Oooohhh, I'm so excited Dana!!!! I have been eagerly waiting for the mailman everyday, he is probably wondering why I'm not done with the "yard work" yet!!! :) The yard is mowed and the flowerbeds weeded, so now I have to find a new excuse to stand in the yard! :) Drats! Hugs Dana!

Karrieann and Debbie, that is adorable, love the robin's egg blue shade! The lace making up the flower is a nice touch! Hugs!

Dana I received your package today!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) I absolutely adore it! Pink is one of my fave colors and anything with a flower is automatically a favorite, I'm an english chintz kinda gal. And the thimble bag..............I believe everything in ones home should be beautiful, so this was so precious to me! They will be treasured forever, believe me. And what a sweet note you included, oh and now I have to try needle felting too! :) Sounds like so much fun! And I don't want to forget the sweet notepad, it is so pretty as well! It fits perfectly in my violin case for those quick music notations. Thank you, I love it all and your friendship will not be forgotten. I hope we can swap again in the future! Hugs and many thank yous!

Heather Nicole, I got your package this morning. I just love the needlebook! Making a little cozy cottage with flowers and butterflies out of it was such a cute idea. You did such perfect little stitching all around it too! The little stitched details on the pages really added a finishing touch. Thank you for the teas and the embroidery floss. I liked the sentiment on your pretty card, life is great! I agree with Lin, I would like to post a photo, but it may take a day or two to figure it out. Anyway, thanks again for such a beautiful piece of handwork. You,ve been a great partner! Dana

Alright farmgirls, here it is! My sweet, beautiful needlebook, thimble bag, and notepad from Dana! YAY! Oh word of warning: I'm on a soft focus filter kick right now, me and my photography gadgets, so yes the image is soft focus, and no it's not anyone's eye sight! :) Hugs! I shot this image of my little stitching table next to my comfy wingback chair, don't they fit in wonderfully!

Dana I'm so glad you love it! I adore english cottages, so I had so much fun making it!!! I am glad it arrived safe and sound! Oh and by the way, I am fully enjoying my needlebook and thimble bag (which is just precious), I started a new embroidery project yesterday, so it is already being put to good use! And how fun that we received our needlebooks on the same day! Hugs!

PeggyAnn and Lin thanks so much for your wonderful compliments on my photography! Now if I could just get the Photoshop proofing to actually match what shows up on the web, I'll be in good shape! :) Hugs!

Dear Anna, The needle case you made for me is wonderful! The outside is a lovely gray felt with a beautiful purple iris embroidered on it. On the inside is flannel with a small print with lavenders, greens, and pink as the pages for the needles. It is held together by purple ribbon, neatly sewn around the perimeter of the book..It is just lovely..Thank you so much for the sweet book. I shall think of you each time I use it.
You can never be to kind! |

Oh Beth that sounds wonderful! Gray always looks so pretty next to purple. And you know what your description reminds me of......a garden rainshower on the outside, and a beautiful blooming garden on the inside! Good work Anna, it sounds beautiful! Hugs!

I'm hoping to hear from my swap partner still, no package at my house yet. I sent mine out,I know it was delivered, because I did a delivery confirmation. Hope all is well...... I love all the pictures of the needle books that have been sent and recieved. I put a picture of the one I sent to my partner on my blog, if anyone wants to look.

Heather B what a cute "glamper"! I am in the market for a RV, so I hope to someday have a "glamper" of my own! I want to take it in a retro/vintage & cottage/farm direction! Farm girl it up! Hugs!
