In The Mail

Last week Bonnie did a quick little tutorial on a burp cloth made with a dish cloth, and this is what she showed on her blog (photo borrowed with permission from Bonnie). Now you've got to know that I think it's just adorable.

And (yes I know I shouldn't start a sentence with and) it arrived in my letter box this week, all beautifully wrapped. I'm going to re-wrap it in it's tissue paper for Hollie to open. Thank you so much Bonnie, I think it's just gorgeous and I'm sure Hollie will too.

Vikki and I have been exchanging emails for a few weeks now and she very sweetly sent me a copy of this Aussie magazine and a lovely little bag, filled with Barley Sugars (Australian sweets/candies) and chocolates. I'd forgotten how good Barley Sugars tasted, I think I need to find an Aussie store in the US to buy them from. Thank you Vikki for such a sweet parcel.

I've been working madly on more baby items and will be back next week with a few finishes.
Happy Stitching.

What wonderful friends - and gifts, Linda! That is probably the most stylish burp cloth I've ever seen! I also love the little bag!
Cheers!

These creations are adorable ... one fancy baby in haute couture designs ... chuckle. Great job, lucky child.

Happy May Day down under.
