Woohoo I got spoiled.

Today I received my Spring Quaker exchange from Edgar from the SBEBB. I am so blessed! He made me this gorgeous pinkeep with lace edging and he truely spoiled me by sending me three charts off my wishlist, four threads, some lovely fabric and a tin of altoids!! The charts are: LHN Coffee Menu, Sampler Cove's Grace Quaker Sampler and Ink Circles' Quackworth. I have been looking for altoids to get the tin so I can make something with it but not been able to find any over here. Now I just need to find a little design to put on it. I'll also need to find some finishing instructions too. Thank you so much Edgar. I am thrilled!

  1. Oh, Hazel, Edgar did a wonderful stitch for you. It's so pretty. I love the colors. Did he tell you what threads he used? I'd love to know.

    WOW what a stunning exchange! You are so lucky!!!!

    I found Altoids at Morrisons supermarket on the sweetie aisle! 99p for a tin, they are just the plain mint variety but with the tin at least I don't suppose it matters :)

    Email me if you can't find them and I can see if I can pick you up a couple of tins :)

  6. What a beautiful stitch. I agree the color is stunning.
    And those patterns - no wonder you can't decide what to stitch first!

  8. Wow you were spoiled!! What a lovely pinkeep and everything else is wonderful!

    I found the Altoids mints in one of the chemists here. I've never seen them anywhere before so was really surprised.
