A lovely surprise from Joy!

I took part in a giveaway the other day, over at Joy's blog, Daisy Row, and was delighted to find that I was the lucky winner!  
Here's what greeted me, when I opened the box - what a lot of lovely parcels!  I particularly liked the star wrapping paper that Joy had used.
 There was some material included, which is the background here.
Here's what was in the parcels - star tissue paper and ribbon, crocheted rounds/coasters (which may get used for a project, although I haven't quite decided yet), sewing thread, a notebook (perfect for notes at my sewing lessons), the cutest little penguin bag/purse, or possibly camera case as my camera fits in there, and some white chocolate (which didn't last long, not with two chocoholics in the house!)  A HUGE thank you to Joy for her generosity, which is much appreciated.  Aren't giveaways great...especially if you are lucky enough to win!

      Thanks, Amanda. I was really lucky to win and received lots of lovely things! The penguin is really cute - I'm not sure whether he will be a bag, purse or camera case - possibly all three!

      Thanks, Mii. Ah, you know what we're like with chocolate - it lasted about half an hour!

      Thanks, Briony. I certainly am very lucky - I don't usually win that many things, so that makes it even more special when I do!
