Hi All, Today I had a nice surprise in the mailbox. There was a box from Barbara Stokes in Australia. When I opened the box, although it was wrapped very well, I could hear a tinkling sound and thought I had to deal with broken glass. She had sent me a large red metal bell with lace on it. Sections of red half stitch and red and gold cloth stitch. It is already hanging on my tree. I had just finished dressing the tree and there was still some space. I decided this year not to overload the tree or hang up the garlands like I usually do, must be old age setting in, but there is plenty of lace on the tree.
Thank you Barbara.
