Crazy exchange from Taija

Today I received this great exchange from Taija from Finland. She sent me a crazy exchange already before Christmas, but it came back to her house. So she sent another one, and this time it arrived safely on my doorstep. Taija sent me a little purse made from lovely heart fabrics, 2 quilt fabrics and a pair of scissors with the cutest Matrushka as a fob. This exchange is so perfect! I'm having a weakness for hearts at the moment, my large scissors weren't cutting probably anymore and I've stitched a floss tag for an exchange that matches perfectly with the brown/pink fabric. (I'll show you when it's received by it's new owner).

Thank you, Taija! I'm very happy with your exchange!!!

Hugs, Simone

My birthday package from Simone!

My birthday package from Simone arrived last night and once again..I am tickled by what I got!

Simone stitched me a lovely Bent Creek design which I love and I can display it either as a wall hanging or as a pillow. I was going to do display it as a wall hanging but my DH, Rex said we don't have any pillows so I am going to display this as a pillow.

Simone also sent some fabric, pins and a great pattern.

Thank you so much Simone I love my birthday package!

Here is a pic. More are on my blog.

My birthday package from Ina

Ina's package arrived on Thursday and I just love everything she sent! The wall hanging Ina made is just precious. Its hanging up now in the entry way. I put my dovos away and started using the scissors Ina sent and boy are they a joy to use! I am having fun looking through the magazine and love all the other goodies too! Thanks so much Ina.

Hugs,
Wendy Jo

Thank you Margaret


I have received this super "sweet" return exchange from Margaret - and I just love it. She stitched the cutest sunshiny Hershey kiss by Cricket Collection - so pretty, and perfect. And she sent a package of Hershey kisses, which DH snagged because they are dark chocolate ;-) And a Clover cutter - my first one! Thank you so much for such a lovely exchange!!

Hugs,
Carol
