Look what came in the mail...... yep I cannot get the photo to upload. I have the worst luck with photos. Just picture a brown box.

*edit*

My husband had it tucked under his arm. I didn't even notice till he asked who sent me a package. This package came at just the right time. I needed to smile on a busy weekend. I'll try and get the other photos up loaded. Lucky in winning unlucky in computing.

*edit*

I can tell you what was in it any way. A wonderful set of double pointed needles with bears on the tips, an adorable tape measure. Justin has asked for it but no way is he getting his hands on it. This tape measure is going deep in my knitting bag in the organizing caddy. The caddy is prefect for all the little things you need but fall to the bottom of your bag. I'm getting organized tonight. The wonderful book and cotton you saw in another post. I'm ready to make a sweater for Kathryn from it, after the holidays :) Thank you again Lucy Bug I was really surprised. Ask my kids I never win anything. It was nice. Well back to knitting I have a bunting to finish.

After much deliberation we will be making changes to how Lucybug operates. We greatly appreciate all those who have supported this blog and/or sent items to Lucybug. We hope that all of you will continue to post and support the intent of Lucybug: Helping to spread kindness and support to those who have lost a child or who have a preemie or ill child.

At this time Lucybug will no longer have it's own mailing address. If items have already been sent, they should arrive fine. We will compile a list of other organizations that accept donations and are willing to be listed on Lucybug as a resource for those who do not already have a place to send their donations.

This weblog will continue as a place to share what you have made as inspiration to others, share patterns for babies, build friendships, and encourage each other as we use needlecraft skills to help others. We hope to increase it's scope by encouraging anyone doing charity knitting for babies, living or bereavement items, to post here. The blog is open to anyone donating to a local hospital or charity or sending off to any one of the several organizations out there that support these types of efforts.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Today is the day to remember a baby whom passed away! A day to think about grieving families. A day to say a prayer for families that are hurting! Today is the day we shall mourn the loss of thousands of lives wanted or unwanted. Today is the day we mourn little babies. Today is Rememberance day!

I remember and will always my precious babies

I can't wait to see you in Heaven my sweet angels

Inca's beautiful hand-smocked gown set! It's very lovely! And I was surprised to see three darling little pumpkin hats. Inca, did you make those on a knifty knitter? If so, I bet my daughters would like making those (and actually so would I). Do you have instructions?

I so appreciate everyone who has contributed to Lucybug that I wish I could send you all a thank you package! There were 58 items entered in the drawing with their appropriate point counts! That's a lot of knitting, crocheting and sewing! You are all winners to me for caring and contributing.

For the sake of the drawing, our winner is knit-a-little! A package will be heading that way with the Debblie Bliss Book, yarn, and a few little extras.

Thanks again everyone!!

It's that time! We will be drawing the winning name for our "Thank You Drawing" as soon as we double check that EVERYONE who wants to, who has knit anything for Lucybug that was not in the previous drawing, has their name and items included.

Pink Dandelion has sent out confirmation e-mails to make sure your items are included! If you didn't get an e-mail from her today please contact us not later than tomorrow so we can get the drawing finished and the the drawing gifts sent off to the winner.

Thanks to Everyone!
