The world is paved with good intentions! Bah. Sorry Lindyline, your package didn't go out until today. I had to wait till payday today. It is now on its way to Australia...unless it finds some handsome, hunky, ripped aussie pkg on the way.

No worries, it will get here when it gets here. I will need to learn

Well, finally... my tote is finished. I have to say that one of the greatest things that I hold dear is chocolate. I sure hope TangleJaw enjoys it as much as I do. I really had fun with this bag. I wish it showed-up better, but I am thrilled with the paisley stripe across the front - it was cut to 1 1/2 times the width of the bag, then I put running stitches on each side & gathered it slightly before attaching to the pieces. I will do this on more bags. It's a neat touch of texture.

Lindyline,

Yours arrived in my mail yesterday!! It's a beauty and the doggies are awesomeness! Thank you so much for the nice note, I don't think I've ever seen any aussie fabrics either -- probably because their wiggle butts would just slide right off.

My puppies thank you so much for the lamb snackies too.

This is such a beautiful tote, and you did an awesome job. Thank you again!!

Every bag I have seen is incredible....................Thank you all for completing this swap, especially when the format changed the day after Swap partners were assigned. If anyone does not receive their bag please let me know.
