Joann Perry from Serendipitous Stitching
http://serendipitousstitching.blogspot.com/ sent me the nicest exchange. I received it yesterday and loved everything in it. She is from Oulton Broad in Britain. She sent me lots of souvenirs from the Diamond Jubilee celebrating Queen Elizabeth the second. Joann. I just loved everything. I'm so glad you were able to find a patch for me. Your is on the way real soon. Should have it in the post by early week.
Here is the lovely patch she found me. I have a jacket that I have tons of patches on from different places we have visited or friends have sent. I will take a picture once I get it added to my coat.
A lovely thimble with her suburb on it of Oulton Broad.
Look at this beautiful fridge magnet which could also be used as a paperweight. It is a Diamond Jubilee celebration souvenir.
There are also two leather bookmarks, a pencil, a paper advertising a celebration in her town and a little British notebook.
And....
This beautiful card stitched for me of a British flag heart. Love the silver embossing on the card. Jo you outdid yourself. I can hardly wait to send some cool stuff your way.
I did some yummy cooking in the Redi set go with Jim. We made little individual pizzas. So far this one is working fine and the other must have been a fluke. The first ones we ate before I got a pic off. But the second ones turned out real nice too.
Mine was a ranch spinach with mushroom and onion and a pizza mix cheese. Yummy....
Here is Jim's going into to redi set go...
And here it is coming out and the end result is.....
His was made with ground up polish sausage,olive oil, onion, Italian seasoning, a few crumbles of hamburger, and mozzarella cheese.
Wow is all I can say. I also made some jello with bananas and whipped topping and we had garden salads.
Today we are off to do some shopping and then back home. I've got to finish my PS ornament. I am behind and so embarrassed. I will do something special to make it up to my partner.
Blessed Stitching,
Sarah Beth
