    Mary,
    Thanks for reposting your pic, I did put at top of my post with pics that you're the only one of people I sent to who had posted pic..but ours was a "side swap". I still have my lil "treat" you sent me sitting on display for all to see. I don't think I will ever use it as a pincushion, it's too cute!
    On the lil bowls, I use card stock cut into shape in between fabric, attach fabric to card stock with glue stick, folding small edge around to back of card stock shapes. Then glue stick 2 of them together, back to back, right side of fabrics showing. Let dry, and I hand sew them into the bowl shape using invisible thread and a whip stitch.
    Lynnie, the star block ornys are fabric, folded and put together with glue stick. I have extra patterns if you would like one. My friend who taught these classes made the pattern, and said it is fine to share it.
    Take care all,
    Kif

I also made yoyo Christmas trees with buttons in between the yoyos, but for some reason I didn't take pics of them...I sent a yoyo/button tree, one of the quilt squres, and the lil fabric bowls filled with candy to my swapees. Here are a few pics of what I sent:

I am only saying that because I see a few folk have posted that the post office says an ornie was delivered and -it has not been acknowledged. wasn't me. OK. done whining. got a dirty kitchen floor that won't scrub itself. I can't post pics either.

    I think I forgot to post this pix of ornaments received, threw away the envelope and don't know who to thank, but I saw a similar ornament a couple times, so I am confused and ashamed that I didn't post. My computer tells me I took the pix on 10/27. My apologies. I love them both. Thank you thank you. I am trying to upload the pix and cannot seem to get it done. Will try again in anotehr posting.

    nice ornaments love the way the heart was made.
    kiffie, I love those ornaments, so neat and nice, and love the bowls, would love the pattern when you get a chance.
    cheerio...what's the matter, no automatic floor cleaner, it's being stubborn today and won't clean itself!! give it an extra doze of ammonia for being so bad, bad floor! I had such a hard time with my floor being so bad, I got outside help to train it better. Now it cleans itself every three weeks when the lady comes and yells at it.( I can't do it myself, due to back problems).

    Judy those are very pretty. I don't remember seeing them before. But you know how peoples memories get as we get older.lol.Your welcome kiffie,I reposted so people could see the tree ornament. It is so cute.For the last couple years I only put up the top piece of my fake tree. That is about 3 ft. tall maybe less. This year I am putting my homemade only ornaments on it. I will try to remember to take a picture to post. Have a good day everyone.

    First, an apology, I've had my ornaments ready to mail, but was dealing with health issues with my husband from the 1st through last week, just did not get them mailed on the 5th. They WILL be going in the mail tomorrow.

    Second, I wanted to share a picture of the one I received from Brandy (Regina). She had my name last year also, so the one of the left is last years ornament and the one on the right is this years.
