AND my stamps were all unfranked so I got back all my postage – which almost makes up for being stung for VAT on the import! Winner. Winner. Chicken Dinner.
There are some terrific fabrics in here … thank you to everyone in the Flickr group, it’s a great selection and I love every single square!
You’ll have to forgive the dark photos – Two hailstorms today! … and vay vay dark …
