STITCHY STATIONERY ON FACEBOOK. LINKS AND IMAGES WILL OPEN IN A NEW WINDOW. Tuesday, 8 May 2012. It’s been some months since I last paid a visit to my blog, and you might be wondering what I’ve been up to during my absence. At Christmas, my services were volunteered.

The design (called Delphiniums. Tuesday, May 08, 2012.
