Surprise and coincidence
I just got the prettiest Christmas card from Sally, together with a lovely long letter -- thank you so much! Here is the card:
That was the surprise -- and this is the coincidence: here is the card again, this time with an ornament I made some years ago and which is on our Christmas tree at this moment

Re: Surprise and coincidence
Both are beautiful! And very clever of Sally to know what design you would love and stitch that one for the card!

Re: Surprise and coincidence
They are lovely, and how lovely the same design looks on two different fabrics.

Re: Surprise and coincidence
I am totally amazed at this. As I wrote to you I have no idea where the design came from and now I know.
Love your ornament on its pretty fabric with the gorgeous edging.
Still shaking my head at this. My Grandfather often said "there is nothing new under the sun" and I agree.
So glad it got there safely.

Re: Surprise and coincidence
I think I got it from a second-hand magazine; there were two or three different ones, and I made two ornaments with them. It was lovely to see your whit-on-blue version which I seem to remember is how they were originally intended -- and it looks so crisp and fresh in its white card!
