I was fortunate to get a number of fabulous gifts for my birthday, which was in January.
Julie topped up my fabric supply with some mini Pearl bracelets plus a couple of other pieces (far right) that were used as wrapping. I have an idea for the teal Art Gallery Round Elements.
There were other gifts as well. I can always use cards (also from Julie) as I send a lot of them out to friends. Mary gave me a couple of packs of continuous zipper tape while Tim found a wild button pouch that is super unique.
You know I like paper folding. The origami paper might help me finish the Mette Rings I started as a Fair entry last year (?)
Recently, I received a lovely bunch of gifts from Carrie, both Christmas and birthday at the same time as we haven’t been able to get together. Carrie has been experimenting with Kraftex and I am always excited to see what she has made. I was fortunate enough to receive a pouch (upper right) and a business card holder. I have also been reading about Kraftex in the book she gave me and am planning a journal cover or two.
I bullied, a little, Carrie into making journal covers for composition books as raffle prizes. I wanted people to have something to make notes on at guild meetings. I was the fortunate recipient of a composition book and cover, too!
I received a few other things, which was very nice. The best was the calls, cards, and messages from far flung friends and family. Thank you!
