More post for me today! I received another package from a friend and four packets of cardboard bobbins for all my new threads. Now I've got to wind them all on!

Everyone is receiving lovely stash

My order from Sewandso came yesterday. I love the Dragon floss and am looking forward to deciding what projects to stitch with it.



The chart is called Summer Splendour it is only a little design so when I get back to stitching it should stitch up quickly.

[Mabel Figworthy]

How lovely it all is ! I've just placed a special order with Sew & So, they're very helpful about ordering things in -- wonder how long it will take.

[rcperryls]

beautiful colors. You are going to be ready. that looks like a cute little chart. Hope it is soon.

Today the postman brought me goodies I won in a competition I entered in the christmas edition of Cross stitcher magazine. I won 6 madeira metallic threads, a pair of embroidery scissors an embroidery hoop and a colour chart. I am excited I have never won anything before.

Our lovely postie brought me my stash for my brother's wedding sampler and a cover for my new Kindle.

[rcperryls]

on your win. It is so much fun when that happens. I have won a few things this year for the first time and it is such a treat. Congratulations.

I have just had an amazing jam sandwich using Tayberries. Dear Ketta sent me a jar of her Tayberry jam for Christmas. It has arrived in 1 piece, well wrapped in heavy paper and amazingly wasn't opened by customs and or agricultural border control guys. (and gals)

Wow such fun and such an unusual taste. Never heard of them before until Ketta mentioned sometime last year she was setting up an Etsy shop to sell her jams which she loves to make. well done Ketta and thanks a heap. I really enjoyed my lunch.
It will be better tomorrow after it has been in the fridge a while but I couldn't wait to try it. Its been in the low to mid 30's for a few days so was a little warm - but gorgeous still.
