Now you know how I love Christmas, so following my little shopping expedition to The Christmas Shop in Maldon, I also added these gorgeous handmade goodies from Keryn -
This very, very cute roly poly Santa. And there's more as you knew there would be -
Of course I had to have Snowy too.
And Keryn sent me this gorgeous tree on a cinnamon stick. Thankyou Keryn - love my new goodies - you are so, so talented.
Lots of parcels coming and going here, as I know there are with lots of you. Can't wait until I can open them.
Now I showed you my gorgeous wooden snowman decoration from Dagmar, my swap partner in Chooky's SSCS, in my last post (which I just loved), but she emailled me and said there was another, which I've now opened and it will hang beautifully on my tree with other handmade decorations from special friends -
Love it, thankyou Dagmar.
And on Friday a parcel arrived from Leanne (lizziethequilter.blogspot) who was my partner in Cheryll's Santa Sack swap -
How lucky am I with this gorgeous bag Leanne made for - so lovely and roomy, will be great for shopping and/or a day's stitching. And in lovely French General fabrics. Thankyou so much Leanne for spoiling me, and I just love my bag. These yummy looking parcels came with it, and I'm just going to have to be patient until opening day -
I'm trying not to squish and feel them too much.
And these were posted off to my secret partner in Suzanne's (Colorado Lady blog) swap. Mmm wonder who they are for?
Have a great week. Cheryl
