Overwhelmed....Pumpkins

I decided to post an updated picture of my progress on The Great Pumpkin Conspiracy. I will have it finished this weekend for sure! Here is the latest picture:

I woke up this morning to find a wonderful surprise on my kitchen table: that huge giveaway that I won over at Cindy Mae's blog at the end of 2009! Yay!!! I am a bit overwhelmed with all of the goodies inside the package and so thankful to be the recipient of such a wonderful prize! Thank you so very much Cindy Mae!  :D

Here are some pictures of my winnings:

Even Sandy had to take a look at all of the stash I received!

I am not sure what I want to do first, but there are a couple of front-runners for sure. 

I will post another update on the finished Great Pumpkins tomorrow along with the latest Postcards received.

Postcards Are Coming In...

I received 3 new postcards today! I managed to mail out 10 postcards this morning on my way to work. I know that I will be getting at least 1 postcard from France sometime in the next month as my best friend is going home (Nantes) for a visit this weekend. She is awesome about mailing me a postcard while on vacation.

Here is a snapshot of those received so far:

For a full view of each, check out  my Postcard Exchange page.

I have made a little more progress on The Great Pumpkin Conspiracy, but still not finished. I have been a bit achy and tired from the Holiday delivery schedule. I plan to get back on track and have it finished this week and get some more work done on the Christmas Design SAL hosted by Yoyo.

I am also officially in my final semester at Vermont College of Union Institute and will be busily finishing my MA Thesis over the next several weeks. Therefore, I don't plan to have much stitching time during the daylight hours. As with last term, I do plan to devote my weekends to stitching and other activities as I am sure I will need a break from time to time from reading and writing, LOL!

'Til next time...

Happy Easter...
