Excited!

Ok. I know you have all seen this before, but look! I've got my book! I am so excited to be joining in with this SAL. I also have my background fabric and my thread, but they are at home in Melbourne. I am visiting my family in Adelaide at the moment. (I was so embarrassingly excited I brought the book with me so I can look at the patterns!) I have been doing a bit of stitching of late, you can check it out here, so this should be all fun. I am also excited to see some of my favourite bloggers' names on the "Tis the Season" sidebar. I'm planning to catch up with you all. See you on on your blog!

Oh. And thanks Chookyblue!
