With all the flooding around here, and Mother-in-Law breaking her hip (they replaced it yesterday, and she was up walking with the physio today!!!!!) I completely forgot to to tell you my mum is now back from her seven week trip to see my brother in Oz, and she came bearing gifts!
Belated birthday pressies from Brother & S-i-L:
And a 150 piece charm pack from mummy, all near solids from Jenny Beyer.
Both fabric packs are at the stroking-and-fondling stage at the moment - the button box has a whole load of small crafty bits in it
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
Lovely gifts! Glad your Mum is back safe and sound from what must have been an amazing trip!
ReplyDeleteAwesome gifts. I hope mum is healing well.
ReplyDeleteYour mum knows you well Benta, enjoy stroking that fabric :)
ReplyDeleteGotta love mums bearing gifts!
ReplyDeleteThe button box is so fun!
ReplyDeleteLove the button box, and enjoy the fabric. A nice bit of cheer from the awfulness of the weather. Hope that your mother in law makes a good recovery from her hip op. My Mum had an emergency hip op 4 years ago and was up and about in no time. Her recovery went very well and although there are a few things she can't do as well as she used to she does walk very well now
ReplyDeleteLovely prezzies! Glad to hear that your MiL is doing so well. My Dds' ballet teacher had her hip replaced a couple of years ago, and is still teaching a full set of classes - fingers crossed that it will work for your MiL too!
ReplyDeleteCool button box. Always fun to get touchable & strokable presents.
ReplyDeleteYou should send her away more often!
