Back from a lovely holiday - part 1.

Always exciting to come home after a long holiday. The post box was really filled up. My DS had the job of picking up the mail. The post box had been filled up. Most important was the 3 big envelopes and some magazines..... love big envelopes in the mail .....
1. A new BOM from Lynette`s shop in Australia. Beautiful fabrics and pattern. Looking forward to be starting soon or should I decide to make up "old" BOMs first? Very difficult for me not to get carried away when I see something I would like to have on my wall ...LOL... must work on saying no! :-)

2. Such a lovely present from Melanie in England,who together with Ulla in Finland arranged the Scandinavian Christmas sew-along. Can you see the sweet card with rein deers as well as the churn dash tray for the cookies. And soon I`ll to be drinking the hot chocolate using the lovely coaster, promising not to spill anything on it! Thanks a lot both of you  :-)
3. Great envelope with presents from Margaret in Gee long in Australia,containing  items for my 2 grand children as well as a lovely beaded book mark for me. AND such a lovely daisy photo-card  taken by Chookyblue. My 2 Gch are still on holiday,looking forward give them the different things when they come home. Thanking you so much,Margaret! Love it all :-)

More from me very soon, Hugs,Grethe.

Looks like a lovely mail day. Sometimes the good things come in threes. Enjoy the hot chocolate with the gingerbread crumbs!

What lovely post to come home to. So glad you liked the SC. Ulla and I had a lot of fun collaborating on it. We wanted to give you lovely ladies a little Christmas in July experience. You really deserve the reward after so much hard work.

Welcome home Grethe.
