I have been a bit slow on blog posting lately...we are auctioning our investment property tomorrow and with tricky (I am being extremely generous with that adjective) tenants and minor renovations, carpet laying at the eleventh hour...it has zapped much of my kid free time.  But today I am letting you know about a super fun series I have been invited to participate in by two of my very good blogging friends - Marta from Do Guincho and Marte from Compagnie M. You can read the full details of the series here.

The series is called, "Mailbox surprise".  There are 10 guest bloggers from around the world taking part and it basically involves each of us sending a secret package of fabric and notions to our assigned nominee and then after we each receive our secret package, we make a garment of our choosing and share it.  Fun. I loooove getting fabric mail so when Marte and Marta asked me if I was interested, I said yes right away!  We have each been given ideas of what our nominee might like by being given a general likes/dislikes form and links to our nominee's pinterest boards and obviously their blog. Marte and Marta are also playing along by swapping packages with each other and sharing their creations at the beginning of the series.

We are all asked to send off our packages in the first week of December.  We will then be sharing our creations from late January to late March. Here is the fun line up of bloggers...
