This morning I was such a busy bee. I FINALLY got the tree up. Yes, I only just put it up.... At least I did it! And, I got the binding on ready to stitch down tonight on yesterday's quilt.
My swap parcel finally arrived and it was totally worth the wait! When I got home at 6.30pm yesterday, there was a package waiting for me. I opened the 'tree' gift first and found this cute rusty star. I couldn't decide what to open next, so asked Dennis.... Quick as a flash he said 'tummy'! Typical men lol! Inside that parcel was some Vanilla and Almond Biscotti, not sure if it was made by Chooky? I don't think I have ever tried it before. I am going to try some tonight with a cuppa when I sit down to my binding! Anyway, today I chose to open the 'fun' gift and found 3 little gifts (how spoilt!!). A gorgeous Anni Downs notepad (these are just SO gorgeous), a cute Gutermann tin with thread AND a a cute keyring! Told you I was spoilt! Thanks Chooky, I am loving everything so far!
Below is what I have given Jane so far (pic stolen from Jane as she did a great job taking their pic!!).
1: Tree - ornie
2: Fun - sewing machine USB. How cool are they?!
3. Tummy - Reindeer Noses.
Today I went to High Tea at The Charles with a couple of friends. It was nice to catch up with Leanne before Christmas!
Champagne, Macaroons, scones CAKES... Oh and sandwiches too lol! Was great and SO filling!
