In the mail today!

I recently participated in my very first craft swap, Maree's Redwork Cushion Swap - I'm part of a birthday fat 1/4 swap this year, but this was my first swap where you have to make something. It was a lot of fun! I hope my own cushion arrives safely to it's recipient soon.

But today MY partner was revealed - Janice from Jannimary, and looked at my parcel of gorgeous goodies! I was only expecting a cushion, but she blessed me with other beautiful gifts as well. What a sweetheart she is!!

She must know I *love* Maxwell & Williams items because she sent me beautiful M & W rose serviettes, as well as this totally cute M & W Elephant egg cup! I shall treasure it always, Janice. I am quite partial to soft boiled eggs with steamed asparagus soldiers or vegemite toast soldiers! I think I'll have that for brekkie tomorrow, and follow with those yummy Lindt chocolates you sent. Mmmmm.


And how beautiful is the cushion itself! Such beautiful stitches, Janice, and with a message I live by! :-)

There was also something very special added to my cushion - Janice collects vintage buttons and there are FOUR on the back of my cushion. I adore vintage things, so I was given an extra special blessing with these buttons.


I am always blown away by the generosity and kindness of fellow quilters and stitchers...such big hearts.
Thanks Janice. :-)

Hugs
Jenny

PS: Only 16 hours until I share Shabby Roses block 3!! Did I mention I'm in Australia so it will be an early gift for all those in other parts of the world.
