Oh, yes. I got a lovely Christmas card from Jilly, and a simply wonderful coaster with a Margaret Sherry cat - thank you so much, Jilly! :wub: :wub: :wub:

I also got the charts for my Blackstone Fantasy Garden, but I have to wait for the threads. It's ok, I want to catch up on Carpet page first. The charts look great, big and clear enough. :)

He is just adorable! I think I will take him with me to school and he will have a place of honour on my new desk in my new office. :lol:

Yesterday when we got home I had my Snowman Tree Skirt. I am so excited to stitch it. Then today I got a very nice Christmas card from Agi. Thank you so much.

When I came home from visiting the in-laws, there on the mat were waiting for me:

1) three Ink Circle charts, the three Cirque ones (circles, triangles, squares)
2) Lovely silks from Sew and So -- Dinky Dyes, Thread Gatherer, Kreinik Silk Mori, GlissenGloss Colourwash, Belle Soie
3) More lovely silks (Italian hand-dyed and Thai flat) from Thredfairy (her spelling, not mine...)

My collection is nearing completion! (Well, I've nearly ticked off all types/brands on my list -- but of course there are many more which aren't on my list....)

My final Ink Circles chart has arrived! It is gorgeous, but with all the other charts I've got I think I'll have to do it for our 10th anniversary rather than our 5th...
