The first day of March
More books ! 1973 childrens , and 1963 Enid Blyton .
1920`s sheet music book , and a medical nursing book .
A childrens picture dictionary , with pages like these
And my favourite find -
Vintage linens and lace , and a vibrant ball of
wool fibres . I was immediately drawn to the colours,
which i think we all need something to brighten
the day up with , and trying to get out my colour
comfort zone !!
So it was a fruitful time for my thrift buys .
Sometimes , i do not see anything , and feel
i have missed out on something . Then next
you find things that bring joy to your heart .
Speaking of which ..
Here`s a photo - for my sweet friend Rhonda .
I know she`s absolutely mad on the British Robin .
Another one to add to your stash !!
Doesn`t he look beautiful - all soft
and fluffy ! ?? She has just done a post
herself on her love of them , so check out
all her photo`s !
And finally - I was gifted with yet another
award - From another dearest friend of mine
Sherry . If i had received it before you .
I would have no hesitation in passing it on
to you . It made me smile , that she loves me that
much . When you look at the photo , you cannot
measure love in the length of the arms out stretched .
A simple image like that , can say it all .
Love is in many forms , actions , unspoken words ,
objects , nature . The list is long ..
It gives me great pleasure in passing this award
on to you .....
Rhonda !!
You deserve it !
You make me laugh , brighten up my day .
Send me unexpected gifts , and you are just
what i call a true friend of mine ...
Without having this blog , i would not have met you ,
along with so many others . It has brought me a
whole new world of new friends . Of which i am
so thankfull for ...
Wishing you a happy weekend !!

That just brought a tear to my eye Caz. Thank you so much for your kind words, and I hope that you know I feel the same way. I am blessed to have you and really do consider you a dear friend. I know our paths will cross one day.
I LOVE that puffy robin. I just want to pick it up and squeeze it. I need a huge stuffed robin, as in a stuffed animal, not a stuffed real robin, gross. A huge one that would fill my lap and cuddle with me. That would be so wonderful!
By the way, did you ever get your wall paper? If not I will just have to pass along some more for you!
Have a great weekend and thank you so much!

Echo & The Bunnymen are awesome!
What a pretty robin! And plump! I haven't been to thrift stores or antique stores in forever. I should save up and plan a trip. What great goodies you found! I love the quilt top too. To think someone worked on that and then it got donated somewhere and was never finished. I love finding things like that and finishing them or giving them a home.
Hi Carolyn!
I received your package on Friday! THANK YOU!! It was just filled with perfect lovelies! I'll post about it tomorrow, (if fate allows) Love your finds.. isn't it just the best feeling when you find something wonderful? The robin is cutie!
Hope your weekend was fabulous!
Hugs,
Abbie
Fabulous finds Carolyn!!! I love the bright fibres -- just what I need to see every day -- I'm so tired of drab -- longing, longing, longing for the colours of springtime!!
It's amazing isn't it? this little girl has stretched her arms across the atlantic from me to you and now her arms are extending back over the altantic to Rhonda...now THAT is love!! :)
LOVE the quilt, Carolyn...lovely colors! The robin is quite a cutie...don't know if I've ever seen one like it.
This birdie "looks" how I "feel" - hence, the diet!
I was scrolling down through the posting, thinking I'd comment on the quilt-top which is lovely, but then I saw what you said in closing. I love how you say Rhonda is your friend, not blog friend, because that's how I feel about friends I've met through blogging. There's no diff, in my opinion. A friend's a friend, period.
