A Birthday Gift

I met my quilty friends at our guild day on Tuesday. One of our lovely ladies, Carole (no blog) made this charming heart pincushion for my birthday, which was a couple of weeks ago.

Her embroidery is perfection and she used a vintage lace made by a member of her family.

There is no denying that handmade gifts are the best.

Thank you Carole! I love it!
