My lovely post woman brought me three packages today.

One contained the threads, frame and flowere fairies book form Mel...Thank you very much they are great.

Second and third were cones of aran lambs wool from Scotland (bought on e-bay), they are scrumpy to say the least. I was really surprised that postie delivered these because if things will not go into a letter box she does not normally bring them.

I am a happy bunny.

I am so glad you like them Rose! I was worried the cow would look odd. I am also glad it stood up to being mailed. I was worried the thing wouldn't hold and so the cow wouldn't stand up like it should LOL

Enjoy it!

I rec a 20"x30" Magic Guide Aida in 18ct for £5.63 and a Laguna fat quarter 25ct for £5.74. I bought them fom http://www.bluegrooveracing.co.uk/cross ... s-c45.html" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank .... They also have a shop on ebay and the quality of the stuff is great, DMC is only 31p and they have just started stocking HAED patterns :D The website is slightly cheaper than on ebay :roll:

Ive bought both to see if I can see to stitch on the 25ct :oops:
