Goodies in the mail

My partner, Vivian, for the BBInteractive ornament exchange sent me a fabulous box of goodies. First, the ornament she stitched is just beautiful. It's done in Hardanger, a technique I have never tried and am frankly, quite afraid of. So I'm happy to have a nice example to treasure. Here is the photo sitting on top of the beautiful decorated box that contained it plus some extras:



The bottom of the box is padded with a lovely stitched design of an angel with my initial from the half-doll alphabet found here.



And the inside contained 3 skeins of floss and some beads in coordinating colors, plus a teeny thimble charm and a pad of Mary Englebreit stickies. I love stickies!



Thank you so much, Vivian! I'm just spoiled by all this fun stuff!

Awesome exchange.

You can do Hardanger. It looks a lot harder than it is. I promise!
