WonDerFuL WedNesDaY


Well why wouldn't I consider this a wonderful Wednesday... you see I've been lucky!




First of all I won a giveaway on rsislandcrafts.blogspot.com which was this lovely pattern.
Thanks Robin...

Then I was fortunate enough to have my name literally pulled from a hat by Christine M at http://macdonaldspatch.blogspot.com  and won these gifts...
Thanks my friend!
And number 3... well that's a doosey! I WON a My Memories Software package... and I'm over the moon about it. You see I did ask the big guy (aka Santa) to deliver one in my stocking... but now he can give it away to someone else... I have it !!!! Yippee!
Thanks to another friend Christine.
All I need now is a little time to play with it... might be after Xmas ... but then... well all I can say is look out! I'll probably turn into a pain I'm sure... giggle
Anyways... that's why today is a good great day!
~*~*~*~*~

I've been away for a few days... thank heavens for blogger scheduling... because I had to deliver some knitted items to "Past Times" in Cooma. My friend Helen and her craft group donated some 15 tee shirts and a warm knitted blanket. These all go out to the outback of Australia to the Aboriginals who need to keep small babies warm in the winter. My SIL knitted up 30 tees too and I knitted some beanies and added them to the box as well. 


While there we had a walk around the gardens and museum type of buildings. It was a lovely stopover and I enjoyed walking in the sunshine... where oh where has it gone?... anyways it was a very interesting visit.
I'll show some more pic's tomorrow perhaps... some crafty ones at least.
Here are the gardens I mentioned... the lavender was just wonderful... and I LoVe lavender!!!!

Hi Cheryll! Lovely presents in the mail! More important, though, is your gift of giving. What a wonderful gesture for all those babies - KUDOS!! I'm sure all the knitted caps and t-shirts are very much appreciated!
