FTLOS - Somebody Loves Me!

Wow. I'm kind of a jerk! I'm sorry! I received the most amazing package last month and I haven't even shared it with you! I guess I've just been super selfish keeping it all to myself. lol. ;) And really, that is exactly what I've been doing. mostly.

Let me explain, usually when I receive an awesome package, or any package, I open it with the excitement of a 4 year old on Christmas morning, look at it, admire it, hug it, stroke it, heehee - not really usually er...  Anyway, and then I put it in a pile so that when I get my camera out to do my little photo shoot of whatever, it's easy to grab and take pictures of it too. Well, this little package of goodness never made it into that pile. It went straight to work! Being used and enjoyed and loved! I never remember to take pictures of it all because it is busy doing other things.

Well, I finally remembered and made a special occasion just for these sweet swap items. Want to see??? :)

The amazing Lisa aka Sixmunchkins made me some FAN.TAS.TIC items:

It's longer on the ends, which is fantastic! I can fold it down to give my machine a little extra protection from our overly dusty apartment. And I love that it's open on the sides so I can still leave my sewing table thing on.


it's it awesome! It matches my mug rug perfectly. And check this out...

I have REALLY been needing one of these! It's perfect!


She also added in a little zipper pouch. Cute!

I have been using it to keep my extra, larger, sewing feet in it. It works great.

I seriously am so amazed at her generosity! And SO grateful! Thank you Lisa!!! :) I hope I didn't offend you by not posting about this sooner. Just know that all of it is being loved and getting lots of use. :) I mean, that's what we all hope for with our swap items, right?! Well Lisa, you are at the top of the line! ;)
