Apology and Accolades

I have a very dear friend who has made me incredible gifts. During a time when I needed a "pick me up", she made me yet another beautiful gift. At the time I received it, I did take pictures (I found them), but neglected to post them here for everyone to enjoy. This is a stitcher's portfolio. It was made by Isabelle with bright, cheery colors to make me happy during a trying time. No excuses...my fault for not showing this wonderful gift. This portfolio can hold your chart (it has a magnet under the top bar, so it doesn't slip), your threads (in the side pocket, as well as a small WIP. It folds like a small portfolio so that you can easily carry it. In addition, to making the portfolio herself, she also sent me a heart chart, some beautiful green fabric, some overdyed threads and some lace, which is gorgeous. Take a peek at my gift:

Beautiful gifts from a sincere and wondrous friend across the miles. Thank you so much, Isabelle, for everything. I sincerely apologize for not sharing your generosity sooner.
