Dear Coccinelle,

I love the purse! Thank you so much. I especially love the extra cloth you put inside. That makes my bag unique! I'm in love with it. I can't believe someone I don't know was kind enough to make something so special and send it to me. The goodies in the bag were special to! You're the best! Thank you again.

Love,
Aubree

p.s. my mom is still sitting here stunned over your generosity. We're working on a special care package for you!

Did you notice the metallic thread? I was so impressed with that part especially. [Smile]

Posted by Coccinelle (Member # 5832) on :

Aubree- I'm SO glad you got it! I REALLY liked making it. [Smile]

Posted by Tammy (Member # 4119) on :

We sure did!

We love the thread and the cloth the bag is lined with!

Aubree' is not standing over my shoulder now, telling me what to type. She went to go pack her new bag with all the important stuff she has to carry around.

I'm stunned!

I told my husband that someone from Hatrack made the purse for Aubree' and sent it. He's stunned.

I know many here at Hatrack have experienced the love and generosity of others here many times over.

This is a first for me.

I'm sitting here feeling all warm and tingly!

(((((Coccinelle)))))

Aubree- Anything you make would be lovely to me. [Smile]

I went out for dinner and I couldn't stop thinking about this thread [Smile]

You know what Aubree? Suppose Coccinelle inspires you to make something for two other people and send it to them. Suppose this takes you two weeks.
Then suppose those people you sent gifts to will also pick two people each to send something to, also within two weeks.
Then after a year Coccinelle has started the making of 2x2x2x2x...(26 times)= over 67 million happy people!

This is why Hatrack is the coolest place in the universe.

This is awesome. I truly believe that kindness for no other reason than to be kind is one of the most beautiful things in the universe. This thread makes me smile.

I'll post a picture as soon as I can. It's hard to get that bag out of her hands. Her friends are absolutely crazy about it. She's even taken it to Basket Ball practice. Taking a bag to practice...now that's a first for her!

Well, maybe we'll pick a random Hatracker to "pick on" as well as Coccinelle. We're still trying to figure out how to be "crafty" and make something cool.

I'm still in la-la land over this. [Big Grin]

Coccinelle, we now need a framed picture of you for our mantel. [Smile]
