Awhile back I joined a pincushion swap organized by
Linda at All Stitched Up. On Saturday evening, I received some happy mail! It was from
Nadine all the way in Belgium! (I also received a package from
Kim that I will blog about soon!)
I was so excited that I could hardly wait to get inside before ripping open my packages!
This is what I found!
She stitched everything by hand....can you believe it?? I am so impressed! I love the colors!
Just have a look at this needle bag! Isn't it beautiful?? This is going in my stitching bag right away!
Thank you so much, Nadine. I cannot be more pleased with my new pincushion and needle bag. :):):)
Sometimes I would click on some of the participants links on Linda's blog and try to guess who was making a pincushion for me! Nadine was listed just below my swap partner,
May Kristin from Norway. I always visited her, but she didn't know it! I am glad she made mine...it's perfect!
