I Won Paris Gal's Giveaway!

I bead embroidered on the pattern of this small swatch of material. I won one of Rhonda's (of "A Little Bit French" blog) Friday giveaways and this little piece of gorgeous material was in it along with lots of other goodies.
The colors were beautiful and so different from what I usually do, I just had to try it.
It is still in process, but I'm really liking it. Thank you Rhonda for your generosity and beautiful packaging of my Friday giveaway present.
And most of all thank you for all of your handmade goodies. Your tags, labels, trims, materials, lace, ribbons and stamps are wonderful. It is no wonder you do so well on Etsy (http://www.parisgal56.etsy.com/). Visit Rhonda's shop here.
I received the material I embroidered and everything in the above photo. That's a fantastic giveaway! Thank you again Rhonda.

That's really neat that the items or at least one of them, struck such a chord with you. It looks terrific too.
