Thank you for all the extras.
    I remembered to take pictures of some, but not all, of my swaps before I packed them up. Fortunately, Cuppy's was one of them that I did take pictures of!

    My 14 yo daughter, Ellie, loved helping me pick out fabric and ideas for my swap partners. She really wanted to "be a part" of all of the fun. She loves everything Celtic and asked if she could make crosses to add as an extra for my packages. I hope no one minds. It made her very happy. (Her mama, too.)

    Default Some pictures for your viewing pleasure....

    First is some snow pictures. Then is "Sadie". There's a wolf at the door.......lol. Doesn't she look pitiful? She left the door and then went and was rolling in the snow. She's so phoney.

    Default My pin cushion from Pat (Nhnative)

    Today I received the cutest squirrel pin cushion ever. I just love it. Many nice items added. I got some of the acorns she makes and 2 beautiful pins,some cute cow earrings, candy (my husband already claimed) A really nice homemade acorn pot holder, some nice postcards of where she lives,a handy notebook I'm putting in my truck as I just ran out of paper in the one in my truck. A card I think maybe she made? A FQ of cute fabric. I took the pictures on the fabric. I'm going to make a fall/thanksgiving center piece using the squirrel and acorns and maybe the pot holder.I tried to get pictures at different angles of the squirrel. Thanks so much Pat. I love it all very much. Hugs Mary

    Oh my goodness! Look at those little acorns! Absolutely darling! I want one (or 3)! Great package. Also, the one received by Cuppy. I, too, love all things Celtic! Wonderful packages -- lucky ladies!

    I received a very special pc today from Pat nhnative. I just think the owl is the sweetest thing. I can stick pins in the base and don't have to stick the owl. The potholder is very nice too. I think it will be a decoration. It's too pretty to use. The little acorns are adorable. I forgot to take a pic of the hummingbird bookmark and of course, the candy was eaten. DD and DH made me share with them. When it comes to Ferrero Rocher, I don't like to share. Pat sent sunflower buttons and so many extras. She took a lot of time to make all of my gifts and I do so appreciate it. Thanks so much.

    I have always sent the hostess the required pms and the gifter a pm thank you. It's just habit, but I have to give positive feedback. I must start doing that.

    Today I am actually feeling good. Whatever that mess is, I hope none of you have to experience it.

    Mary your squirrel is so cute, I just love him. You to got a wonderful gift from nhnative. She also sent me a notebook too. DD took off with that. I also forgot to mention the beaded pins. I really like getting them. I've got quite a collection started. I'm gonna have DH make me shelves for all of my pc
