Happy Mail Day!

I got some more fun mail today! I know, it's been a good week for me in that department. Penelope entering into the terrible twos has offset it just enough that I don't feel too giddy. These are the potholders that I received from Kimberly, my partner in the Potholder Pass 6 swap. The theme was monotone and I asked for pink, green or blue and Kimberly went with the pinks! That's always a good choice for me. It's funny that she chose an asterisk block because I made up an asterisk block for her before changing course and making these. My block was made up of four asterisks all in different shades of green Kona solids. I am still not sure of what if anything to do with that orphan block. I like the way that Kimberly turned her asterisks into flowers. Clever, clever, clever!
Kimberly also included some fabric from the Bahamas which thrills me. I love having bits of fabric from different places. I will have to think long and hard before cutting into it. There is also some cute trim with turtles on it.
Thank you Kimberly!
