Magic Ball Swap

Hi everyone!

I have been involved in so many swaps over the summer, its been lovely!

I was paired up with Leah at Faith76.

Just look what greeted my eyes when I opened the package, love the knitted corsage:


Delicious edible treats:


Super knitting supplies:

Then I had to call my daughter (who loves swaps as much as I do!) to start unwinding the ball!

So here we go - yummy smellies:



Jewellery and keyring:

Lots of sewing supplies and ribbons:

More wool and ribbon:

Just look at these swish gardening gloves, I really will feel glamorous when planting up the daffodil bulbs:

This handpainted silk bag contains yummy potpourri:

And I was so delighted to receive this hand-knitted heart (smells of heavenly lavendar):


And here is everything together - isnt it amazing?



I feel so lucky Leah to have had you as my swap partner, thanks so so much for everything, you have spoilt me rotten!!

Here is what I sent:


Hope you liked it!

Fabric swap

Morning all!

Still catching up with everything since my enforced break from blogging - so here we are with the super fabric swap items I received from the lovely Jules at Teapot Cottage!


Look at the care she took over wrapping the goodies she sent to me:

And my goodness the contents were awesome!  Look at this lovely wooden heart:

These yummy ribbons will be put to good use I can assure you:


The fabric is absolutely super:


And how lucky am I?  Not just one fabric bundle, but two:


And just look at these buttons:


And all topped off with this beautiful card:


This is what I sent to my lovely swap partner:

Jules, I hope you liked my parcel as much as I loved yours- thanks so much for being such a lovely (and patient!) swap partner!
