...To describe my emotion on receiving dear Becky's gift!
Becky's parcel arrived yesterday, and, although I had already seen it on her blog, I cannot believe how GORGEOUS the needlecase is. I still need to adjust to the fact that Becky did make this for me!
I'm afraid I will never get used to its beauty and delicacy... It is so carefully stitched and impeccably finished.
Blue is my ever-favourite colour, and Becky declined it in all its most subtle hues in making this needlecase - in her choice of linen, lining fabric and ribbon (it is a bit darker and subtler in real life).
Becky stitched my initials, IB... But I like to read them rather as "Isabelle - Becky"! 
The parcel took longer than is usual to make its way from the US to France. Well, I don't wonder - I'm sure the mailmen wanted to keep it for themselves! But I sure am very sorry that it got Becky so worried ... 
But all is well now!
But I sure am very sorry that it got Becky so worried ... But all is well now! I also have pictures of a few projects to share with you... But they shall wait till another post: I wanted this whole post to be all about Becky's kindness and talent!
Big hugs to you, dear Becky!

Isabelle and Becky,
This is a beautiful gift,from one stitcher to another. I am so curious: have you all exchanged gift before? Is this an annual thing , or was it the first exchange? Did you act like secret sisters for a few months or whAT? Whose idea was it? How many people were involved? I think it's a great idea.
Becky did a great job on the needlecase! I know she'll be relieved that it made it's way to it's new home :)
Ohh Isabelle, it's beautiful. How wonderful to have friends that care so much. You deserve it!!!!
What a lovely gift! I love watching the things that everyone gets for the exchanges.
Wow that's really beautiful. It's always nice when people think of you. :)
Lucky you! I saw it too on Beckys blog. It's gorgeous and you're the one who it's made for! (I hope this is correct English, but I don't really care...).
you can feel the love and friendship, don't you agree!
I love the internet, I can never say it enough...
bye, good luck with your teaching tomorrow
Congratulations - it's lovely Isabelle!
