Oh lala!!!!

I had received a lovely gift last week from my dear friend Domy. She emailed me beforehand and told me that a parcel for me is on its way. I can't wait to see it as I know she is such a talented and creative person, and a pro-finisher. OMG, just what I expected, I love everything she made for me. If I have to describe her pressies in one word, then it's "PERFECT"!! I like them all so much.
She knew what my likes are, she made a lovely bag, a cartonnage "sewing case", a Lili Points chart, and other goodies. I've tasted the tea called Pacific Star and the biscuits also in the parcel and both taste really good!
The Lili Point chart is "Chocolate", the English version. I am excited to start with it.
She also added a floss which has a very nice color variations in it. She spoiled me big time! hehehe...
The "Sewing Case" she made is so pretty, very well done. She used a blue fabric (my fave color), every detail is just fab!
As you can see in the photo, there are threads, a pair of scissors, a needleminder and a fabric. Wonder what those threads and fabric are for? She's very nice and generous, she kitted the "Chocolate" chart for me. As what she mentioned in her message in the card, "All you have to do is stitch". YES, exactly!! How very nice of her!
I equally like the shoulder bag she made especially for me. She said it's a last minute gift, she really is a PRO as it is absolutely lovely.
I'm now a proud owner of all these beauties. I will definitely treasure it. Merci beaucoup, Domy!!!! I'm deeply grateful. I knew all these were made with love, I appreciate it so much.
On stitching side, I don't have any progress on my WIP. But I have prepared a small gift for Nicole. She emailed me last week, and informed me that it had safely arrived. As you might have already read on my previous post, she sent me a lovely Chatelaine chart. To show how delighted and thankful I am for her gift, I made a Floss Keeper/Tag and a humbug scissorfob .
This humbug scissorfob was my second finish for this design. I've designed it last year and called it "Blooming Roses", and first finished it as a biscornu scissorfob but I only stitched the roses. You can see a photo of my finish of this chart as a biscornu scissorfob here.
If I'm not mistaken, I think I forgot to share this chart "Blooming Roses" with you. So here it is, click the picture to download it.
Also last week, I received an award from Maria for "Virtual Friendship and information sharing!" Thanks so much Maria.
I'm passing this award to Carla. Eventhough she doesn't know me, and had just came across my blog and shop just recently, she trusted me and my work and purchased a Flosskeeper/tag. Thank you so much Carla!![]()

I couldn't forget to pay you a visit. I love your blog, you are such a kind friend and I love to see the beautiful things you blog here.
First of all, I want to thank you (again) for stitching my lovely flosskeeper. I have showed it to all of my friends and they just loved. It's delicacy and acurated finishing are splendid! I really loved it.
I also want to thank you for the award! WOW!!! So nice! It is my first "international award"! hahaha! Very meanful and even more because it was you who gave me it. I want to give you a big thank you with all my heart!
And, hey what a incredible gift Domy gave you! The bag, the cartonnage box, the sewing case! She is really generous and such an artist in finishing technics. Everything is so perfect! But, you know... you are such a lovely person that you do deserve pretty gifts. I almost went to Domy's to give her some congrats for the excelent job. But I am too shy... So, please, when you talk to her, give my congrats. And, please, please, use your "you-just-have-to-stitch" kit. You create lovely things, and, now, with such a beautiful organizer and so on, you'll be even a more outstanding stitcher!
Lovely hugs!
