Lots of Lovely Mail
Over the past few days I have had lots of little red and white cards in my box. It is always exciting to go into the post office and pick up the parcels.
First I received an Easter swap from my blogging friend
Melinda from USA
Look at the lovely gifts she stitched for me.
Also Peggy sent my Pincushion Swap gift all the way from Ireland.
Love my “Chooky” pincushion. The ECO shopping bag is a great idea a group stitch to raise money. Scenic card and the Lindt chocolate has now gone!!! Yum!!
My block Christmas Block send by Dawn from England.
and TWO blocks from Fiona, Qld Australia for the Aussie Swap.
and the last parcel arrived yesterday.
It was sent by Naomi, South Australia. My Tilda Easter Swap which was run by Cat and Lisa.
Oh!! Look at my Bunny !! I have called her “Tilly” Love her floral dress and yellow pantaloons. Lovely bunny tea towel, card purse, pen and MORE Lindt chocies. (They are still in the fridge.)
Tilly has made herself right at home here on the block.
Hanging around the garden
Getting a ride from Ted.
Sitting and enjoying the view.
and then Tilly thought she would help me sew.
Naomi look what I have put in my little purse.
My loyalty cards for fabric shops.
I am delighted with ALL my wonderful parcels from all over the world.
Thank you Ladies.
