Despite increasing postal costs, at Needlecraft Haven we still continue to participate in seasonal exchanges. It is lovely that I can take part as it increases my sense of belonging to a stitching community.
I received this lovely selection of gifts from Gill (no blog). With my sweet tooth, it goes without saying that the chocolate didn't last long.
A close up of my exchange ornament to Clare.
I also sent Clare two Santa ornaments for her church Christmas tree. It was my first time stitching on perforated paper and it was easier than I expected. For some reason I imagined that it would tear easily. Thankfully it didn't. These are both free designs; Santa Cookie Small can be found on Shannon Christie Designs Instagram page and the Santa on the right is from Durene Jones's Facebook page.
I think I might be back to stitching regularly again.
Glad to hear that the exchanges are still going on. Both received and sent peices are lovely, as are your 🎅
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking part in our Autumn Exchange, your ornament from Gill is lovely and my ornament is perfect to add to my autumn collection, thank you. Thanks too for the two Santas, very cute. I'll make them up soon.
