A very quick order for a birthday present - a fat robin clip. Rather nice to make something in under five hours; one of my latest pieces has taken around about 30 hours plus and still not quite finished.

There are all kinds of treasures on this bookcase, but now there are some new ones - discovered on Etsy in 'Found For You Supplies', a set of gorgeous red vintage threads. Can you spot them?
