Kitty's mystery man & our mystery Valentine Giveaway project ....

Hello Blogland Neighborhood! Where oh where has this week gone? I for one really couldn't tell ya .... except last weekend plus Monday was spent blowing all of our collective noses here at MBIAJ Headquarters. Made me think we should buy stock in the toilet paper hat featured on Sharon's blog.

Anyhow, when the nose dripping slowed down, our Sewing Dept did get some sewing done. Here's one finished ..... yes, I said FINISHED project (in fact it was mailed out and received by the 3 year old birthday girl already ..... sometimes our occasional efficiency is mind boggling! .... mostly because it doesn't happen too often!) ......anyway, here it is.....


...the crayon roll (unrolled) and....



...the crayon roll (rolled up).

I found the directions for this very cute project in the Fall 2008 Quilts and More magazine ....and it was designed by Linda Lum Debono.

.......BUT WHAT ABOUT THE MYSTERY PROJECT AND KITTY'S MYSTERY MAN you're wondering.... well, here's a little peek of the Mystery Valentine Giveaway Project.....


....hmmmm what the heck is it ?
















...and here's a peek of Kitty's Mystery Man/ Valentine's Day date.....




.....she says he's tall, dark and handsome .... a real dreamboat....and a snappy dresser with sophisticated taste ....


....OK, anyway ..... don't forget to leave a comment on our previous post by this Saturday, Valentine's Day to be entered into our Valentine's Day Giveaway ..... the drawing will be (around) 4 PM EST (because, as you know, Kitty "The Queen of Hearts" has a date with her new mystery man and she needs time to primp before he picks her up at 7.....)

Be back soon!
Toodles,
Mary Anne (aka Mare)
