BEAUTIFUL BLOGLAND FRIENDS


Don't you love surprises! Well, I certainly received a lovely surprise the other day from gorgeous Sue..    I opened the envelope and found these.....  do you see a bit of a theme happening?




                            I untied the owl ribbon and unwrapped the owl fabric to discover this......


 
 
So then I opened my amazing leather owl box and discovered a couple of beautiful purple fabrics and the most lovely purple Cottage Garden thread.
 
 
 
THANKYOU so much Sue.
 
But wait, there's more. A while ago I won something from Anthea's blog and it arrived this week too.
Anthea has made a lovely zipped bag and put all sorts of goodies inside for me. I admire anyone who can sew zippers!


 
 
THANKYOU Anthea.


So, what have I been stitching this past week? Not a lot! But I did manage to hand quilt the May Mini and cut the binding ready to sew on.


 
I also started a secret project .
 
 
 
 
 I have said it before and I will say it again.....Bloggy friends are awesome!!!!
 
 
ANGEL BLESSINGS.....this angel pic is uncanny, it looks just like my youngest daughter! Really!
