How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. Or instead I could count the packages that he managed to squeeeeeze through my letter box today
Firstly came a fab, very squishy surprise from the lovely Plum: she ran a session at the Richmond and Kew quilters on Monday making chickens. I had planned to go, but in the end too much real life got in the way, and I had to pull out. Plum took pity on me, and sent me everything I need to make my own chicken!
And then the next package was my Give Away winnings from Lis's blog: a package from Keira at Kiki's Craft Corner. I had left it to Kiki to choose me a charm pack, and I bought from her a metre of a contrasting fabric that I could use for sashing. I love the warm colours in the charm pack (Moda's Cattails and Clover) and the extra fabric is gorgeous - plain enough not to detract from the patterns in the charms, and mottled enough not to be plain. (I think I need to revisit the website to get some more of this range!)
Actually, much as I love my postie for bringing the squishies, I need to paraphrase another cliche: dont
Hmm, think my postie is avoiding me - he didn't bother coming today! Too busy with you x
ReplyDeleteWow, stunning fabric from Keira and a great squichy from Plum, a good day for you all round :-)
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure! So that's two MORE projects?!? Hope that the finishing list is balancing them up!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely postman you have! I love the charm squares
ReplyDeleteSo, patchwork draft excluder is it? Or perhaps it's an extra large draft excluding chicken... ;o)
