a great mail week

My poor mail carrier. In addition to the daily pound of catalogs and political flyers, he also has to schlep this really good stuff. First up, from my Secret Pal:

Two lovely skeins of luxurious yarn. One is bamboo, the other is soy silk. What to make?  Perhaps something where I could use them together? Thanks, SP!

Inspired by Kim, I went on a little spree at Reprodepot. (You can see them better if you click on them). I think that groovy 70's-ish print on the far left will be perfect for a quilt I want to start after the holidays. I have no idea what I'm going to do with the Munki Munki pool fabric, but I couldn't resist it. I also got some fabric from the sale bin at eQuilter. I love the animal print:

Then, I got the Katy Horan print from Tiny Showcase that I ordered a couple of weeks ago:

And last, but certainly not least, I've got one, too! Unusual Toys for You to Knit and Enjoy by Jess Hutch. It's wonderful! Since everyone else has shown the cover, here's a different bit:

I plan on making at least two of everything in this book!
