I would have moaned that it was all rubbish, just leaflets, but I got cards from Lizzy and Sarah as well for TOF's, so that made it well worth the postman's visit after all!
Thank you both, they're wonderful!!

I received my order from Sew and So today of 4 skeins of DMC variations, 3 packs of antique seed beads and 2 14ct aida packs,one in a stone dyed colour and the other a DMC impressions aida pack with pretty pastel butterflies printed on it, which is for a special,future project, but I haven't settled on the design yet
Well not the postperson, but a friend. She came for lunch today and gave me a belated birthday gift of a Wiehenburg chart, Quaker Circle
It is,of course,a lovely gift, but especially so when you consider she's not a stitcher and I hadn't dropped her any hints. She'd researched it all herself, asked me a few subtle questions (I don't even recall her asking!) and chosen the chart for me.
I'm so touched. That's thoughtfulness!

I got two Bucilla felt kits from E-bay. They are tree ornaments for Christmas. I thought that I'd do them as stocking fillers for the grown-ups in the family. They are lovely.
