Table topper swap gift..

In the previous post I showed you what I had received in the table runner swap from Tereasa and this is the table topper I made for Jenny......this pattern is from a gorgeous book called "From The Heart" by Natalie Bird.....and boy was this one a challenge, I have never done anything round before, nor had I done a scalloped border or made a bias binding, but anyway I had a bash....I did learn a few things, which was great, but most of all I loved making and I this really enjoyed the challenge and Jenny loved it....head still fuzzy, thanks to everyone for all their lovely messages....you are all just so thoughtful...

Lucky Me....

Wow...what a week....new system being installed at the Dealership, very long days and today I feel all fuzzy in the head, "the flu"...yuk......I am a part of an on line stitching group..and last night was "opening night" for our first swap of the year, a table runner, and yes this is what I received...made by Tereasa, I just love the colours, I was just so thrilled last night when I opened my parcel, and I did receive it the day before and I was very strong and did not open it......Tereasa thank you so much I am over the moon, what you have made is just perfect........hope you all have a great day ....

Blown away...

Look what I have received in the post from Julie ..... I joined Maree's "Redwork Cushion Swap" a couple of months ago....and Julie has made all these magnificent gifts for me....I not only received this fabulous cushion I also received ...a tea holder filled with tea....a heat pack...a needle holder...I have one the lottery I think.....Julie's workmanship is exceptional....Julie thank you so very much for all my wonderful goodies I have been very spoilt and I am just so thrilled with all my gifts you have been so generous...........Maree well done to you for running such a wonderful swap.......

A squishy for me

Last night when I came home from work there was a 'squishy' waiting for me...and I quickly opened it up and look what was inside my 'Spring Swap' gifts....made by Tammy...how cute is this little bunny, she seems to be saying please hug me....now I must give here a name, any ideas??........also in my parcel was an Easter tea towel, I just loved themed tea towels, a very happy spring swag which is now hanging in my sewing room, and some yummy (yes flavoured) Avon lip balm...Tammy thank you so very much for all my gorgeous gifts I love them all.....I would like to also say a huge thankyou to our 'Spring Swap' Hostess, Linda, what a remarkable lady she is, I have seen so many wonderful gifts popping up in blogland, once again Linda congratulations on a very successful swap .....Lets raise out glass to Linda.....and I also raise mine in thanks to you Tammy.....

My parcels are packed and they were sent yesterday in the post...they should hopefully be leaving the country very soon.....Linda has conducted a "Spring Swap" and what I have seen so far, it has been a huge success....Linda has these swaps down to a very fine art I think...everything is perfectly timed, she is one amazing lady......thanks Linda this has been so much fun, I ventured out of my little square once again.....
