It’s been a stressful few weeks with Uni and placement, but I got two gorgeous handmade presents on the same day this week and it properly cheered me up!
The first was from one of my fabulous midwifery friends Annie, she knows about my obsession with all things orange (seriously my wardrobe is now about 50% orange clothing!) and having spend the evening with one of her very crafty friends playing with resin had made me a lovely orange flower ring which she gave to me when we happened to be on placement on the same day – it’s so stunning – I hardly ever wear rings (most shop bought ones are too big for my tiny fingers!) but i just love this and want to wear it all the time.
I then got home to a little package with this gorgeous little knitted handbag keyring, no note attached, although i presumed it was from my FABULOUS swap partner for the Ravelry UK Swaps Winter Swap – she’s spoiling me already with some lovely embroidery threads and now this gorgeous little keyring and the swap hasn’t even been sent out yet!!! I literally can’t wait for that parcel! I really hope that her swap partner is treating her as well!!
lots of love

Hi Chloe,
What a lucky lady you are!!! That ring is GORGEOUS!!! I’ve never really had any organe clothes before. But, since this summer, everything I’ve bought has been orange!!! It’s a fab colour, I’ve discovered!
What a nice swap partner you’ve found – that keyring is sooooo cute!

I would never have said i’d wear orange (i’ve loved the colour for years) but all the autumnal oranges that are out this autumn are just heaven! i’ve gone a bit overboard!!!
Yes i’m certainly a luck swapee!!!
