I spent most of my day at the Humane Society working on the Spay/Neuter clinic we are having this weekend. By the time I left, I was pooped. But my spirits were lifted when I saw packages in my mailbox. I received my Hoe Needleroll from Brigitte in Germany. It is beautifully stitched in fall colors, my favorite season. She also included Farm Fresh and Just Hatched by The Prairie Schooler from my wish list. There was also a small German chart of pansies, some of my favorite flowers. Thank you so much, Brigitte. You spoiled me so much. I love your exchange!

Here's a closeup of the needleroll. Look at the specialty stitches. They are fantastic!
