Love and Friendship Exchange

I stitched on a hand towel for my exchange partner and sent other goodies pictured . The phrase says "A friend is someone who reaches for your hand but touches your heart."
The design comes from a book by Marie Barber

"Bless the Baby" finished




Finished the design by Lizze Kate and personalised it with a dragon button up the top and a glass celtic button near the name. The button is blue and symbolises the baby's Irish and Scottish heritage.
USA, England and Switzerland are other countries of ancestors of the baby.

A present for first Grandson


January has been a busy stitching time while watching the summer sports on TV. My Mother has been busy knitting a pram/cot cover with a most unusual pattern. She is certainly the knitting expert in the family.
My top picture is Lizzie Kate design which is a WIP. I have yet to decide on a button to add and I have to stitch baby's name
The next picture is a rabbit stitched on a singlet.
Also I have done a piece for a swap which I cannot reveal as yet.
