    Ditto DannyPenny
    I've only received one package so far but would love to exchange more. What a great "Quilter's Swap" tree it could end up being? FUN, FUN, FUN!

    Patti, what a cute snowman you received from Deb. He makes me smile! Thanks for posting the pictures of the wonderful patchwork ball you sent me and the star and icicle I sent you. I'm into crocheting again now... You did a great job on those pictures!
    Thanks again, Janis

    Here are the pictures of the angels I made

    I used app. 18" of Lace and Tulle
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]53112[/ATTACH]

    layer them together and thread floral wire through them
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]56288[/ATTACH]

    I used a 12" square of fabric, a1" styrofoam ball and I used a small piece of batting to soften the foam
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]63417[/ATTACH]

    wrap fabric around ball and tie with string / embroidery thread
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]63597[/ATTACH]

    ruffle the lace and tulle on the wire and wrap around the neck
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]63762[/ATTACH]

    scrunch up the bottom of the tulle and the white fabric only and cut it off even with the lace
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]64055[/ATTACH]

    make a double bow out of wired ribbon, and using the floral wire, tie the "wings" on
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]64285[/ATTACH]

    final steps are to tie on the hanger with the same floral wire, I used fishing line but you can use ribbon also, once you have added your hanger you are now ready to cut off the excess floral wire

    Thanks Dawn,
    But wait til you see what I got from Beffy-Boo. She is truely and experienced artisian in ceramics. She made me an alien in a spaceship. It has the glittering lights and everything. Pics dont do it justice. I really love the horse ornament she also included. I collect carosel horses.
