On the "Make a Wish" exchange forum I wished for a Prairie Schooler design, because I didn't have any of them. Karen volunteerd to fulfill my wish. This mornings mail brought me this beautifully stitched and finished tin. Gorgeous isn't it? I really like the design Karen chose for me and the 1 over 1 stitching is perfect! Thank you so much Karen! Hugs, Simone

Don't you just love our international stitching community???? Today I received a package from JAPAN! WOW! It's the first time ever I receive mail from Japan. Chizue made me this lovely tin for the Harvest House Exchange (SBEBB). She used a design from the Drawn Thread for it (Spot of Autumn). She also included two pieces of very pretty fabric and some Japanese Green Tea (which I drink a lot). There were even two origami-birds with it! Chizue, thank you so much for this lovely exchange!!! Hugs, Simone
