Today has been a public holiday here in Auckland and we have enjoyed beautiful hot weather. I love days like this - my to do list is always long. Did you hear the satisfied "mmm" as I crossed off each item?
Garden weeded - yes!
This week's meals cooked - yes!
All net curtains washed - yes!
Ironing done - yes!
Finished my book - yes!
And of course some stitching got done too. This is the almost finished piece. My niece Heidi brought me these two lace elephants from India last year. A couple of rows of drawn thread hem stitching + a struvdor on the flap = a handkerchief sachet. This is still only pinned and tacked but hopefully the seams will be stitched and the lining inserted this week so I can call this complete too.
Oh well, back to work tomorrow....

Ohhhhh pretty! I love the little elephants. And the Struvor stitching looks beautiful. The little details add so much to it!
