Good evening everyone!

Sue and I are here at mine for our crafty evening and our lovely daughters have helped us out by doing the draw for the Diamond Jubilee Swap!






So here are the partners:

Sandie and BeeHappy

KCs Court and Pamela and Lottie

FeltbyRae and Peonies and Pennies

Marina and Twinkle Star

LissyLou and Krafty Cupcake

The Vintage Hobby House and Fruitful Fusion

Kashi and Crafts@Home

The Undomesticated Scientist and Busybusybeejay

Moonstruckcreations and Anne

and then Saphy and Moonstruckcreations - Im doing two as we ended up with an odd number!

Please take time to visit your partner's blog and send them an email to introduce yourself!  Please let us know if you have any questions etc.

Quick reminder of what to do!!
5 items for your swap partner to include:

  • something handmade (either by you or another crafter)
  • something relating to the Diamond Jubilee - there will be lots of souveneir type things around. Doesnt have to be anything expensive - there will be pens, cards etc available
  • Some crafty-type supplies (buttons, ribbon etc)
  • Something edible - of course!
  • And one other item of your choice which you think your partner would love.
Deadline for your partner to receive your parcel is 31 May so that they have their goodies in plenty of time for the Jubilee Celebrations.

Thanks so much to you all for joining in the fun - cant wait to see what everybody gets up to!

Final call for the Diamond Jubilee Swap!

Hi everyone, long time no see!

I have been very very busy at work - lots of crafting going on, swaps received, awards received (thanks to all of you!) but no time to blog - hopefully will catch up soon.

But in the meantime, its time for the final call for the Diamond Jubilee Swap!



The rules - such as they are - are as follows:

You need to be a follower of both of our blogs as we are organising this swap jointly.

  • And one other item of your choice which you think your partner would love.
We will be keeping the swap open to entrants until February 29th, and will post regarding who is partnered with who by the end of the first week in March. You will then have up until May 31 to ensure your partner receives the goodies you send! In this way your partner will have received the parcel before the Diamond Jubilee celebrations.

Thanks so much to all of those of you who have already joined us!

Diamond Jubilee Swap

Good evening!
I have just spent a lovely evening with my bestest friend Sue.  And as today is the 60th Anniversary of the Accession to the Throne by the Queen we thought - what about organising a Diamond Jubilee Swap?

(Image above is taken from Google)

We really loved organising the Midsummer Night's Dream Swap last year so thought we would love to go ahead!

The rules - such as they are - are as follows:

You need to be a follower of both of our blogs as Sue and I are organising this swap jointly. 

5 items for your swap partner to include:
  • something handmade (either by you or another crafter)

If you would like to join us - and we really hope you will - please leave a comment!
