My SSCS Gift from Jodie!

Hi there!
Back again!
I've been away over the week-end to see my husband and kids.
We had a lovely week-end together.
I had plans to do this post before I left, but couldn't make it, sorry!
But here it is!
This lovely parcel arrived looong before christmas.
And it had travelled all the way from Ballarat, Australia!
I was sooo tempted to open it, but I was a good girl!
Yes I was!
Thank you, Jodie!Inside, I found nothing less than four, wrapped gifts!

This is what I found inside the wrapping! A beautiful book about Australia...
...this lovely and fun tablerunner, made from selvages!
Boy, she really is clever with selvages,
you should take a look on her blog and see for yourself!
This lady is very talented and have a lovely sence of humor...
...I have followed her blog, Ric Rac, for a while!
And I have seen what she has made from selvages, tape-measures,
you name it!
And look what she made for me!
This fun, zippered tape-measure purse!
And inside she had put a cow tape-measure, a key-ring
and a pencil with the metric system on one side and inches on the other!
But we're not done with that!
Look at this cute, little red and white polka-dot cup and saucer!
The dots are stitched on, if you wonder!
I love it!
I have watched her making cups from fabric,
so it was so great sitting with one of them in my hands!
Thank you again, Jodie, for your lovely gift!
And many thanks to Chookyblue, for hosting this fun swap, again!
Until next time, take care!
May Kristin
