I know it is early for Valentine's Day, but sometimes there are good craft items done for Christmas that you can use for the most romantic day of the year...so here goes!!!
*********************************************************************
Partners:
coaloha--BusyBeeMary
Beth Jones--Bonnie Ellis
BusyBeeMary--Killarney
fille de ferme--Beth Jones
We will make a Valentine Village, but here is the catch!!!! You will only have 1, yes one, partner...here is how it will work::
You will create 3 different houses,( in the style of the previous village swaps) to reflect the sweetness of Valentines day!!
Make them around 4 inches to 5 inches and decorate like crazy for the wonderful day of Valentine's.
Then you will include a hanging cord and 3 decorated clothes pins to complete the look!!!
At the end of the sign up day, you will be assigned ONE partner and send all the prettiness to that one partner and she in turn will send the same out to you!!
Sounds like fun? I sure hope so!
I will angel so no worries about not getting your swap!!
Sign up ends January 9th~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Mail out no later than Jan.20th
Get started now!!
You can never be to kind! |

I failed to mention and beautiful as well, were the little Sunbonnet Sue cards like larger ATC cards that Maddie had drawn and painted!! They were marvelous and beautifully drawn as well..Lovely soft muted colors....Thank you so much Maddie...Brings back sweet memories of a sweet quilt my aunt made for me many years ago.....Smiles, Beth The cards were attached with clothes pins between the shoppes..Just precious!!
