I regularly visit her blog to admire the lovely work of her and her students (wishing I had more time to do some Hardanger embroidery again!) - this year she decided to send a kit to a different country every month and I was chosen for February!
This is the kit I selected, it combines cross stitch and Hardanger to create a stunning rose accented pillow. The kit contains chart, fabric and all the threads.
She also included this Hardanger kit - it is her basic course in Hardanger and contains a full set of instructions, fabric and threads.
You can have a look on her blog for more of her beautiful designs. Thanks again Lee - I will definitely enjoy stitching these lovely pieces!
Furthermore, it is still sweltering here - temperatures of over 30 degrees Celsius predicted for the next two weeks and they are already saying it will probably persist for the next month! To top it all off, I woke up with a sore throat today!
Enjoy the rest of the week - I have a small finish that I will share soon :)
Happy Stitching!

Congratulations, Michelle--you certainly did receive a lovely gift! Lee's blog is gorgeous, too--thanks for the tip.
I hope your sore throat doesn't progress into a full cold or flu--try to get some extra rest :)
How very wonderful and generous of Lee. I have never seen these designs - they are just beautiful (thanks for the link). So which one will you start first?
I hope you are feeling better soon!
Lucky you, Michelle! Both kits are so lovely and beautiful! Looking forward to see you start working on it. :) Hope you are feeling well soon.
Michelle,
felicidades com o seu novo trabalho. Eu sou a Maria Filomena, e também ganhei um kit da Lee. Temos algo em comum - gostarmos de trabalhos manuais, de bordar, de termos sido agraciadas com um presente da Lee e de compartilharmos a amizade dela.
Um grande abraço
Maria Filomena
