I got my first RAOK in the mail from an anonymous fairy godmother on Crochetville. (Thank you, thank you FGM!) The package had a sweet little note and these ribbons. There’s a handful more, including some pretty baby blue and sage satin ones. All of them are beautiful and will be used for sure. And I’m so excited to have a ribbon stash now!
I also received my Swap Swap Gals package today from Zarah. (Thanks Zarah!) Here’s a little sneak peak of what I got:
There wasn’t enough time today to get Zarah’s swap gifts blog-ready. I’ll get everything photographed tomorrow ASAP.
Meanwhile, I’m putting the finishing touches on my own Swap Swap Gals package for Katrina. All the knitting/crocheting is done, but I am forced to sew a few things so it is going slowly.
And for those select few that are waiting, I’m working on the Through Any Window Baby Blanket tutorial also.
*That’s cool* a random fact
Pabst Beer is now called Pabst Blue Ribbon beer because it was the first beer to win a blue ribbon at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893.






That looks like some yummy gummies! So, what do you with a ribbon stash?
What pretty ribbons! I am one of those few who cannot wait to see your tutorial! I have been slacking with my blog and hope to have an update tonight.
Isn’t getting a ROAK awesome? It makes for a happy day! The ribbons are beautiful! I’m sure you’re going to find great way to use them.
Thanks for the link on the backgrounds! I’m going to read it carefully and see if I can improve a bit. Thanks for thinking of it!
Thank you! I look forward to recieving my swap. Silly me… this is my 1st swap and I’ve been so excited and busy working on my gifts that I hadn’t thought about who was sending me gifts!!! I have checked out your site frome time to time getting inspired because I do want to learn how to crochet. I love the cute scrubbies you’ve made…
