For this swap, I thought we would stop and think about the word Blessed for what we all love and enjoy! I am overwhelmed so many times for my blessings!!

This swap we will take the word "Blessed" and break it done letter by letter B-L-E-S-S-E-D!
Now for each letter we will include in a package a surprise that begins with a B.......maybe some buttons, a small book, a bumble bee stamp, then the letter L.....maybe a linen handkerchief, a ladybug, a length of lace.....
E....earrings, you get the picture!! Right?
Maybe craft supplies would start with one of the letters......Just make your box fun and interesting. We will have plenty of time to come up with just the right thing. You may make some of your letter gifts. Just have fun!!
Sign up ends April 17th
Mail out May 10th
Happy Crafting and hunting!
You can never be too kind!

Just checking in after a few days of low tech R&R. Was wondering if there has been a decision for next swap? I don't see a new thread so I'm assuming it is still being pondered. Would love to participate but as someone suggested, would appreciate a month or two before deadline to ship so I have more time to collect up some thoughtful and hopefully more meaningful gifts for my partner. Please add me to the new swap when decided. I also vote for F.A.R.M.G.I.R.L. And if no one has been elected to host, I might be willing to do so, just educate me on the process and let me know. I can lead or I can fall in-step and follow. . . either way, it's all good!
HAPPY TRAILS, y'all!
SouthForty, MJFG#3794

I came home to a wonderful surprise today! Miss Shannon sent me some beautiful handmade BLESSED items 
B: Bunting. Oh my goodness! Is that adorable! I cannot wait to hang it up.
L: Lavender Bath Tea. Perfect for this achy body from all the weeding I have been doing :)
E: Eye Mask. Wow, is that cute! You are so talented Shannon!
S: Southwest Seasoning Salt. I can't wait to try this :)
S: Salt Scrub, another goodie I cannot wait to try :)
E: Eucalyptus Foot Soak. This is perfect as I have been on my feet alot (mostly in muck boots which do not feel good on my feet) I look forward to using this!
D: Dishcloth. It is so pretty Shannon and I love the colors you chose.
Thank you SO MUCH for all of the goodies! I love that each item is handmade by you, it makes them even more special :
I have been blessed with a very creative swap partner
And a big thank you to Miss Beth for hosting

Shannon, no, no, no!!! I know that you are true to your word and NEVER thought that you wouldn't follow through! Please do not think that! I know that you have had a hard time and am not worried at all whether you were able to swap or not. Please do not think I thought you wouldn't follow through.

April,
Thank you for your offer, I appreciate it :) Please don't feel like you need to send me a box, I understand that so many things happen in each of our lives and health and family are priority. I did convey to Shannon that if she couldn't send a box that it was okay by me. I really didn't want to add any more stress. Thank you for thinking of me :)

Dearest Farmgirl Friends, Boy howdy, life does get the best of us all at times, lord knows I've had mine as well... days where you wonder if you will be able to muster 5 more minutes of energy, moments when you're not sure how you will survive the day, the hour, the minute. I send love, hugs and positive healing thoughts out there to all Farmgirls! May love, light and beauty surround us all!
Rodonna, Sending love and hugs your way... If you don't mind, please also allow me to send Lisa's blessed box this go around... I would be honored.
Lisa, if you'd like, please email me your address, as I would love to send you a blessed box this week!
Much love and many blessings to all,
April

Christine, I'm glad you received my package. I wonder if it would be possible for you to send me a picture of the bookmark. I had meant to submit it for the beginner cross stitch badge and forgot to take the photo. Thanks,

I would be happy to host another swap, but if there is someone who would like to host it, I will be glad for you to do it! If there is, I would suggest that maybe there be a month or two inbetween the Blessed swap and the other swap.Give everyone time to regroup and think of new and exciting things to send!! I really enjoyed hosting this swap and am so pleased by the generosity of all involved!! Whatever is given, if it is given from the heart is a special thing!!!! Smiles, Beth
