September.

 September has been a awesome month, not only did we spend 25 days of it in America, it was also my birthday and  just last week I had my 2nd design published in the October edition of Patchwork and stitching magazine, which is in newsagents now.   Vol 14 No. 9   I am so thrilled to see my design in print, the photography looks amazing,.
 I designed 4 stitched christmas tags. I love to do stitchery and these cute little tags are so much fun to make.
 I hope you like them to.
 When we arrived home from our holiday I came home to so much wonderful mail.  I received some beautiful gifts from my friend Anthea, Look at that cute bird and the cross stitch pin cushion is so delicate and pretty. Anthea also sent me the cutest tin of pins.
 My lovely friend Wendy made me a gorgeous framed stitchery and a crocheted pin cushion, its so soft and cute. I love the way Wendy painted the frame, Thankyou
And finally my lovely  penfriend Stephany  who lives in Belgium made me these 3 beautiful tilda whales, they are just the sweetest little things. I have them set up in my bathroom and kind of have a beach theme going on in there.


So there you have it, I'm a very lucky lady to have such wonderful and talented friends, thank you so much.

Have a great day, I hope to do some more sewing later today. I have started working on my christmas swap gifts.
