Hey sisters!! Here it is a new year and it's time for Sweet Seasons once again. I will be taking over our beloved Swap this year while Shannon takes care of her precious new baby, her other sweet children and herself. For those who are new to this swap, you are assigned on partner, and each season (4 times a year) you send a box of treasures to them. This swap is a lot of fun and gives us something to look forward to! However, if you sign up you MUST stick with it throughout the year, so it is enjoyable to all who participate.
Sign up end Feb. 2nd
Partners posted: Feb. 5th
Boxes mailed by:
Spring: March 9th
Summer: June 8th
Fall: Sept. 7th
Winter: Dec. 7th
Please try to make your gift box special, by filling it with wonderful treasures a farmgirl would like, keeping in mind the Season. Examples would be: notecards, chocolate, homemade items, figureines, candles, ornaments, pens, anything your partner may like. The USPS Flat Rate Boxes might be a good idea to use for sending your gift boxes each season.
Let's have some fun!!!

He thought it was the perfect banner for us, Krista. Thanks again. I put it up even though Christmas was over, as I wanted to enjoy it (and the tree and sled too).

Oh Jill I'm so glad you got your package! I found the red truck banner as soon as they put Christmas stuff out in stores and just had to have it for you! Let me know what your husband says. I'm happy to hear you love your package! Thanks so much for swapping with me! Have a fantastic new year!

Krista, I found your wonderful package in our mailbox today! Thank you so much the crocheted Christmas tree is amazing!! And you did it without a pattern! I love the red truck banner as well and can't wait for my husband to see it, as he has a red 62 International pickup truck with sides like that.
Thank you so much for towels, they are so soft. I love the Christmas tree ornaments and will put them on the tree. I'll save the bags for next year. The sled decoration is great too. Thank you so much, you put so much thought and time into my gifts. You have been a wonderful partner and hope you have a great New Year starting off 2019.

Thank You RoDonna for the very nice package. I just about bought the same stickers at Hobby Lobby last week. I love the hat and scarf, both will be perfect when those cold north winds blow. I loved the entire package and hope you had a Merry Christmas.

Thank you so much Jill for the wonderful winter package! It put a smile on my face! My oldest was helping me open the package and once he seen the cupcake liners he ran to the kitchen and got out the muffin tin. So we made some muffins with the adorable Santa liners. I'm also super excited to make cookies this next week with my family and the cute new cookie cutter. I have never used a layered one like that before. I also love the Christmas ornament. Its beautiful. We also hung the window clings and pinned on buttons last night. Thank you so so much for being an amazing swap partner. I have really enjoyed it. Yours should arrive soon. Sorry I'm a bit late. The crochet project took longer than I expected. Many hugs. Thank you!

Did you receive your Christmas box? I mailed it out well over a week ago. I know you have had strike issues but not sure if it's still affecting you. Hope your box arrived safe.

Weeks ago I got the most amazing box from Sarah. Like someone else commented, my daughter & I made a special evening of opening it. She had just been diagnosed with Lyme disease and was feeling a bit down, so thought this would be fun. Plus, previously, I always shared my Farmgirl adventures with my Gramma, she has passed on now - this was my 1st Farmgirl thing without her. Without even knowing, Sarah included something special just for my daughter. We had a wonderful time, it felt like a bottomless box, each item was individually and beautifully wrapped, intertwined with silk flowers and fall leaves. Some of you may know, Sarah sometimes makes these incredible & intricate dioramas, and she made an awesome Halloween one for me - my whole family loves it! She also made a Halloween Fairy, isn't she darling?! A beautiful black, cozy scarf that looks great! A puzzle I can't wait to work on, bath salts, fall decorations, adorable squirrel salt & pepper, coffee mug, note paper and for my darling daughter, a bear, agate ring & nice bath soaps. Thank you so much Sarah, we loved everything in here and it is all sprinkled about the house!Sorry I took soooo long to post!
  
Thank you & Farmgirl hugs Sarah, your box really made Katie & I feel special

Krista, yes they are for the seasons I finally figured out. They spell home with the O being the seasonal block, pumpkin, Turkey, Christmas Snowman etc. It took me a couple minutes to figure it out, I was looking for O and could not find it anywhere in the box but I finally figured it out. It is so cute!
Big Hugs,
Debbie
