I have just heard that Carol has received her gift. This was one of the two I sent out rather secretly. It's a freebie design from Simone at Soed Idee which you can find here. I was so pleased on the finish which meant I could use this piece of backing fabric. I have had it for a couple of years and never found the right time to use it. Well now I have. Carol loves it, I hope as much as I do. Over the years we have exchanged many Christmas ornaments and I love to surprise her.
