piggie in the middle

Once upon a time there were two friends Mary and Susan.

Both were talented crafters with great taste...

but as they lived so far apart how could they ever meet?

This is where the piggie* part comes in.

*the piggie being me!

Okay so they aren't here in person

but their goods do get to mingle here at my house!

 The first surprise to arrive was from Susan in Australia.

We have a shared love of brown 'n' colour

I love how it ties everything together.

My favourite piece is the heavily quilted fabric tub

made from an old tea-towel,

it's just my thing!

Thank you Susan for getting me out of my funk x

 And then along came these American beauties.

Mary always picks such wonderful things.

The little labels were used within moments

as I had just made jam.

I haven't sewn much this year

but I think I could get used to precuts!

Thank you Mary you are a sweetheart x

 The little verbena magnet

found its home in my printers tray.

I do feel like a little piggie

with all these lovely gifts.

With them all gathered here

I am amazed how well they sit together.

A meeting of generous generous minds x

*recognise my hairband Susan?
