Pressies for Me!

Well another year has started and seems to be going just as fast as the last one!  I received some lovely gifts, unfortunately the postman must have been extra busy because I didn't receive them for Christmas Day - everybody say "ah",

Here are my gifts from Karen in Australia 

Yummy chocolate biscuits, a lovely ornament and see that pattern,click here to see it on Karen's blog, it's just beautiful, and she also sent some Cottage Garden Threads which I have never seen before.

Thank you Karen, the Teddy Bear chocolate biscuits didn't last long!

And in the New Year (yes that's how long I had to wait for this one - almost six weeks) my Christmas present from my BFF Diane in Canada FINALLY arrived

Hmmm just noticed there is a "blurred" bit on the photos, opps seems my lens needed cleaning, and I can't take another picture because ..err...the chocolate has been eaten...sorry Diane.  So many other gifts, fabric, pattern, buttons, pot holder, Christmas ornament ............ 

 Here is a better picture of my lovely little quilt

Diane has quilted all around the centre heart and it really "pops" 

Thank you so much I love ALL my gifts.

Now while you are feeling sorry for me because I didn't get my gifts in time for Christmas I am going to sneak in another giveaway I won.......

I was the lucky winner of 10 FQs of Penguin Pals and the panel (love that panel) from Jacque at lilypadquilting  follow this link and see what Jacque won....it may take the heat of me for a bit LOL. 

Thank you Jacque .

Hugs Linda
