Presents and a Prize

I had some great gifts this Christmas - I love this Knitting by Design book, which as well as containing patterns, gives an insight into the design process.  I've yet to have a good read at it and will let you know my findings soon.  Then there's the Teacups book, which I'll enjoy using to identify finds.  I'm also a lucky girl in that I've won something else from Sewing World!  Again, I just filled in the giveaway coupon in the back of the magazine.  'Make it Personal' gives some fab ideas for combining sewing and printmaking along with detailing the design process - great for me - just what I wanted!
