Opening last year's gift was another gobsmacking moment. This gorgeous creation was made by
Carol and is a stitchery by favourite Australian designer, Bronwyn Hayes.
And of course, the bows on each side undo to reveal more treasures; a needlebook on the left, a scissor keeper on the right & a drawstring bag for threads & stitchery WIPs. Carol is another of our very prolific Club Quilt members & always has something new to show us.
How talented & generous are these women & how lucky have I been to receive such beautiful things for the last three years? Very special.
Now I suppose it is only fair that my next few posts should be about what I GAVE for the last three years! Let me tell you, you have seen the very best, so be prepared for things much more ordinary! I may well even chicken out in the next 24 hours & decide not to show you at all! BUT comparing quality of gifts IS NOT what it's all about is it? ... it's about the spirit of the giving, isn't it? ... see you tomorrow!
