Stitcher's Angel Surprise


I received a wonderful surprise in the mail today. A package from my Stitcher's Angel Anne who lives in Norway. The embroidery must have taken quite a long time. I have never seen stitches so tiny. She sent my 2 purses, a little pouch and a mini quilt. One of my favorite colors is Lavender and I just love everything that she sent me. It was a really fun swap and so nice to be in touch with people all over the world.
