exchange received

A big smile was on my face this week when I received a wonderful package from Valma.   I received a pretty red wooden tree ornament with MS penguin centered in it, with a beautiful bell hanging at the top with a 'handmade' hand attached to the ribbon.  And Valerie  made it special with the penguin holding the present which looks like the French flag - blue and red and white.  What a great way for me to remember that it came from Valma in France!!   Also she sent me some red edged aida banding which is really pretty along with a piece of heart designed fabric.  I will have to find a special design for this.  A cute white wooden tree ornament with an aperature in which I will be putting a small Christmas stitching, and some Christmas stickers, which I have already used three of them.  :)   And a red fabric bag filled with Christmas ribbons and buttons.  I love it all!!   Thank you again Valerie. :)   This makes my Christmas spirit even stronger, and I want to wish everyone at MSLblog a very Merry Christmas even though it's early!!  :)
