Box Swap

I have taken part in a box swap run by Cass from Snailblazer. What a fun idea. Cass made up a box of goodies - fabric, papers, ribbons, hand-made items, buttons, vintage stuff, then she posted it off to the next person on the list, they take out 3 things and replace them with three things and they post to the next person on the list and so on until the last person who posts it back to Cass.

I took out the gorgeous VW bag, a vintage fabric panel and an altered Golden book note book. Ads - I left the magnets for you!

I put in:

- 2 Patchwork mags

- a wallhanging pattern with some furnshing fabric swatches that the animals in the pattern would look cute in

- 5 vintage dressmaking patterns

Lemonade Stand Quilt Swap - Sent and Received!

I have taken part in the Lemonade Stand Doll Quilt Swap organised at Ubercrafty.



I have received an adorable quilt from Katherine in the USA. (Katherine doesn't have a blog that I can find, but if I do, I will link it in here). The pattern is 'cobblestones' and it is a grogeous green and pink. This was Katherine's first doll quilt believe it or not! Fantastic job and is well loved. The back is also gorgeous, using coordinating fabrics from the front. Katherine also kindly sent some lovely stickers as gifts for Kya and Mali. I have just popped a quick pic of the quilt here - The girls haven't seen it yet as they are with Nanna and Honey for the long weekend.


I have sent my quilt off - I made my bright little quilt for Tara - hope that it arrives soon.
