Book Swap Parcel
Do you know I think I am spending more time posting about what wonderful things Mr Postman brings me than actually doing anything creative! I received this beautifully parcel from Caroline over at dolliedaydream (isn't that such a great blog name?!). Even the outside of the parcel was so neat and well packaged I was very impressed. If there is one thing I love its great packaging and attention to detail and Caroline you sure do have the knack!
The book she sent looks very interesting. Its not something that I would probably pick myself, but on reading the cover it sounds exactly like the type of thing I would enjoy, so I have bumped it up my reading list! Just to let you in on the story:
'When painter Roderic Kennedy meets Julia Fitzpatrick, twenty years younger and also an artist, it seems as if the crises that have troubled his life are finally over. But when Julia meets William Armstrong, a middle-aged lawyer, it sets in motion a chain of events which has dramatic consequences for all three of them.'
Sounds intriguing doesn't it?! She also sent lovely Charlie & Lola notebook and Clarice Bean stickers for Emily and This wonderful embroidery book for me too. I haven't done any proper embroidery before but I bought a hoop for 10p at a car boot sale a while back and have been meaning to give it a try so this is just perfect - and with floss too. Look at this lovely detail. It also has advice on stitches too, which is just what i need. Another project to add to my list!
Thank you so much Caroline! Yours will be in the post soon! Thanks to everyone taking part in the swap too! I don't have a pro Flickr account and can't fit any more photos on at the mo, otherwise I would setup a group set for our swap. So please let me know when you all get your swaps, I can't wait to see how it turned out. :)
