I recently joined a swap with Elizabeth of
the theme was "Buttons and Bows"
which really appealed to me!
Imagine my excitement
when her parcel arrived!
I think Elizabeth must have
guessed one of my passions is lace!
(apologies for the poor quality of this photo)
I think this piece of lace
is traditional Bretagne
(I'm hoping Elizabeth
can confirm this).
For me to have a piece of
"hand made French lace"
is my idea of 'heaven'!!!
I'm saving it for a
very special project.
Don't you just love
this sweet little Peter Pan collar.
One of my other favourite things
is baby clothes.
I'm saving this for another
'very special project'
that's already forming
in my head!!
All these amazing goodies
I'm "over the moon"
but wait there's more!
a great selection of buttons
to use in the cards, books
and bags I make!
Also these colourful ribbons and...
a needlekeep.
Elizabeth, how did you know
I needed one of these!!
Maybe you read my
recent embroidery post!!!!
More embroidery goodies!!
A little Gutermann set
to take when I'm travelling!!
Thank you so much

for me to open!!
