Seasonal Exchange - Fall received

I came home on Monday night to a nice surprise left for me by the mail carrier!  It was my Seasonal Exchange made by my buddy Lisa S.  She'd given me a "heads up" it was coming so I was really thrilled when it came so quickly!

Design:  Skating Party
Designer:  Mary Garry
Fabric: 32 ct. Queen Anne's Lace
Floss:  Lisa's conversion using DMC, CC, and GAST

Lisa knows I love Mary Garry designs.  I've had this one on my wish list for a while.  Now I have an extra special one made by a friend.  I have it sitting where I can see it from my stitching nest.

 
Check out the cute box finish!  Lisa told me she'd had the "Think Snow" buttons for a while and added them last minute.  I think they are perfect for this design!  I love how she matched the blue dress to the box color too.  She painted and lined the box herself.  Such talent!
 
Thank you so much, dear friend for stitching for me and for coordinating the exchange!  It was totally worth the wait and I didn't have to stalk the mailman for too long either.  LOL! 
 
As always, thanks so much for stopping by to visit with me today.  I hope everyone is having a good week!
 
 
Until Next Time,
 
The Inspired Stitcher

What a cute box for your exchange piece. Although, I have to say think spring instead of think snow! But I would have to admire it also.
