Laurie of
Old School Acres had a drawing on her birthday, and this is the box of surprises that *she* sent to *me*. How amazing is all that stuff?!
I LOVE the gigantic stuffed acorn. All the vintage jewelry is gorgeous, especially the bejeweled blue birds. The background is vintage linens, and I love the embroidered peacock on the right one. I have a vague idea about crocheting something onto existing clothes, and that novelty trim would come in handy for starting things off (it's got a picot border on one edge of the bias tape).
If you haven't already seen her blog, totally take a look. She's talented, creative, and funny as all get out. She's had me singing
sweater pig instead of "spider pig" for weeks now.
Thanks, Laurie!
