Lucky me :-)

When I came home from work today, a lovely surprise was waiting for me:



My scrappy pincushion swap goodies had arrived!!! This is the first swap I've participated in and I'm so thrilled with what I got, it really made my day to open this lovely parcel!

Have a look at the fab pincushion Rachel made:



Isn't it sweet? I love flowers, felt and bright colours so this was perfect for me! I just love the effect of the felt on the linen and the stitching is so gorgeous! She also included lots of little goodies for me: some lovely scraps, some pretty ric rac, a scrummy little chocolate bar and these cuter than cute little badges:



I adore these - I've been looking for something to brighten up and customise my sewing machine for a little while now and I'm thinking these might just do the trick!!

Check out Rachel's lovely blog: http://contented.typepad.co.uk/

Thanks so much Rachel!
