From down under

Now I want to show you what waited for me when I came home from Norway. Lyn put a picture on her blog the other day showing a tin box she had got, I commented on how much I liked it and the next thing I know is that there is one box on its way to Iceland to ME :) and a blue one (chosen by her DH) It was so much fun unpacking the goodies (sorry the pictures are taken in the car I was so excited to open it and I was on my way to work and did NOT want to wait the whole day).

First it was wrapped up in fabric:



When I had taken the fabric and opened the tin box this is what I saw:



I unwrapped this and...



yes another packet, when I had opened that one I saw a "Giggle" button!



Here you can see my beautiful tin boxes:



And here are the fabrics she sent me:



I am so happy and thankful. What a kind and generous lady she is.

As you may have noticed I have not been doing very much lately. Yesterday I managed to finish my Watermelon quilt:

I sprayed it with tea but the effect is not the same as it is when Libby does this, but I am pretty satisfied with the result.

This is what my front yard looks like now:





Not very nice but it is going to be great when finished. So I wait patiently.
