I've decided to publish this post, despite a lot of my blog being misaligned at the moment: Typepad's current problem with formatting has added unwanted line breaks after photos and in list items in my blog...Ugh! Hopefully, it will be fixed soon!!!
...Adorable Little Lulu is what I first saw when I opened a little package I received from Doe, who pens one of my favorite blogs, That Silly Lil' Doe,
and who must be
one of Cath Kidston's biggest fan on this side of the pond... Not a swap
nor a giveaway, the package is simply a Thank You! for being one of my cupcake tote giveaway winners -- Doe, you are a generous soul! Doe also enclosed a pretty heart pin cushion, which she made with a Cath Kidston bird fabric I've had my eye on for a while (such a long while in fact, that the print seems to be out of stock now!). There was still more in the package: pretty "Simplicity" squares from Moda and a yummy little polka dot thank you card -- Take a look:

As you can see, the gift has a Valentine's Day theme, and I did receive it just before Valentine's Day -- as usual though, I'm slow in posting things... I do have a babushka WIP post coming up in the next few days (guaranteed, because I've already taken photos for it!), so do stay tuned...
She is adorable, Beata! And, I don't normally like mice.. :-)

Isn't she just the sweetest lil Doe? I got a very similar package just in time for Valentine's Day too, but your photos are better ;-)
