completely.blown.away

Once again, my Secret Pal, has completely blown me away. But this time she absolutely drove me to tears. I'm not kidding.
The beauty of this gift, the sheer generosity, I'm nearly speechless.
Go ahead click on the picture to enlarge it. I dare you.
What you'll see is a silver hammered bracelet from One Of A Kind, hand engraved in Hebrew "she selects wool and flax and works with her eager hands". 
And, thats not all. I think its stitch markers on a holder. But what I think I would be most likely to use it as, is a shawl pin.
I have to say again, I have the most incredible Secret Pal. She has pampered me above and beyond what Secret Pals are required to do. And always knowing when I'm having a rough week, especially through all of our difficult transitions these past few months.
Whew. Secret Pal...I'm not sure I'll ever be able to properly thank you. Honestly.

Aww shucks, Carla! I am so glad you liked your things. I made the stitch holder and markers, but you are absolutely right, they are really meant to be worn with your handiwork.
Good luck in Syracuse, and chin up, Spring WILL REALLY be here soon!
