Show it off Saturday Linky Party

thanks for all the entries last week and all the great suggestions
using Gail's suggestion

Karen you card is lovely - Saturday Posting sounds like a nice change. Show it off Saturday? 
struck a cord with me
thought a lot about it and what we really do in "Bloggy world"
my mom is a quilter and goes to her guild meeting every week
and they "show" off their works to each other, share patterns & techniques,
and where to shop and who is having sales.
That is exactly what we do with our global connected friends

Thanks Gail email me your address and I am going
to send you a little goodness....
