Leena sent me this pretty pinkeep. It is amazing. Leena does such beautiful work. She stitched a freebie from The Gift of Stitching using that wonderful DMC 115, and it is finished so perfectly! Thank you so much Leena!
And, Joke sent me this super sweet little floss ring tag. She says it is only her second one, but she felt it was a nice gesture to send it to me. I guess that is because I sent her a pack of eyelets and a setting tool when I read in the Crazy Exchange group that she wanted to try this technique out... it is the sweetest little thing from the sweetest woman! Thank you so much Joke! I adore both of my gifts (and their senders) so very much. I will cherish them forever.
And, here is my fairy... she is close to stitched up now, save for some small areas of braid that will just have to wait until the postman delivers the goods. I was able to start the pumpkin vines tonight - it is getting very sparkly and shiny now :-)Stitched on today: Stitched on Halloween Fairy

Carol isn't she lovely. She reminds me of the art deco statuettes you see on the UK Anitques Roadshow sometimes - with a different costume of course ;-)
