Parcels!

Firstly I must post the parcel I received from Mary a few weeks ago . Sorry Mary.

It contained this cute "Frog" appliqued on the softest tea towel and the lovely card that has an old McCalls dress pattern on it and the envelope looks like a drafted pattern....

Thank you so much Mary I enjoy using it.


If you noticed on the left of my side bar I have joined Chooky for a "Churn Dash SAL" along with many other ladies from all over the world that also join Chooky on her fun Zoom GTGs.

Of course I needed to buy some fabrics to add to what I have. (Below photo)
As we don't have any stores that sell what I wanted I ordered on line. 

 
The first parcel arrived quickly ..
Blues for the Churn Dash and the other two for a UFO project.

The second parcel took over fours weeks as it arrived in Perth, Western Australia and then was sent back to Victoria and then back again.
So annoying as it had the background fabric in so couldn't start my cutting and sewing.

  
Thankfully it's finally arrived so I can start  my 8 Churn Dashes which need to be done by the end of the month. 

Must away make a cuppa and start cutting.

Stay well and I hope you find time to stitch.

Hugs  Maria ❤

  19. At least your fabric finally arrived even if it did have an extended trip. I must have missed hearing about Chooky's churn dash SAL. Looking forward to seeing what everyone does.
