Posted - May 06 2010 : 05:32:30 AM HEY FARMGIRLS: If you have not received a needle keep by the end of the swap or have not heard from your partner, send me an email and I will make sure you receive one. I don't want anyone to miss out. Smiles, Beth
*****THIS SWAP HAS BEEN SUCH FUN!!! I HOPE ALL OF YOU ENJOYED IT AS MUCH AS I DID!!******
Do you always lose your needles or have several opened packages in your sewing drawer or basket? I do, sooooo...How about having a FELT SEWING NEEDLE BOOK Swap!
A good site photo of one is: www.craftstylish.com/item/10227/how-to-stitch-up-a-felt-needle-book
The outside can be decorated as you creatively wish. The inside leaves of the needle book are flannel. They are usually about 3" x 5" when folded. I think this is a sweet, old time hand craft!!

Posted - Jul 08 2010 : 6:10:55 PM Heather B., your BEAUTIFUL Needle Keeper arrived today and I absolutely love it!! The fabric you chose is so lovely, as well as the sweet lace and button. I also noticed the beautiful embroidery edging on the pages! Wow....you do beautiful work and I have already put it to good use! I love that you put safety pins and needles in it all ready to get to work! And the fat quarters are awesome colors!! Wow....I'm thinking about what I want to use them for. Maybe a couple of Needle Keepers for gifts and enough left over for a quilted pillow cover. Hmmmm....so many ideas! Heather, thank you for swapping with me. It was so much fun to have two swap partners on this one! I sent yours on Tuesday, so hopefully you'll have it today or tomorrow!! Hugs and Smiles, Lin Let's stay in touch!!
