Sometimes a girl just needs to buy herself a gift.
One that arrives in the mail
Every month...Like clock work...
Do you know what I mean?
When I was a kid living in Europe I developed a uber love of mail, any mail, but mail with STUFF in it was oh so delightful! Was it from Granny? The Sears Catalog? My friends stateside?
At college this passion for mail was still there as my parents were across the ocean from me, no cell phones, no email, no texting.. just mail.. pure.. beautiful mail.
My dear friends at Sweetwater Designs are so amazing. They have this little pattern "PLUS" of the month and I signed up, yes I did! Because I LOVE MAIL!
So far I'm just collecting envelopes... but you may want to jump on in with me because look at what the "PLUS" part is... Fabric tags!!!
And...
ONE has YOUR name.. Be still my heart how stinkin cute is that!
But let me show you THEIR photo of this month's project, as they are much better at photos than moi...
and they actually MADE theirs.. imagine that.....
Click here to get in on the fun, plus check out the other goodies at their Etsy shop...
Rumor has it I ordered several of their prints on cotton and framed them for my house..












I have belonged to Sweetwater Label Crew for about two years now and I love it! I usually order the kit to go along with and jump right in the minute it arrives. You'll love it too!!!

Oh I love their lable club! I've been doing it for almost a year! I have collected more envelopes than projects made, but it's on my TO-DO list. BTW Pat, since you mentioned framing some Sweetwater prints....you have to show us !!!!

I went to visit their site, and fell in love with the quilt block subway art, and I ordered it. I even already have the perfect frame. I ordered some of the gray quilt block fabric last week. I want to use it as the background for applique blocks. Still thinking I might need to do the club...
