At the moment I am in France enjoying a birthday (it was 10th) trip. We spent my birthday in Sancerre which is my favourite wine region. You can read about it in my latest blog post on Aimetu's- wine, food and travel.
I was stunned by the beautiful Sancerre bottle my friend Sarah decorated for me, it really is a work of art.
As we were going way I opened my gifts on Sunday - thank you Julie for the lavender cream, mats and zipper pouch, all so very useful. Thank you Christine for my Michael Powell book, there are some great designs in it.

I'm offering the chart as a giveaway to anyone else who would like to stitch these hearts - I'm happy to post anywhere. I'm sorry I do not have a photo of the chart but it is on my GG February post. Please let me know in the comments if you would like to be entered into this giveaway.
Finally here are two coasters I stitched for our friend's daughter and husband who have just moved into their first bought home.
Thank you for calling by, I hope you've had a good GG September- au revoir from France!
