LOOK WHAT POSTMAN JOHN BROUGHT ME .....

 Before Postman John went off on his two week holiday in the sun he brought me these lovely packages.

 These lovely buttons came from Diana of Velvet Moth Studio after I sent her an article I had seen in a magazine that I thought would interest her.

  Then my lovely friend Mo in Scotland, Mo's Flickr site, sent me a crotchet doily to include in my embroidery work.  Look at the great tape on the envelope and this fabulous handmade card.

Have a look here to see what I did with the butterfly and a piece of the doily.

LYNN HOLLAND IN STITCH

I  have to show you this bundle of trims I got from the indoor market in Rochdale, Lancashire.

The town gets a lot of flak for being its lack of shops and market stalls but I have to say anyone who wants haberdashery make straight for this stall.

Postman John was busy over Easter ...

My friend Mo sent me this handmade Easter card along with a nice piece of vintage linen for me to use in my course work. Also a card from one of our favourite artists Carolyn Saxby of St. Ives.

Olivia and Jacob made these two lovely cards

 

 Then another envelope appeared from Mo in the form of a card and a piece of art she had been working on with wax crayons.

 

Ive hung it on my art line in my studio. Its the one with the peg on it, sitting beautifully between the art cards from the 10+ Textile Group

Mo's wax art and 10+ Plus Textile Group card

John didn't bring these, nor did he get to eat one. 
They are from my very talented neighbour Amy.

yes I did take a bite out of one of them.
