I received not 1 but 2 parcels today.
One came from The Netherlands from Annemarie Look at the beautiful things that she has stitched for me, my very first Biscornu, Annemarie has told me that its a Belgian design.
Also in my package was this lovely origami bag I can use for my bits and bobs, its been stitched on 35ct linen and the designs were taken from DMC book Houses and Gardens, its beautifully made.Also it doesn't end there, there was some pretty fabric and some green apple tea - which I have never tried before, so I will give it a whirl. - Thankyou so much my dear friend you have really spoiled me.
The next package came from Anita and again I have been incredibly spoiled, inside was some lovely pieces of stitching fabric - 1 of the pieces is the right shade and count for me to stitch Busy bee (With my needle), also there were some thread rings from Kelmscott- which I have wanted for so long, some DMC thread, some pretty stork scissors and a needle threader. - Thankyou Anita you are such a generous friend.
Haven't I got some lovely stitching friends, I wasn't expecting anything from anyone (well perhaps from Helen and mum), and I am overwhelemed by everyones generosity and friendship - Hope that doesn't sound gushy, but if you were all here I would just give you all a hug. ((((HUG)))) - LOL!!!
I see Annemarie has tagged me too, so I will make a seperate posting with my answers when I have had a think.

Awesome gifts you have received! Since I have become a part of the "Stitching Family" I have been amazed at the kindness of other stitchers. I started off with a small box of stuff to stitch with and now I actually have a small stash because of the wonderful stitching friends!!!
Goodness me aint you so spoilt :-)) Your stitched gifts and the finishing fabrics are so lovely from Annemarie, I knew some of what she was doing ;-)
I also think your gifts from Anita are fab, pretty colour linens and the threads and all the extras...you are very lucky :-)) Enjoy it all!!
Happy birthday, Su, you deserve such presents !!! (though I'm a bit jealous .... giggle ;-))
