My first gift is not stitching but stitching related. I recently finished my Baked Goods by Little House Needleworks for the Travelling Chart with Needlecraft Haven and made it into a box lid for keeping my icing bag and nozzles in. It was so lovely to use my new box when I made a few Easter chocolate dairy free (ish) cupcakes for our daughter and partner.
My new sewing machine has been put to use again. I made a Coffee Koozie for my Hubby. No patchwork this time, I used a single piece of fabric and stitched a few vertical lines to keep the wedding in place.
I have received two more super letters from Gill, one of the lovely ladies at Needlecraft Haven. Her best friend is also a member but due to I'll health has not been stitching for quite a while. Gill has stitched her I initials for the tree, what a lovely gesture of true friendship, thank you Gill.
I have also received these beautiful letters from DJ, they are perfect. Thank you so much DJ, you are very kind.
Another month of lovely gifts, it is so nice that my hobby not only provides a pastime for me but is also a way to share love and kindness with others ... it's quite a special thing isn't it!

Love the stitched cookie top and all the letters from stitching friends .
Happy Easter.
I love your creativity, and the variety of your projects. I am also enjoyingvseeing all the letters, and that reminds me that I should stitch a couple for your tree. I've had a lovely visit today.
I already told you how I love your top box, glad to see it again with those appetizing cupcakes, looks like I'm reading a cooking/stitching magazine. Letters from Gill and DJ are nice, that "bouquet" is growing well. Amitiés. xxx
Thanks for taking part in GG this month. The cupcakes do look yummy!
You have some more lovely letters for your tree now. You're right, half the fun is sharing and connecting with other stitchers.
Excellent letters and what a lovely box and cupcakes!
Oh your box top is the perfect design for your icing accessories! Love the cozy you made for your husband, you are so creative! So glad the letters made it there safely, I love the A and M too, very classy! I can't wait to see your finished tree! xx
