A Lovely Package In My Mail Box

Hello Friends!
   My Hump Day was made extra special by the arrival of a package in my mail box.
  Recently Justine at http://justinescrossstitch.blogspot.com/?m=1 posted about a bunch of finishing that she had done and which was your favorite. They were all wonderful, but this was my pick...
I love this little owl. I love the look of black work. Green is my favorite color so I love the fabric too.
  So Justine drew a name but then picked 2 more names and I was lucky to be one of those 2. 
So here is what was in that wonderful package.
Justine sent me the wonderful owl pillow. Isn't it fabulous! Justine also sent me a wonderful little book of small Scandanavian designs and a chart that was on my wish list, Cinnamon Stars by Plum Street Samplers with a skein of floss. 
  Justine, thank you for the wonderful package. I am going to go through my linen this weekend and pull floss for this wonderful chart. I will treasure my little owl too!!

Happy Thursday!

Chris
