WOW! Yesterday I was moaning about the shuttles I lost and then to-day...I will let the photos speak for themselves! In the morning I got letter from Michelle with a surprise inside! Thank you, Michelle! I had no idea you were sending me one of these. ( Did I sign a petition? Plead on your site? Beg in Latin? I forget!) What fun!
I forgot to give you all the link to the "shrinky dink" data on Michelle's blog here: Lots of you had heard of this technque, but not me! This is a brand new experience and I like it!
Then, later in the day I went to the post office to pick up what I thought was a book from Amazon that had been delayed in the postal strike. Wrong.
It was a HUGE box from far away, from my buddy, Suneeti!
☀So, you see, you just never know. : )
p.s.
Not to be stuck with just one bobbin shuttle, I remembered that I did have two Pony shuttles tucked away... (Of course THEY were not the ones that got tossed!) So, I tried them and they felt terrible with that big bulky tail, so... Ta-da!
What FANTASTIC surprises! And so well timed. Love your brilliant smile!!!

What a great way to brighten your day! Aren't those little shrinky dink shuttles adorable?
ReplyDeleteOoh, such marvelous goodies in the post! What a lovely treat!
ReplyDeleteWould you mind sharing details of that swirly blue shuttle? is it a Shrinky Dink shuttle?
Wow!! Ijust love getting surprises in the mail. With the strike over, all we have received in the mail was a bill from the township and a flier wanting to sell us insurance! :(
ReplyDeleteIsdihara, Thank you! I forgot to share the info about the Dhrinky Dinks and so here it is:

How cool! I bet my humble bit of thread will be reaching you soon to :)
ReplyDeleteThat flat shuttle may be just what you need to introduce The Boss into tatting herself!
Ann, Thank you - you are very kind!
ReplyDeleteTatfully Yours - BILLS! I am so sorry! You should complain to the Post Office!
creativasuculencia, That is exactly what I thought! I will use this shuttle to teach The Boss to tat!
Our threads were delayed in transit because of the strike. I hope yours will reach you very soon!
Fox : )
What lovelies, Fox! Wonderful to get gifts in the mail, especially surprise ones! Looks like you have new goodies to play with. Happy Canada Day.
ReplyDeleteYour goodies in the mail came at a great time, when you needed the pick-me-up. I was horrified at your loss - how awful for you! I'm glad you could make the pony shuttles work for you (you're not the only one I've heard of to fix that particular problem that way!)
