There is a story….two weeks ago I sent these off to my 6 Items Swap Partner Jenny…..they did have a little way to travel but only to QLD…

after 10 days…..there were a few emails…. has it arrived? …no….I was beginning to think the parcel may have been lost…we had all checked with the PO…nothing…………..

it was now 15 days since I had sent the parcel…and guess what.. Tuesday it rocked up on Jen’s door…..(I could not have asked for a better day for the parcel to arrive as Jen did need a little cheering up, if you have been reading Jens blog you will know why…)..

So…these are the goodies I had made ……

Thanks Maree it was a fantastic swap…..xx

Happy Thursday (can you believe it) three sleeps…

Take Care Peg….

Keep your Christmas-heart open all the year round.

  7. Peg, that was lucky your parcel arrived safely. I am waiting on a parcel that was sent from a swap back in October. It has been given to a new home I would think. A bit sad really that someone has taken it or that it has been lost in the mail....

  12. The postman is playing with our minds this year Peg. My SSCS swap only just got to Canada after over a month. It is so upsetting when you think our treasures have been lost. Geeat timing by the sounds of it though. The heat bag is glorious, too nice to use for that. Merry Christmas Peg, Tracee xx
