Too spoiled...

Hi friends!
I hope this finds you well, and enjoying the Advent season!

Look what sweet Becky sent me in her final Adopt a Stitcher package of the year...


Each and every one of those gifts is so thoughtful and gorgeous... Becky even thought of little Robin - how sweet! I love absolutely everything... I can't even tell you which gift I prefer! THANK YOU, dear Becky!!

Becky has been a wonderful, loving AAS giver all year long... Despite the rotten year she's been having. I feel so blessed by all the love and care she put in each package this year... Becky, you're a most precious friend. I pray that 2007 be a much happier year for you - you so deserve it!!

Funny thing is, I just started a pretty kit Becky sent me last February... a Pine Mountain design called "Long January"... I remarked to Seb how handy it was to have a cute design all kitted up when one wanted to chill out with a quick project - and the very next morning, I was given a new one from Becky: a Zipper kit by Bent Creek! I love that one too :) and once those two are stitched up, I shall for the first time be able to start decorating our flat for Winter.

That is not all I received last week - I've been truly spoiled...
Karen sent me this fabric card, which Seb and I adore:


Anne-Marie in Normandy stitched an adorable towel for Robin's first Christmas...


and my sweet Leabanese friend Hala, sent me a bunch of fabrics...

one of which is obviously for Robin!

Talking of Robin... He turned a month old on Friday.

Here he is at one month, "practicing his gymnastics" as my sister phrased it.

Hope you're all having a beautiful Sunday!

Oh my goodness, one month old already? Where does the time go? :) He is just such a adorable bundle of joy and love. I'm glad that you are enjoying being an auntie so much.

The gifts that you have received are wonderful and so well deserved. I was so tickled to see the baby afghan cloth and the bib in Becky's package. She is such a wonderful and thoughtful person. I think that we all feel blessed to know her.

Only a week away from Christmas now! If I don't "talk" to you before then (though I'm sure I will), have a wonderful, blessed Christmas, my beautiful friend!

Love, hugs and bisous from the happy trio in Pennsylvania.

Robin looks like his mum!!! You deserve to be spoiled - so enjoy! I got one of those pretty cards from Karen too - how did I manage to forget to post it in my blog? ARgh!!!

Wonderful gifts, Isabelle. And I couldn't agree more about how caring and generous Becky is, in spite of her many cares this year.

That picture of Robin is adorable - I remember when my babies were at that "gymnastics" stage. Such cute poses they strike! :) ENJOY!!!

Robin looks adorable, he is growing so fast and what a great smile. You received some lovely stuff, it will be hard to decide what to work with first. The zipper kits are fun, I did the Scared Crow zipper kit and really enjoyed it.

A month, already? Hardly seems possible. Look at that little bundle of cuteness!

Becky really spoiled you, didn't she? I'm so glad. Noone deserves it more! I love that snowman bag. Looks like you will have plenty to keep you busy in the stitching department. :)
