Kindness


This pillow came from my friend Doris today. Her unexpected act of kindness blew me over. I love the design, the soft, soft colours, and the cute ribbon hanger (it says "handmade", the hand being drawn instead of written).
This makes me want to stitch again. If only for the sake of sending gifts. A hand-stitched gift is so precious.

Merci beaucoup, Doris. J'adore ce motif et ses couleurs toutes douces. Tu sais déjà combien ce geste de gentillesse et le mot qui allait avec m'ont touchée. Ca me donne envie de recommencer à broder des cadeaux. Merci mille fois et gros bisous !


In closing, P'tite Mignonne says thank you all for your kind and caring words... and so do I. Thank you!

This is so cute!
May I borrow the idea of the printed ribbon hanger?
Domino knows too well how your kitty feels. He's just the same whenever one of us is away.
Take care, xxx, patty
