Aren't Mums the best!

My Mum and sister are visiting this weekend, they've already picked out their items from my craft stall. Mum gave me a belated birthday present and it was full of goodies. She has known for ages that I've wanted this book

and there's even a little pin with a dutchman's puzzle block on it. The package also contained 2 pairs of knitted socks (Mum knows I love knitted socks in bright colours!).....

and some gorgeous fabrics
Thank-you Mum, I love all my pressies!

What a sweet Mum you have! I have the DJ book and software and have made about 65 blocks. It is now a UFO but I am thinking about starting back on it.
BTW - a little something is on its way to you!

Great socks! I've been thinking about buying the Dear Jane book, but putting it off in case I feel obligated to start making the blocks, and then where will I be!
