a gorgeous present..........

Lisa from Cubby House Crafts had a blog celebration recently and I was once of the lucky winners with Jo at Lilly Pilly..............we both received beautiful gifts...........
a zipper purse pouch..........
and these beautiful journal covers (pouch)...........
it is so nice when you receive a gift hand made...........to be able to appreciate and treasure the time and effort of the crafter..........
Thanks so much Lisa I love them both.............and the perfect colour - blue
such a beautiful phrase 
"good friends are like quilts they never lose their warmth"
Lisa has become a great online friend and it is wonderful to have a gift from her.
Catch you later..............

Beautiful gifts.
I enjoyed your stitching tutorial. Interesting to see how others do things ... I always use a hoop or frame. Can't get my tension right without one. Will have to try your knotless method ... I only do this for cross-stitch. Bye.

Good to hear that you're enjoying 'Masterchef' at your house too. Everything has to be done in our home before it comes on so we can all sit and enjoy it! LOL.
