Ok. This will be a short post since it is my busy time of year. I'm sure it is your busy time also. I am happy to report that I have finished my 2023 Blackwork SAL! Yes, you read that right. I finished the stitching. It's not put together or anything because I'm not sure if it will be a pillow or wall hanging or whatever.
Since this seems to be a picture day, let me include some more. I have been so blessed this month by friends who have sent me goodies. Let me share some of the pictures with you.
First up is a gift from my friend Susan. See those two new needle minders I get to add to my collection? I just LOVE the idea of a needle minder in the shape of embroidery floss. She knows me so well!
Speaking of knowing me, another friend sent me a box full of goodies. What I am showing you is not all of it! I can't believe Ann took the time to wrap everything up. She made one mistake though. She didn't put a note that says do not open until Xmas so I went ahead and opened up all those small packages.
Also in the bx was a cute sewing kit. I really liked that it had a hard case to it so it should be good to carry around.
Isn't this a cute candle? I just love candles and it has been a pain not to light it up yet. I know I could but I'm trying to save it until Christmas day.
And no stocking is complete without a selection of goodies. I might be able to resist lighting up the candle right now, but I couldn't resist eating the cookies and most of the bag of marshmallows. LOL.
There was some fabric and other things in the box but I might share them with you another day. Speaking of sharing, did I show you the block I sent for the December exchange? If so, then sorry to posting it twice. I'm sure you'll forgive me. :)
I thought this was a good block for December. I have to now sign off and get back to work on the things that I still need to mail out. I hope everybody has a great day!
