Wow, thank you so much Grace Horton from Arizona, Needles, Pins and Dragonflies.
A beautiful sewing box, with the most amazing embroidery on the top, inside the box is lined.
Grace included a calendar of desert blooms, a pattern, some buttons, a pen and a magnet from Arizona, and some ricrac.
Oh and a bag of fabric from Sun City.
I am truly blessed.
Huge warm Christmas hugs to Grace.
Last night had a bit of a storm, it gave us 36mm, what an excellent Christmas present. Only drawback was the fences across the creek, that hold the horses in, got washed away.
Here are some shorts I made for my grandsons, the first ones I made the other week were to small. Sure hope these ones fit.
Hete is the minion I crocheted for my five year old grandson, only thing in the rush to mail him away I forgot to embroider his mouth, will have to do it when I next visit.
Look at this lovely package that I received, so many pretties, a cute little kiwi, beautiful fabric, a cat magnet and a cat ornament and tissues with cats, as well as a calendar of New Zealand.
Thank you to my secret partner in Gisborne.

Look what arrived today ...... my new quilting iron. I mainly only iron my quilting blocks, etc, hardly ever clothes, usually buy ones that do not require ironing lol.
But this little beauty, has legs/feet that stand up if you leave it down on the ironing board.
Cannot wait to use it.
