Talking of giveaways, do you remember my 100th post giveaway won by Jessica at Kerflop back in June? Well, I made a bunny, packaged her up and off she went on her way to Idaho, USA. But the days and weeks passed and she didn't arrive and as the weeks turned to months we had to assume the worst and consider that we might never see her again and so I made another for Jessica. This was my first ever missing parcel and I felt quite sad as each toy becomes a little individual personality and I don't like to think of any of them lost and alone! I secretly hoped that the first bunny had found a happy home somewhere and not met an untimely end mangled in some postal equipment or dropped out of a plane. Anyway, it turns out that my fears were unjustified as last week this arrived...
and inside, a little battered and squashed but still looking happy I found bunny.
So my faith in the postal service has been restored - quite amazing when you think she has travelled half way around the world and found her way back home again! In view of the fact that she came back I think I'm going to keep her as my lucky mascot. Meanwhile, I'm really pleased to report that this little bunny has reached Jessica at Kerflop who gets a gold star for her patience!
