A surprise from Japan

I told you the mailman left a card to tell me to collect a package at the Post Office. Well, Saturday morning I walked across to find it was a PIF from Yuko. What a lovely surprise - inside was a beautiful stitched biscornu, a card of ribbon, a DMC variegated thread I had not seen before, two cherry blossoms to perfume my drawers and a small notepad. Thank you so much Yuko - I am really pleased to have some of your beautiful stitching. I love the colour and especially the beaded edging.

What a lovely biscornu. Have been meaning to do this finishing for a while but at the moment I'm too taken up with my patchwork. However I do intend to start back soon on one or two small pieces for Christmas gifts.

P/S Thanks for dropping by & happy stitching.
