I'm a little excited for this swap and am hoping someone out there may be interested in participating with me!

A little history behind this swap; both my grandfathers were adopted, my family was never really sure of our heritage. My husband was also adopted, so he didn't know his either. So, this last year we completed our DNA testing and were excited to learn about ourselves. I'm English and Scottish! As I'm learning a bit more, I came across the word: Haberdashery! I didn't know what it meant, but I knew I loved it, it spoke to my heart!! As I googled the definition - low and behold!! No wonder it spoke to my heart!! It's an English word for something we FARMGIRLS love to do!! (it was also a north american reference to a mens shop with accessories, but we'll forget that one for the time being!)

For the swap, please include:

2 small pieces of fabric or cutter quilt
2-3 pieces of lace
2 pieces of ribbon
2-3 other (notions or embellishments) such as:
buttons
thread
embroidery floss
wooden spools
yoyo's
measuring tape
wooden clothespins
needles

Anything you can think of that a farmgal could use for sewing, slow stitching, scrapbooking, etc.

Wrap it up pretty, use an old tin, a fabric pouch, be creative!

Below are a few pictures of ideas:






To sign up, please leave a note in the thread below.

Sign ups through November 15th.

Mail out by November 20th.

If you sign up and are unable to follow through, please let me know as soon as possible so we can make adjustments.

Wishing you all a haberdashery kind of day! :-)

Thank You Becki for the lovely package. The fabric is so fun and will be great for a pillow for the camper. I love the box.

This was such a fun swap.

Darlene, I got the package. Thank you very much. The picture doesn't do it justice. I am about to start teaching sewing to a couple of young girls, the notions and sewing supplies will come in handy.

Thank you again.
