I had a lovely surprise this morning, which was great as it's a very wet and windy day (but not as bad as in
Tokyo). I received my goody bag in the Global Piecers' sewing bag swap from my partner, Sandy. Not only had Sandy made me a wonderful bag in lovely fabrics, she had filled it with all kinds of yummy things including fabric for an apron, a crocheted necklace, magazines, sewing gizmos and these lovely coasters:
Sandy was really kind and put in a little something for my beloved Sam:
Thank you Sandy, I love it all and it made my day opening the package and discovering all the lovely things you had included. I'm off upstairs now to rearrange my packing because I think that delicious bag has got to come to Japan with me.
Oh all your friends are so lovely to Sam :)
ReplyDeleteI love that the bag and coasters will match perfectly at the Bach - (was that known / deliberate??) as well as the bag matching your summer clothes colour scheme. Good work Sandy!
wonderful goodies. have a great trip.
ReplyDeleteWhat a super swap gift and very thoughtful too. Have a great time in Japan. Hopefully the weather will have settled by the time you get there. Bon voyage!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic surprise and just in time for you to take the bag to Japan. Have a great time and I will look forward to hearing about it x
ReplyDeleteOh yes please bring the bag to Japan, I would like to have a closer look!
ReplyDeleteYes Lis, bring it with you. I haven't started packing yet. I have been waiting for my suitcase to get back from Germany with my son-in-law.
ReplyDeletethat is a lovely bag, liz
ReplyDeleteI agree you have to take that bag with you, perfect for all the shopping!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely surprise, all these great gifts! The bag looks perfect for shopping in Japan.
ReplyDeleteYou'll have to hurry; the cherry trees are opening their flowers fast. We did indeed have a wild storm - a typhoon in SPRING has not occurred since 1954. Hopefully the weather has stabilised by the time of your arrival.
Have a good flight and see you soon.
Happy Easter.
safe trip, Lis. Hope you're packing your brollie and mac! Bet you will fill that bag up in no time. See you soon.
