I have been the happy recipient of two packages this week. One – from Jodie – I wrote about yesterday. The other arrived on my doorstep during the torrential rains on Tuesday. My wonderful friend Brenda of Cozy Little House sent me a present. By the way, it came via Susan’s shop at The T-Cozy – another favorite blogging friend.
Oh. my. gosh. McCoy – in pink! Pink McCoy is harder to find out there and I don’t have this piece. Needless to say, I am thrilled. Thank you, dear Brenda, for this lovely, thoughtful gift. If you are not familiar with Brenda’s blog, you can click the link above or on my sidebar. You will be happy you dropped by. Brenda writes beautifully and has the most wonderful house and garden, as well as some beautiful and beloved pets. I am so grateful that we have become good friends.
How about some more egg cups? It is Easter time, after all.
These sweeties are mostly decorated with chicks and ducks. The one on the left, however, has two dogs holding up the cup. I forgot to post the egg cup sitting on the pink McCoy along with the other bunny cups. I’ve always loved this one because the bunny reminds me of Scout. The egg cup in the foreground with the two yellow chicks was made for Fanny Farmer and was given to me when I was a very little girl by my godparents, Edith and Nick. Both Edith and Nick passed away recently. I held on to it all those years and it eventually sparked my desire to collect more.
I have a few more to share with you in the next few days.
Okay, square #32 – warning: I am not real happy with this one but it is what it is.
“Ode to my favorite baseball team, the Boston Red Sox.” I tried to copy the logo freehand – but the left sock looks like it is has stretched out. Reminds me of the sock I wore over my walking cast when I had a broken ankle! Oh well.
Claudia,
Love the McCoy and I am going to get really serious about it this summer!!!! I will keep my eyes open for pink.
The egg cups are wonderful – there are just too many things to collect and too many things to make!

Well, the Red Sox are in fact mighty, right? ;) (Actually, I think they look quite nice.)
Your egg cup collection is amazing.
That’s the best collection of egg cups I’ve ever seen. Really sweet and unique.

Have a happy happy Easter weekend, Claudia
Hi, what a beautiful collection.Have a great easter….Kathy
I just adore those cute egg cups, Claudia. Well, guess I did pretty well for someone who doesn’t know a thing about pottery. I had no idea pink was hard to find. I’m glad now I chose that instead of the yellow! Because I kept going back and forth over that decision.
Brenda
oh you lucky girl you, pink mccoy :) absolutely love all the bunny cups too!
Oh my gosh those are way too cute! Great collection ;)
Your new pink McCoy pot is lovely! I love Susan’s T-Cozy site. And your little duckling egg cups are so sweet.

Oh Claudia Sweetie…
The pink McCoy is just beautiful. So gorgeous. I can’t wait to see where you put it, and what you put in it to display. So beautiful.
I love your egg cups. I have never seen any like this before. They are just exquisite. So pretty each one touched with so much love. Just precious truly.
Your stitch a day is becoming quite the gorgeous piece of color. I love your Boston Red Socks, and I really adore the one you did of the back of the head of your critter. How beautiful that was. You have done such a great job with each piece that you have constructed. Love it.
Before I forget, I adored the picture of you with Lee. How beautiful that was. Just a perfect shot of 2 very special people in Don’s life. Please let him know I continue to pray for him.
Have a beautiful Easter. Country hugs sweetie and so much love, Sherry
You have a great collection there. An egg cup is something I don’t have. But then again I don’t eat many eggs:)
Love how your stitching is coming along.
Blessings!
Gwen
