What came in the post today




This lovely needlecase came in the post today.  I won it on a giveaway from Linda  If you click on the link it should take you to the page on her blog where she has described it.  The stitching is so precise and I love the inside of it too.


As well as the needlecase, Linda included a lovely lavender bag, all wrapped up in gold wrapping paper which will definitely go into my stash - it is like a very large lolly paper!  Thank you so much Linda.
I am amazed at how well I am able to move around so soon after the hernia repair.  I am upstairs in the office, I even managed to climb the stairs the day after surgery - very slowly I admit - and hanging on to the bannister, but I made it!  I don't plan to run around the block, but I managed to walk from the carpark to the supermarket this morning to replenish the groceries, aided(?) by my husband who is a very unwilling shopper, but he was glad to come today.  I am sure I will be back to almost normal activities by next weel.  Yippee!

  3. So nice to see your parcel arrived safely Robin, and you are happy with it. I love that 'flimsy' gold paper, and might try to see if it foils [???]. Great to hear you are up and around, but don't overdo it, slowly, slowly.
