Here we go again...this time we're swapping BLACK/WHITE /GRAY. Please send your partner 6 things in any or all of these colos. Remember; it can be anything as long as it is any of these 3 colors. Just 6 things. As always, NO tucks please. Please do enclose a note or card or sticky reminding your partner what swap this is and who it is from. Some of us are in more than one swap at a time and it may be easy to get confused.

Joey, I didn't see this till now. ~ So glad your ankle is healed and your heart is in the process. There is no time limit on grieving. Though it may become less it will always be there. Lost 2 of the important women in my life in the last 2 years, Mom and sister almost a year apart. It has become easier to go about life but there will always be a void that no one else can fill.
Hugs to you sweet sister.
I look forward to the next color swaps with all of you. 
hugs,
Denise

Thank you to all who have emailed me sweet words over the past 2 months. My ankle is well healed and my heart is getting there. Your words have encouraged me. I planned 3 more color swaps and will start the next one soon. Hugs to all, Joey

Oh neat! This is the first time I've seen these types of swaps. They look like fun. I'll have to keep my eye out for the next one.

Ladies, I'm very late closing this swap and I'm so sorry. We've had 3 family deaths in the past 2 weeks and I sprained my ankle and I am just worn out. When it rains, it pours.
Anyway, weeks ago now, Sarah sent me a lovely package with 2 packs of pretty stickers, a blackberry garland, black candles, a pack of black and white patterned craft papers and a whole spool of black and gold ribbon-very elegant. She had each thing wrapped in white paper and tied with black twine and either a big white star button or a delicate, pretty black butterfly (not real butterfly). It was like Christmas. Thank you again Sarah. I will happily use everything you sent me.
Thanks to all of you. This color swap was a little more challenging and y'all were GREAT, as usual. New color swap coming SOON. Hugs, Joey

Hi Joey! Thank you so much for the wonderful black/white/grey package! I was so excited with everything you sent and really enjoyed your wonderful letters! I have the purse hook on my keys (with the red keychain you sent from the red swap and they look perfect together). I already used the hook on the way into work this morning and was able to find my keys without digging in my purse - thank you! The felt flower stickers will definitely come in handy, I am hoping to have some time for crafting this weekend and may put them to use! The coconut air freshener is so cute, I have it in my car and was feeling very tropical this morning. The magnifier is perfect for my current cross stitch project - I really think it is making me go blind making all those tiny X's! The dishcloths came in such an adorable container, I don't want to open them and ruin the presentation, but I will and they will get a lot of use. I am already planning which plants to use my plant markers on. Thank you so much Joey, I really love everything and also love your thoughtfulness in covering for the red swap and all your sweet letters. I hope that you are doing well and that this week will bring some comfort to you in a difficult time. Thank you. <3

Brenda, I recieved the lovely box! Hubby went to pick up the mail and brought it to me before he left to finish work. He said he knew I would want my Farmgirl mail right away! Thank you! Still have to take a picture and post it!

I was fortunate to be swap partners with Joyce of Joyfulmelodies. The mail lady brought my sweet package right to the front door. Beautiful!!! what fun to open this.
Thank you Joyce.

Why this pic is side ways I don't know. Hotpads, seeds, stirrer, scrubber, wash cloth and hand made bag to carry it all. I love it all though.
Thank you, Joyce.

Hi Joey,
I apologize, but there was a bit of a delay in mailing your package. Tax day is the worst day of the year for me, as I am an accountant!! So I didn't get it in the mail on time. I thought I could get it in the mail on the 14th but that wasn't possible, but it is on the way to you and I hope you like everything!
Hope you have a great weekend!
Sarah

Mine is in the mail too. She didn't say how long it would take. Maybe we could just meet at the border. LOL! MB

Kristi, thank you so much for the delightful box I received today! I love the black and white notepads and magnet....so classy! The precious white angel went on my table with an Easter display. I will have have to hide the chocolate and vanilla creme cookies from my husband!!!! And, the black and gray soft, soft, boa scarf is dashing ! I have been modeling it since the postman arrived! The play on words (Earl "Grey" Tea) for the color gray was too funny.jpg)
