PILLOW ARRIVED


WOW, I couldn't have asked for something better for me.
I LOVE strawberries (ask my DH) and when I saw it, I couldn't understand why I did not have that pattern.
Thank you so much Lorna, what a bright spot this pillow makes in our LR and every time I look at it.
was also trying to figure out how you sewed it and beyond me......!!!!

Thank you Vivan

The postman almost forgot to deliver this yesterday, he'd pushed my mail through and then knocked on the door a few minutes later with this saying he almost forgot, lol.
Vivan stitched this perfectly for me and she sent some great goodies too.
But not only that she also stitched a bookmark as well and pinned it to the back
Thank you so much Vivan, I love it and have it sat on my table so I can see it whenever I look up


Thank you, Lucy

I received this gorgeous cushion from Lucy yesterday.  The postman had tried to deliver earlier in the week, but I was out.  It was well worth the wait and I am enhoying looking at it when I'm sat in the living room.

Thank you, Lucy

Wonderful cushion received

Here is the lovely cushion and extras from Lindsay.. it is all beautiful and such a lovely surprise.
I have always loved this design when I saw some one else had stitched it and it is perfectly stitched.

Included were some fantastic fabric with all stitchy bits on it and some smelly thread.. all wonderful.
Thank you indeed Lindsay  I am delighted.

Apologies

My cushion, finished as it is, will unfortunately have to wait until Monday/Tuesday to be posted.. I had money put by to post it, but we ran out of electricity, so that became the priority. Will let you know when it is posted, and will send it recorded, as always x

Tutorial help

I'm thinking of signing up for LHN exchange (yes I know there's not much time left) but before I do I've been trying to find a tutorial on making a tall pillow. I can find them for a normal square pillow but none for a tall one so I thought I'd ask if anyone knows of one that's not on wordpress as my puter won't load anything there.

Thanks

Just wondering

If Paula has recieved my gift ??? I haven't heard anything yet and I sent it a while ago.

Exchange

My Exchange arrived this morning, but I can't post any pictures until after Christmas because Polly has wrapped both the exchange piece, AND the gift as one present.

Thanks, Polly.

My presents to Claire

As Claire has already received my presents I thought I'd show you what did I send to her. I chose a Lizzie Kate design, because I like her patterns very much and because I thought Claire and her family may like it too. I included some Christmas stickers as well, as from her blog I know that Claire likes making cards. Finally a wrapped piece that she can put under the tree and open on Christmas Day.
