I finally opted to wear this gown because I wanted to make sure I wasn't too hard to find in the Queen's Ballroom tonight. I'll be waiting for all of you in the VIP section...tabs on me ;)
To celebrate this wondrous occasion, and in addition to our exchange of greeting cards in the *gift of jewels* project, I thought I'd save a special gem to give away to one of you today...a perfect symbol of the love we've all been sharing amongst each other.
This crocheted and embroidered masterpiece was handmade and donated by the beautiful Queen Elizabeth, a talented fiber artist who graciously rules over her wonderful world of Landanna.

Greetings! My Gift of Jewels is here! I received a beautiful colored drawing of Hudson (?) New York on a large postcard today with a quaint and charming greeting. It read as follows: A jewel of sorts I send to you from a town ten blocks wide. A view from my window I share with you from the less famous side. I wish you Hope & Happiness and pray that you are truely blessed and that in your present you find daily gifts.
I am sorry to say that I can't make our the signature. So I wish to thank you and tell you that you made my day! Happy New Year to you!
Se'lah, I have posted my gift of Jewels comment on the wrong post.
So here it is, where it belongs:
I am glad to report I received today a beautiful vintage postcard, my very own *Gift of Jewel* from Cam at http://www.journeywildly.com/. Thank you, Cam I love it!
Se'lah, I thank you for reconnecting me with my forgotten love of hand-written cards and all things paper...
