Birthday Present FOR Su!

It's Su's birthday today, Happy birthday dear my friend!

I've got a lovely e-mail from her to let me know that she received a birthday gift from me safely!

It was a bit early gift, though as I was doing packing and was busy on moving, I didn't want to lose the parcel, so I sent it earlier.

Anyway, here it is, what I made for her birthday.
I made a Tilda Snail for her, as I knew that she loves Snails!


I made her shell with dark brown polka dot,
mine has a black polka dot shell, so they are sisters!
Su told me that she is going to call her "Mog", I'm happy she has got a lovely name!

Here is Mog's close up photo.


She has make up on her cheeks, she is lovely, isn't she?
And here is her shell.




I added dark brown woolly lace and crochet flower on her shell.
They (Su's and mine) are very alike, just have different colour shells, they are like twins! :)

I wanted to stitch something for Su, but since I've been packing and unpacking, had no time to stitch.
I was quite worried because Su is a wonderful crafter, I knew that she made SO lovely bears!
But I'm so happy that she loves this Snail!


I also have sent her a flower vase (red one), it's made by plastic.
Here is a photo of it.
It's quite unique, but lovely, isn't it?

This photo was taken by my mobile phone, so it's not so clear, though.
I also have this, but somewhere yet in the boxes!

Today I received a parcel from my mum, there were some craft materials and a lovely tote bag which my mum's friend made for me!
Now I have been working on "Blessings Be Thine" by Blackbird Designs, it's about 50% done now.
Next time I will show you a new tote bag and my stitching progress!


Happy Birthday, Su!
Take care and Thanks for stopping by.

Mog is lovely! Su must be thrilled to have received such a lovely snail. The vase is very pretty too.

I hope you are having good days with unpacking Yuko and that you are able to stitch a little too. Take care, and don't work too hard.

Can't wait to see the progress you've made on your cross stitch projects!

I'm still using the strawberry shortcake fob I purchased from you! It definitely helps me keep track of my scissors ;)

That cute snail reminds me to a flamenco snail, doesn't it?. It also look a very smart flamenco type. Congratulations both to Sue for getting such a present, and to you for making it.
Kiss,
Marta.

Oh Yuko,
Your little snail is so so pretty. She looks as if she has put on her best clothes and is just waiting for her friends for a tea party :>) No wonder Su is thrilled with her.

I had never heard of Tilda until a short while ago and now, I really want to find out more..haha!
Hugs, Angela
