Mushroom goodness comes in gift form too. From top to bottom:

Toy Mushroom
A vintage wooden mushroom with holes in the top. I'm not sure what it's original use was, but I'm using it for crochet hooks. I love the grass accent. Thanks again for everything Claire.

Frog and Mushroom Fabric
Part of a surprise gift in the mail from Alison. I think I will be making some pants for my boys out of this. Alison has a great yarn and fabric store in Felton if you are in the Santa Cruz, CA area. Check out her blog for sale info and finished project shots.

Bluebird with Mushroom
Part of my birthday gift from Bethany. She also makes a mean cupcake. Only one more day and she's quitting the man to become a craft entrepreneur. Go B!

I have a favour for this mushrooms, too, they are so bright and even for me so easy to draw. Great gifts, such lovely surprises.
And I LOVE your baby blanket, it´s wonderwonderful! The funny thing is, that I am doing a blanket and a cushion in the same colours at the moment with the same patterns, bobbles and flowers,granny squares and stripes, but I have to confess, yours is much more nicer and so beautiful. I am so much looking forward to see the finished blanket!

I have a bird from Bethany as well, and it is one of my prized possessions. I love it!

And I'm green with envy over your pretty mushrooms!

Thanks for the lead to Allison's shop. I *love* Felton. Another excuse to go to the White Raven for chai.
