Blow you away post....






Well I am still shaking with excitement.....I have received my Christmas in July swap, hosted by Linda and Stephanie....(awesome job ladies, three cheers)....my swap partner was ....."PAT"....
delivered to work was a box, not a post pack but a box....I opened it, had to pop home to take a photo before I tore into the packages, look how beautifully wrapped they all are.....and what I found inside just totally 'blew me away'.........now this package deserves a couple of posts, as there is so much detail in all my treats, so over the next few days I will show each gift in detail.... how gorgeous are they all, I am really just so lucky....but first of all I will share with you the stocking...just check out the stitching, Pats workmanship is wow.........
I love all my gifts Pat, you are just so very generous, and thoughtful and everything in my parcel was totally mind boggling......goodness me, I always seem to get such fantastic swap partners........now tomorrow I am going to show you "Sweet Pat", that is what I have named my doll.....have a fab day, cause I am.....LOL....
