Friendship exchange

Caroline made me this wonderful embroidered little bag. It says : the road fo a friends house is never too long I think she colored the fabric with tea or something, to get that old look, is that right Caroline?
She also stitched me a lovely needlebook and added a (handmade?) notebook. I'm very pleased with the exchange, thanks Caroline!

Hi Joke, you're right about the tea-colouring. The little notebook is made by father. I like fabric, he likes to work with paper. bye bye Caro

Isn't she clever. I really like your little bag. I'm lucky to have a Simon Dijkerman notebook as well. I need to get my exchange item into the mail.

Hope you are all doing well.
Hugs,
Marne
