An English March Hare

Goodness me, my last posting was on the 8th!!  What have I been doing that has kept me away you may wonder?  Well nothing actually.  I've just been doing the after holiday unpacking and settling back into routine thing.  Does anyone else take two weeks to unpack their bags? 

I guess I've been feeling a little unmotivated as well.  But I have started another swap gift.  This time it's the pillow swap and I have begun.  Red, blue and pink are the selected colours from my partner.  Perfect!

Now Amanda from Amanda Makes and I had a little bunny swap.  Well so far she's done the swapping bit and I've done the receiving.  But I can say that her parcel is finally in the mail!  Sorry for the wee delay Amanda. 

Just look at the wonderful parcel that arrived last week.  Aren't I lucky?  Like pretty much any blogger friend she included a few little extras.  Aren't bloggy friends the best?

Just look at my new March Hare.  Isn't she the cutest little rabbit?  Her name is Louby Lou.  I love the beads and ribbon work on her collar.  Such sweet little details.  And see how high she can leap!!  Wow I can see I'm going to need to keep a close eye on her.

I love the lion fabric too.  It's always nice to have a new fabric to use.

And lookie lookie...  CK stickers and all mine!!!  How exciting.  I'll be too scared to use them so I'll treasure them for quite a while I'm sure.  Don't expect to see any on my mail any time soon.

And isn't the card beautiful?  Most of my blogging friends send a postcard like this with their parcels.  I wonder if I can get stylish cards like this in NZ?  I really don't think I've seen any before.  It's such a lovely type of card. 

Thank you so very much for my lovely parcel Amanda!  I really do love my new rabbit.  Shall I give you an itsy bitsy clue about your bunny?  Yeah?  Her name is Daisy.  And that's all I'll be saying.

Now as a little extra, can I please ask you all a very personal question?  Are we rather frivolous with toilet paper or is there another family out there who goes through a whole roll of toilet paper in a day.  Every day.  No matter what.  Even when three little people are at school five of the days.  Seriously and I always seem to be the one who has to replenish it.  Don't you hate that?!  And in case you are wondering, I buy the cheap stuff in a pack of 24.  It seems rather a lot to me.
