handmade (^____^)

This week I got the best surprise in the mail. My lovely auntie sent one of her beautiful quilts in the mail as a wedding present. I've always drooled over her beautiful handmade quilts, but honestly never thought I would ever own one. My grandma (my mum and aunt's mother) used to make quilts for her grandkids' wedding before she passed. So I just never expected to get a handmade quilt in my lifetime. We used to spend quite a bit of time at my auntie's farm when I was little and growing up, and I adore her. So, to receive this beautiful quilt from her got me a little teary eyed when I opened the package. It even smelt like her house!! Things are so precious when you least expect them. (^___^) Now at night when I'm worrying about life's stupid problems, I get a cup of tea, a book and curl up in this quilt full of love.
