she takes a mean photo, it really can't do her workmanship justice. Really amazing to own these-thank you thank you!
she also tucked in so many other goodies. Her ability to pick out the exact things I would LOVE was uncanny.
hillary also sent a wee for grammie! here grammie is opening it-and was thrilled, as was pete to get his 'zine (snakepit) which is now stashed in the depths of his "office/guitar room" otherwise I'd show it-
This is from a freaky vintage doll making book she tucked in and I need to make these right away. wow.
my own wee pin cushion, cool postcards, and holly cow, can you believe that cape pattern?? yes, you will be seeing this made up for miss sadie and delia very soon. I love this style hood too, as you can see here. . .
two aprons, lovely patchwork with rick-rack and the degas ballerinas on organdy-
vintage dress for delia and top for sadie! Wow. It almost feels silly trying to express how much this all means to me. A lot. A whole heck of a lot. Hooray for web friends, the internet, and the generosity of such talented people out there. I do strongly believe in web karma and hillary has it in spades. thank you so much, my friend!
