I won the lovely Emma's give away, and yesterday I was stunned by the contents of a little package that was pushed through my door. Now if I had known who occupied this package I would have been straight outside to the postie to rap his knuckles for squeezing him through my letterbox.....Let me introduce......
He is exquisite, beautifully made, and presented in such an original way, (Badger in a bag). I am over the moon with him. In fact when I entered my comment to be put in the draw I even stated he would be given to my grandson who is having this woodland themed room. But the truth is I don't want to part with him, so he is staying with me for the foreseeable future!!
The attention to detail and the neatness of the makeup is fabulous. Just look at that little bag and his knitted jumper!! I like to think that I take a pride in my sewing, particularly in the things I make to sell, but this is awesome.
And of course he wasn't the only treasure to fill my parcel....I also received these beautiful crocheted table mats....
And this pretty little pack of fabric trim and buttons, which I will take great pleasure in finding a suitable project for...
So thank you so much Emma, this really was a lovely surprise. (Even my DH is quite taken with him) .
Right off to celebrate his adoption with a wee glass, Cheers for now.....

ReplyDeleteHello there I have been reading your blog for a long time and then was reminded of your lovely work room when I linked to it on the Mollie Makes newsletter. Can I ask you did you buy the lovely storage units complete with the plastic boxes or were you just lucky that the boxes fitted ?and where did you get them from. I have just started to have a go at the felting and am loving it.
