Perfect Timing!

My day yesterday was just lovely... including a Mother's Day function at school with mr12, & spending wonderful unexpected time with my precious BF... And now just look at what I arrived home to...
The delivery of my Mother's Day 12" Mini Quilt, from Anna!
Sneaky girl you... stalking my blog in your anonymity! (Anna doesn't blog, but you can see here what I sent to her) Anna also included these extra goodies...


...buttons, fabric squares & a very pretty flower brooch she made...

Wow, thank you Anna for sharing your amazing stitching & sewing skills with me, I LOVE IT!! I do feel very spoilt, & it looks wonderful on its stand on my buffet.





 I really loved doing this swap, & thanks of course goes to Swap Mama Cheryll at Gone Stitchin' for organising such fun. I'll be joining in again for sure...





*~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~*
Sending lots of love & warm wishes to all the Mothers... & all the Grandmothers.... have a great day with your children & families...
And while we are thinking of Mothers, let us not forget those for whom Mother's Day is difficult for so many various reasons, & the increasing number of amazing ladies whose Mothering heart gives love to children not their own.
~♥~Happy Mother's Day 2013~♥~
