At about 11am yesterday morning, there was a knock on the front door. I went out to the courier.
“You have no idea how pleased I am to see this parcel!”
“Oh, I thought you were going to say how pleased you were to see me.” (I’d never seen this fellow before in my life!)
“Oh yes, that too!”
The advance copies had arrived. 🙂
I unwrapped them, and there were two of each of the books I have had reprinted. And in amongst them, there were the two copies of “Early-Style Hardanger”. YAY!
Early-Style Hardanger in my hot little hands!
The rest of the shipment is likely to arrive in the first few weeks of June. At that time I will send them out to everyone who has ordered a copy. Some will be on their way direct from the printers to my international distributors. Slowly, they will reach around the world and into shops so that everyone who wants a copy can purchase one!
For those of you who will be at my class at Parkes in a few weeks, yes, I will bring a copy with me for you to look at! 🙂
White Threads is the blog of Yvette Stanton, the author, designer, publisher behind Vetty Creations' quality needlework books and embroidery products.
Congratulations! It never feels real until you hold it in your hands, does it?
Yep, now it’s real! 🙂
Congratulations! The book looks so beautiful. Also loved your post about working hardanger embroidery into the collars of the shirt- gorgeous.
Thanks Jennifer! Lovely to hear from you. I hope you’re well. Writing anything new? 🙂
