Mail and More Mojo

Look at this lovely that arrived in my mail!
This beautiful wall hanging was designed and stitched by Shell of The Rasberry Rabbits and I was extremely lucky to win in in her 800th follower giveaway.
This picture doesn't show it any justice as Shell's stitching is so fine, far superior to anything I've stitched. Inside the stitcheries is all hand coloured...stunning!
Thank-you so much Shell!
If you'd like to make this head on over to Shell's to puchase a pattern.

As promised I did finish the Angel Sewing Tote, it was so easy to put together and the zip was a sinch
Inside is a little zipper pouch and another pouch with a scissor keep. It's a decent size too and perfect for taking away on a retreat.
This little bag is most likely destined for a future swap partner, not sure who might get it but I'm sure it will be a hit!
PS Chooky, don't ask about the GJ, no progress today!
