WOO HOO! My ditty bag and goodies arrived a day earlier than the USPS originally said. Thank you, Candy!
I love the spring floral fabric and added lace that Candy made the bag out of. She also added gaarden-themed goodies in the bag: plant marker stakes, Carrot, Tomato, and wildflower seeds, garden gloves, and garden-themed note cards. Thank you so much, Candy!
And the wildflower seeds were perfect timing. We have a sloped area and wanted to plant wildflowers there.
I hope you enjoy the ditty bag and goodies I sent.
Farmgirl hugs,

Debbie, Thank you for such a beautiful, slow stitched ditty bag. I especially love the virgin mary charm and the navy anchor you added in honor of my dear Mr. Frank. The ribbons you enclosed inside were beautiful and the navy/military cards you added were so special. I enclosed them in Mr. Franks Memory box. Thank you!

Debbie and Marlene, your ditty bags both mailed yesterday afternoon for two day shipment.
I hope you each like yours, I made each one different... please keep in mind I am not a grand seamstress by any means, but they were made with love! XO

April, thank you so much for My Ditty Bag and tucks. The Ditty Bag is beautiful and just the right size. I especially love the vintage linen you used as well as the pretty spring time fabric. 
Thank you for being my partner and our hostess.
Big Hugs,
Debbie

So happy you liked it Debbie, and happy yours made it in two day post as well. I loved the vintage linen, I didn't mean for it to cover up the fabric on the front, but I couldn't bare to cut it up, so yours ended up a little bigger as well. I hope the angel wing brings you comfort. XO

Oh Sherry!! How PERFECT is your beautiful ditty bag!! In every way! Its even got a liner AND a pocket!!( I made 2 attempts at creating yours with the colors you liked and both got foiled with the help of my lively, lovely fur companions!:( sorry) Anyway, yours is divine, as are the sweet happy tucks that came with it! Thank you from ny heart for the cuticle balm, little cards, clip, wipes, small notebook ( really needed that the other day qhen I had to ask a receptionist for a computer paper to write notes on, lol, great timing) tissues and now a third hanky for my collection!! I hate to say my ditty bag isn't so professional as sewing is probably the least of my talents, but I liked it because the kitties weren't there to help me >°°<
Thank you SO SO MUCH! I truly love it!

Dianna, I received my beautiful ditty bag today. I just love it and I think you having help from the kitty is great. I have fur babies too. Always right under my feet. Thank you so much for the wonderful tucks you sent. Love the theme too. I love bees. Have my thinking cap on for what to use the wooden embellishments. Can’t wait to plant the flower seeds. Thanks for everything 
Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

Hi Marlene, I received my darling carrot ditty bag today, thank you! I plan to stuff it with some tissue paper and add to my easter decorations. After that, I'm thinking I may use it store some of my garden seeds I save from year to year, wouldn't that be too cute!? (Totally reminds me of Peter Cottontale, I love Beatrix Potter) I loved all the sweet easter themed surprises you sent as well, I'm definatley ready for spring... Our local credit union had the following message on their sign this week: Alexa, skip to summer. LOL! I second that message!

Thank You Hannah for the fun crocheted ditty bag. Not sure what it will get used for yet, but I always need project bags.
