Hello everyone, I have a number of pictures to show you, the first is the lovely exchange that Yana sent me from Russia. I received this a couple of weeks ago but I did not post a picture because I thought I could post pictures of the exchange I sent to Yana at the same time.We sent them on the same day and it is now five weeks since I sent my exchange and she still has not received it yet, to say I am really worried is an understatement! I would be so upset if she did not receive it, I put a lot of work into the exchange and I made quite a few pieces. 

Has anyone sent anything to Russia lately and it has taken a couple of months to get there? If so please could you let me know, at least it would make me feel better!   

I have started to make the exchange again, just in case it does not get there, but it is pretty annoying to have to do that. 

I have also made another blue box similar to the one I made for Gladys in a recent exchange, although this one has a slightly different design, it is a birthday gift for a friend. It is very similar to what I have stitched before, but my friend likes blue and I did not have any other blue fabric.      

Here is a close up of the gorgeous biscornu that Yana made, it is just beautiful!

        

The stitching is perfect!

Including the beautiful needlebook and the scissor fob.

I just love these little dolls that fit inside each other!

Thankyou Yana for a lovely exchange, you are so talented! 

I hope you get your exchange soon. 

Happy Birthday Diane, I hope you have a good one!
