Stitching news
I have received a beautiful surprise gift in the mail from Jane, a lady whom I sent a random act of kindness to at the beginning of the year. Jane has sent me a lovely mail art with some delicious threads to match. I am unable to post a photo yet as I am trying to edit the personal address details off the photograph and I am unsure how to do it.
Thankyou Jane for this wonderful surprise!
I have also received a photograph from Connie who has made a lovely biscornu from one of my patterns, I shall show that in my next post.
Talking of surprises ( well, not a total surprise because I gave him the list of choices) I received this Country Cottage Needleworks Pattern from my son for Mother's Day today, I cannot wait to start stitching this!
Thankyou for visiting and leaving such wonderful encouraging comments, I really appreciate them all.
Happy Stitching!
Such a wonderful finish, love all the personal touches you gave it.

Lynn,
ReplyDeleteThis is a really incredibly lovely finish. You have made an excellent job of finishing it. It's such a pretty design and your finish makes it look stunning. I love it on this pale linen, the red against the cream gives it a crispness and a wonderfully wintery feel.
What a pretty CCN chart from your son. It will make your mouth water just to stitch it. My daughter treated me to real cake on Mother's Day - we went out for a cream tea :-)
With ref to your mailart. When we store photos on your computer can you right click on them and find an edit section? It's so long since I had my PC but, I remember there was a kind of paintbrush where you could erase things like personal details. Failing that, just re photograph your mailart covering your address with a tiny piece of paper :>) I hope that helps.
Warm wishes Angela xx
