Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for the great bag and goodies. I love the bag. Girls the bag is hand dyed and the Trick or
Treat cross stitch can be removed if I would like to use it for another season. A wonderful job all around.  Thank you again Jennifer, I hope you liked your package.
Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

HI Sheila,
Yes I did make the apron. Thought you would enjoy it. I got the Vermont newsletter today. Will be reading it soon. Thank you for such a fun swap. The maple syrup is really being enjoyed. I made pumpkin waffles and it was so delicious on those waffles. What a treat you sent me.

Sylvia, I got your package on Thursday you way out did your self, I need to learn how to post pictures to this site. I LOVE LOVE the apron did you make it? I wanted to wear it as soon as I saw it. And those cute little black and white pumpkins put a smile on my face they are in my kitchen by the window. Like I said before we have had some snow already, it is gone now but we have very cold rain. This swap was great the pick me up I needed, and my foot is mending doctor said it looks like I will not need surgery, I never knew a broken foot could take so long. Happy Autumn everyone. Thank you so much Sylvia

I received my package from Jennifer today, It was such a neat and yummy package. The other one I said I got was from a different swap. Sorry for the bad reporting.
Anyway this was fun and I really enjoyed it. The Lindt pumpkin spice chocolate balls are really yummy. I love all the Pumpkin Spice pot holder, tea towell and pot holders and it was a very nice package. Thank you Jennifer.

I got a wonderful package from Deb yesterday, just in time for my hosting of my bookclub. I used some of the items to decorate and it looked great. There was such a lovely lot to unwrap, it was quite exciting. I put out the tea towel and used the orange lace cloth in my bread basket. The GF crackers were delicious. We usually do appys and desserts for bookclub, so they were perfect. The candy's I put out with the desserts. I'm looking forward to reading the magazines. I used the pine cones in my table center piece. I should have taken a picture of the table as it looked great (if I do say so myself), but unfortunately it slipped by with the arrival of my friends. And thank you for the tea, I didn't put that out as I wanted it for myself ;)
Thank you for being such a great swap partner. This was such a fun swap, thanks for organizing it Julie.

I neglected to tell you that Jill made my trick or treat bag and I love it.
I am using it year round for my small knitting projects! As I love Halloween!
Thank you so much Jill for a touch of homemade!

My package full of treats arrived from Canada, Jill filled my trick or treat bag full of goodies. I am gluten and wheat free so she sent Candy I could eat. Halloween ribbon, a little Witchy Hanging, the bag was so cute, as well as the Pumpkin Masters Booklet. It is perfect as we are having a Halloween Party and having a Pumpkin Contest so the booklet will be nice to have.
Thank you so much Jill for everything, it was great being your partner again!
Your package went out Friday, should be there anytime. It took your package to me eight day, so hopefully my package will get there in the same amount of time.
Happy Halloween!
Hugs,
Deb

Lee, my goodness sweet girl, you out did yourself with my lovely gifts. A really cute spider bowl filled with candy, stickers, coloring book, pumpkin mask, pumpkin seeds and peanuts, stamps. I love the stir straws, will try with my kids in the morning. Then such a pretty canvas bag with even more goodies. Love the napkins and hand towel. The pumpkin bars are too cute and look yummy. The ghost ice cube tray will be washed and filled tonight. I love them! Love the pumpkin on a stick paper craft. The light up pen and note cards are so sweet. Excited to use them. I think my favorite is the vintage looking sign "it's all about the candy". Thank you for all the lovely items. My kids all have dibs on many items already. You really made my day special.

Hi Heather,
I just got back from vacation and found your box waiting for me! I absolutely love everything! The crochet ghosts are adorable and the candy yummy. I love the bath and body works lotion and body wash-love that store and it's products. The little aprons are so very cute and I love, love, the little shovel with the adorable witch. Thank you so much! Everything was packaged so adorably too! Thank you for such a fun swap and for being such a great swap partner!
hugs,
