From my manager I received this lovely quilted table piece. All the stitching is done with variegated thread and the colours are scrumptious!

| Excuse the messy desk... |
She also gave me a fantastic handmade button necklace.

| She had a very good guess as to what my favourite colour is. |
One of my fellow volunteers and craft groupers gave me a stitching themed card.
And also a poppy she had knitted herself.
One of the ladies at the craft group whom I don't really know, upon learning that I was leaving, whipped up this cute little bunny.
I'm going to miss all the ladies at the craft group, even though I did not know them particularly well, as it was such a lovely and cosy and (I'll shall have to use a Dutch word here, as there is no real English equivalent) "gezellig" couple of hours a fortnight, and it made me feel quite welcome in a town where I had felt quite isolated.
They gave you some lovely things to remember them with x

ReplyDeleteGreat presents to remember those lovely ladies from you craft group. Love all those purple colours and the bunny is so cute - as is the idea of many bunnies around the world
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely gifts you've received, the bunny is just the cutest. I hope you will still be blogging when you move to the Netherlands! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely gifts! That button necklace is really neat - what a wonderful idea! Perhaps you'll be able to find a new crafting group in The Netherlands? I'm with Bekca - I hope you'll keep blogging after the move too :) Best of luck!
