My adorable Etui....

.... would you like to see my Christmas present to myself?

It is a custom-made Etui (decorative, ornamental case for holding needlework items) from L'uccello. I chose the French General Fabrics and then it is made up for me and the lovely ladies from L'uccello fill it with lots of lovely goodies.













Then, of course, I thought it was prudent to add a few little chosen pieces of my own, also from L'uccello.








So,  think that I am pretty set up with my bibs and bobs for 2015, what do you think?

hugs,
