so what was in that parcel....


the one that the clerk told me would get there in 5 days... and has actually taken almost 3 weeks? I was almost besides myself with worry, thinking it might be lost... gasp! The parcel was a Quilter's Day Swap for Bobbi at Crafty Vegas Mom and at last it has arrived at Bobbi's house! This is what I made for her...


A needle case with a pocket inside. a zippered pouch and a Cathedral Window pincushion.



I used some of the pretty fabrics I bought recently at the NEC.



and I added a few goodies... there is a box of English Breakfast Tea inside that London fat quarter :) I had the most wonderful email from Bobbi this morning, it really made my day.. I'm sitting here grinning as I type this :)))

Hope everyone is having a great week
Chris :)

What a totally lovely package you prepared for Bobbi! I can imagine how stressed you were worrying about it being lost. So much love and care went into your work, you can clearly see that. Awesome job! Anyone would have been overjoyed to recieve it!

It was the BEST box I've ever opened. I've been using my zip bag and pin cushion. Love love it. You are very thoughtful :) with all my goodies. Can't wait to try the tea.
