SURPRISE!! ~ Well for me anyway. I thought after Belle Armoire's issue in September/ October I was done receiving magazine's for the remainder of 2009 that I was featured in but to my surprise I received this in the mail yesterday.
I was so curious to see what it was that was being featured and finally I flipped to this page
It felt so sentimental seeing these tags because these tags were made from my late Grandma's Quilt. It was a good 40 years old atleast and the top layer of the quilt was thinning. No longer able to use it for a quilt I still wanted it around so I cut a million little hearts out of all of the quilt blocks.
It was really hard I remember, sitting on the couch and cutting up a quilt that I knew she so lovingly has stitched together. But it made me happy to know that it would still be enjoyed.I sent 12 of these tags into the Editors at Stampington so they could hand them out at their Editorial meetings just as a Thank you. Like little Hospitality favors. I had just gotten the position in Mops for Hospitality and was so excited to start that I started practicing on them I guess :) So, even though I didn't intend to turn them in for publication here they are. & I couldn't be more thrilled about it :)
Hope you Enjoy!!
