Lace peacocks from Liz!

Liz in Kansas featured some lovely lace motifs on her blog recently, one of which was a peacock. Of course I had to ask where she got it, and she offered to send me a couple in exchange for some fabric. I sent her some sparkly stuff that I had no use for, but she loves to play with, and today I received my lace peacocks.

Liz also enclosed a copy of a quilting pattern "Patched Peacocks" which she thought I would like. She was right! Can't wait to have a go at this one.

THis isn't anything stitchy, but it is the paper that Liz used to wrap the lace in - isn't it beautiful? This is one piece of wrapping paper that won't be consigned to the paper recycle bin!
