I really wanted the colette book and a couple patterns, but I can't complain. I got a Kindle Fire and many other little goodies. I've already used the Kindle for my stitching purposes. It works perfectly for tracing embroidery patterns. Haha. I've done lots of reading too, of course. ;)Beccahttp://www.beccascreativenotions.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593765464158159022.post-40289836119874930492011-12-30T17:51:13.082+00:002011-12-30T17:51:13.082+00:00Yay, I got the Colette book too, thank goodness fo...Yay, I got the Colette book too, thank goodness for the Amazon wishlist!
