Please bare with me!

Hi all,

I had all intentions of announcing the winners last night but something has come about that needs my urgent attention.

I have a dear friend who is extremely ill with Cancer and is in hospital. She is also a life long friend of my sister's and we have friends who arrived last night from the north and south coast so we could all be with her in this very difficult time. It's her birthday today also and I am being picked up in 10 minutes so we can go and throw a birthday party for her in her hospital room and spend precious time with her.

 So we will lighten and brighten her day with gifts, good food and happy faces!!

I shall be back later tonight to announce the lucky winners but needed to share this so you weren't left wondering where I had disappeared too.

 

Hope your enjoying your day!

Together "In Stitches"

Natalie :-)
