Lucky me!

Hi everyone

Last week I was lucky enough to win a giveaway over at Chalky's World - and today, during a very difficult day at work I was so chuffed to receive this lovely parcel of goodies - beautifully wrapped:


And in just my sort of colours too!

This is what the first parcel contained, the photo doesnt really do them justice, the detail on these little buttons is amazing:


 More buttons, with amazing butterfly and dragon fly shapes included amongst many others:


I love all things heart-themed, just look as these little sweeties:


Then this fantastic hand made notebook, complete with fabric heart on the front:  the cover is made from handmade paper too.  Sadly the light isnt great for taking photos, but there are little fronds of fern in the handmade paper



And then look what emerged next - a vintage crochet book!  Published at about the time I started crocheting, 1969



And just look at these fabulous crocheted wrist warmers (kindly modelled by my daughter)



Linda has really gone to a lot of trouble to check out my blog to see what I like,  Thanks so so much Linda for your kindness in sending all these wonderful goodies to me.
