Now I Can Share

Received word today that  my friend, Karen,
received her Christmas gift and has opened it.
So, now I can share what I sent to her:


















A journal cover stitched with her initial using
Michelle's "Stitcher's Alphabet".  (journal
included)  Michelle was kind enough to include
a small free pattern which I made into a bookmark.


















I also tried my hand at crocheting a spool pin
doily. Have fallen in love with these little
doilies and think they are fun to make.


















This little snowman was also a freebie from
Michelle and has also been received by
another friend, so I can now share it. 


















Hopefully, I'll be able to share a few more gifts
that have kept me busy over the past few weeks
as they are given to friends and family

  1. Your stitchery gifts are lovely - great idea to make the bookmark to go with the journal cover. I like your crochet doiley as well.

  2. Love how beautifully you have used my Alphabet and the bookmark is a wonderful idea. I am thrilled to see Winter Mate all stitched up and made into a lovely gift. Hugs Michelle x
