My Mum's this time, she's 27 & a bit
(has been for ages). So I made up another of those
wee pockets.

This time a lovely dark blue but lined with pale pink
(lining was a new idea).

Then I prettied it up with some beads from my stash.

I picked a nice cobalt blue sugar "focal" bead
(the preferred beadie term I think) which is lumpy, like it was rolled in sugar, and a little pink & blue flower bead to dangle from the front point.

I stuffed it with a box of fancy glass-headed pins
(Mum's favourite type of pin, nice & sharp and easier to see & pick up than the plain jobbies). Then I carefully packed it up in a box with some Cat's Tongues,

vanilla again but with a touch of lemon.
I hope the postie doesn't fling the box against the door or anything, those Cat's Tongues aren't as durable as the real thing.
Happy birthday Ma xx.
