Now I'm stitching

Another piece of stitching that has been in my hoop is block one of Jenny of Elefantz delightful BOM Vintage Kitchen. (The really cute little packet of needles was a Christmas gift from Jenny, it is so sweet.)

 I am a huge fan of Jenny's designs and we are all really, really lucky as she is sharing it with us for free.  This year Jenny is asking us to join her on a
and I, for one, am really looking forward to journeying along with Jenny on this new adventure.
I was really lucky to win this delightful pattern from Kris at Lavender Quilts.  Thank you so much, Kris.  I am really looking forward to stitching it.
I wanted to show you two more of my Santa Sack goodies from Sandi at Forevermoore
I told you I was spoilt.  Thank you so much Sandi for another gift I will always treasure.

As soon as I saw this beautiful vintage hanky apron tutorial I thought of Jenny and her Year of Gentle Domesticity and I also thought you, my lovely blogworld friends, might like it too.
So here is the LINK to featured on fabulous Skip to My Lou.  It is designed and made by Bev at Flamingo Toes.  Thank you so much to Bev and Cindy for sharing it with us.
Today I'm thinking of all my lovely friends in South Australia where they are still fighting terrible bush fires,
Take care
Love
