Friends that make you feel special

I've received two gifts this past week. The first was a kit from my friend Libby. We found out during dinner last week that we have several

things in common. This beautiful piece is finished as a trivet and I can't wait to get it stitched as I know right where I want to put it.

The other gift was a needlebook and tiny fob from my friend Debs in Indiana. Her stitching is amazing and her over one leaves me scratching my head. The beaded edge and perfectly made tassel and cording makes them so elegant. With everything that's been going on, it's so wonderful to have friends like this to make you feel so special.
