I am not happy with my stitching for this exchange. Not happy at all, no, Precious, I'm not. :x Am having a long think about how to finish it.

Edit: Much happier now. :D :D Hope to get it into the post this weekend.

So pretty! I missed being in this exchange. Hoping that life will be a bit less hectic (and stitchy bug returns) for the next one.

I first wanted to apolige to everyone for how lax I have been with this exchange. All I can really say is that life really gets in the way sometimes. It doesn't help that somehow my pea brain had it set that the date for this was July 6. So there's that to lol

So without further ado here is the beautiful book mark from Wendy Wombat. The shipping took a while but it arrived safe and sound and I love it!!!!

:whoop: :whoop: It got there!! I did wonder!

So pleased that you like it. It was designed by a previous member of the CSF Lady Kell. I contacted her and asked if she minded me changing the colours from the original black. As they were Spring lambs they 'needed Spring Colours!
