I was thinking, we are all so very versatile and love to craft in many different ways. Would anyone be interested in having a "Swap what you enjoy making" swap? Nothing big, just smaller things? Maybe we could put a price cap on it?? Say an item you enjoy making, that you would sell for between $5- 10? or something like that?
Sign ups until June 26, Ship July 17. :)

Alicia, I'm so glad you liked everything-- and boy was I excited when I came home from my trip and got your package. In case everyone doesn't know, Alicia is a seamstress extraordinaire! I got my very own Henrietta dish towel! And a beautiful embroidered tote which is now my roomy new knitting bag -- the color is so pretty as is the "lovey tree" embroidery. Alicia even included a pretty little skirt for my granddaughter, which she loves, and some blueberry preserves which I may share with my family, but I haven't decided yet, blueberry being my favorite! :)
Thank you dear Alicia!
Happy Day!
Peace in our hearts, peace in the world

oh I see so many really awesome things! It is really so very special to see how talented we each are in our own ways. Thank you so much ladies for making this swap so wonderful. And now I must apologize. For those of you who know me my daughter has been ill pretty well since the end of June. I have not been able to do things the way I like to and one of those things happens to be getting to the post office! Well I finally got one package off today! Amy your should be there within the next couple of days. But Diana I need your address again sweetie. I cannot find it for the life of me! If you don't see this I'll be sending you an email later tonight but I happen to be mobile and just left the post office and it concerns me. I am so very very sorry.
Many Blessings- Alicia #5232

It was a pre-printed panel and I had fun making it. Each cookie is different. LOL!

Thank you, Joan. I'm so glad you like what I sent. The scrappy table runner quilt can add a little color to the center of your table or hang on the wall - your choice. And I hang an Advent Calendar in my kitchen like the one I sent. My grand kids like taking the "cookies" out of the daily pockets and putting them in the bowl (or you can do that the other way and take them out of the bowl and put them in the pockets). And I hope the cup warmer comes in handy.
Here is a pic I have of the Advent Calendar and cookies. The picture doesn't show that the bowl is 3-D and the cookies all fit in the bowl.
Here is the scrappy table runner.

Thanks Marilyn, it's not a chipboard book. I make these albums from scratch.

Here's a picture of the bee-u-ti-ful scrapbook that Joan made for me. I envy people like Joan who can take the art of paper-crafting to such extreme beautiful-ness. Every page is so different - creative, artistic, unique - that I can't decide what pictures to use it for. I love looking at it again and again just like it is. Every page has a pull-out of some kind. So interesting. Here are pics of a few of the pages.
   
Thank you thank you thank you. Love all the travel-themed pages.

Thank You Portia for the wonderful knitted cowls. They will be perfect for when the weather starts to get cooler. I really love the colors of them! This was a fun swap!
