Yesterday I had a package arrive from America. Always a treat - a BIG, HUMUNGOUS treat getting one of those.
Anyway, it was from Elizabeth. I opened it pretty darn fast, I can tell you, and inside was a well wrapped package (not like you see it below as I didn't wait long to unwrap it)!!!!! Originally it was neatly wrapped but that's what happens when an old git gets excited!!!
Well the reason I couldn't wait to see it was because of the first sentence in the card (complete with tatted motifs!) which said:-
"I was browsing on the internet one day and came across this fabric. The first thing that came to mind was 'Jane'".
Naturally I was VERY curious. This is what was inside. Did you notice the dear buttons on the ribbon too?
I've a feeling it'll have to be a bag of some sort - well, that is my other 'career' (bag making)!!!!!
Actually (after the kiwi - see, I haven't forgotten Maureen!!) I may have to make a sheep now!!!!! That's one of the 'missing animals' on my pattern page!!!!!
Thank you so much, Elizabeth - you really know how to keep me out of mischief!!!
