I ironed and cut, bagged and have the sample along with. I've got a pulled muscle in my neck or I would have ran to the post office today. Oh well, it's raining and didn't feel like getting out anyway. :XD:
I hope mine are festive enough. I think whoever gets them will like them, it was hard to choose which to send. I did have a few I didn't want to use, just not pretty enough. Ha! "When you care enough to send the very best!" Ha! :thumbup:

Mine should be going out first thing in the morning. :)
I had to order the fabric for this swap, since I normally wash all of mine as soon as I buy it. I picked some really fun, bright colors, and it was hard to let go of it! In fact, there was one that was so yummy I almost ate it! :lol: :wink:

I'm with you!! And I should ask: I found some absolutely GORGEOUS batik that I loved so much I bought the rest of the bolt. It's these luscious shades of indigo and royal and deep, deep teal blues. I can't get enough of it!! It isn't "festive", but it's the prettiest I've seen in a long time. Should I include some of that or choose something else? Ladies, you decide.

Well I can't say mine are really festive but they are very pretty. I had to use what I had on hand, the closest QS is at least 20 miles away. But I did order these off ebay about a year ago and I fell in love with them. I would say do what you feel is best for you. IF you truely like them as much as you say you do them by all means, keep them! I mean, no one else knows what they are missing and you will if you give them away. Soooo....up to you Sis!

Mine are not too festive but I think they are beautiful. I hope whoever receives them thinks so too. I bought an extra 1/2 yard of each one, that way I could chop the rest up and send them without crying! I hate to send the last of any thing I have. Hmmmmmmmmm sounds kind of shelfish I guess.
