♥♥♥♥♥♥
I'm glad to show you a couple of gifts I received from two of my good friends. Look at all these beauties.
This is from Nicole,
This one is from dear baby sis Winnie (I call her baby sis as I consider her as my younger sister). She got a new hobby which is decoupage and thought of making a letter box for me. How nice and thoughtful of her. Is it too obvious that she knew I love roses?! I'm going to have it displayed in my tiny craft room.
As I have shown you on my previous post, my completed Dear To Me sampler. Like those who have purchased this chart, mine is also a gift for a dear friend.
As I have yet to show you what I made it into, so here it is.
Dear To Me" Stitcher's Wallet
I made it into a stitcher's wallet, a simple one. I used two printed fabrics and strips of ribbon. A bi-fold wallet which has a pocket inside and a ribbon to hold threads, fabric, chart, etc. A silver clasp (use in jewelry making) to close it. This could be a great travel companion for stitchers who bring their project with them anywhere they go.Thought this will be a perfect gift for her. I really hope she likes it.
