Mabel, looks like you are going to be happily busy for the foreseeable future!



I do think you should consider changing the top photo so that you hide your address on the parcel. Just thinking of all those Nigerian princes and insurance scammers out there.

That will certainly keep you busy for quite a while. Great things come in small parcels for sure.

A very good idea as one never knows who looks in.

Thanks for the advice, Joanna and Sally - I did think about fuzzing it, but as my full address is on my website as well, I think they would probably have found me by now :-)

What wonderful treasures in that small box. Oh so many tiny packets but I am sure you will make many more wonderful things from what I have seen of your work on here Mabel.

I must have been very good lately as I've received lots of goodies (although I ordered them all myself :D )

First up is a book with lots of Spring designs by Christiane Dahlbeck, and the flower thread by Fremme and V&H needed for two of the projects. I also ordered some white Belfast linen, but didn't include it in the picture.

Image

I also received two kits by Haandarbejdets Fremme, the designer is Gerda Bengtsson. I just love her designs and am beyond happy to finally possess two of her kits. They include linen and flower thread, but I don't know yet when I'll take the plunge and start one of them.
