Has the postperson brought you anything nice today?

4 packs of maderia threads that was meant to be recorded but the postman just shoved them through the door, but it did come with 3 x 1st class stamps a 5p and 1p resuable stamp

I won this on ebay last week:



which came this morning, I am really looking forward to starting

[fleur]

WOW that is beautiful

[Mabel Figworthy]

I can see why you're looking forward to starting that!

A very cheerful "Good Morning" in English from the post girl who usually has quite a down turned face. She brought me 67 lace bobbins that I bought from e-bay. Not that I will be able to start to learn yet but we have to be prepared to buy stash as and when we see it (or am I wrong).

Today i got part off my stash I ordered, Letters from Nora. Letter C chart....so now im looking into the prices off material and thread for this xx

[minij]

No i havn't, well only junk mail etc, however I have decided to start a collection of Anchor threads (only had DMC so far) I have just ordered 40 anchor threads off ebay and chosen the thread numbers I want for £10-75 including postage so hopefully I will get them in the next week.

My tandem cottage order came today I got all the floss I need for my joint drawn thread SAL with Serinde, some fabric and the little 6" R&R frame (like Q-snaps) which is very cute!

[Mabel Figworthy]

Susan I'm so glad you got your goodies!!!

And I had a lovely surprise, a little Mouseloft kit of a very sweet bunnyrabbut from Threadbear -- thank you !

[Mabel Figworthy]

Yes, but in the wrong country

The overdyed Soie d'Alger were delivered to my Mum's yesterday, and today or tomorrow she'll probably receive the Carrie's Thread cottons which I bought with my voucher .

Now all I have to do is wait until April 1st when she comes and visits again...

received my Jane Greenoff books from playtrade on play.com today...second hand and well worth the little money they cost me....very pleased!!

bought 20 silks of ebay but im fuming they are no way silks(two of them are)

[Mabel Figworthy]

Oh CC that's such a shame -- did they say in the description that all the threads were silk? Because that wuld be misleading information and i think you have a right to your money back then, eBay would certainly want to know about a seller doing that

Sorry to hear that CC. Showing my age I can remember floss used to be referred to as 'silks', perhaps this is what has happened.

[crazycat]

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... :IT&ih=025" target="_blank i got these said there silk

[mags]

Mmmm it does say 100% silk, but under the description it says rayon

[minij]

CC I am sorry you have not got what you expected, so disappointing. I have looked at these and they do say 100% pure silk, perhaps you should at least email the seller as surely that is wrong.

[crazycat]

i contacted the seller. he has asked for two days so he can contact his supplier and find the cause of the problem.

[~threadbear~]

I'd definately Email the seller Cc and see what they have to say about it.


I had a wonderful post today.
Rosemary kindly sent me some lovely fabrics, some cardboard bobbins (which I really needed) and a keyring!
Thank you SO much Rosemary, it's wonderful of you.

I have finally received the book that Nettie sent to me. Fabric and Needlecraft project book. It's lovely, thank you, Nettie!
There was a note in the postbox when I got home today which said "parcel", I have to go and collect it at the post office tomorrow. I don't know what it can be - the only thing I am expecting is the ATC card - but surely it is not as big as a "parcel"?
