Hi Sue, I received my package on Friday and just love all of it. Please tell both of your daughters that they did a wonderful job on painting the mason jar. I love it. The yarn is one of my favorites, was just looking at those buttons the other day but did not get any for myself, so I was tickled to get some. Love the smell of the soap too. Thank you so much for everything you and your daughters sent to me. Hope you are have a great summer. Take care

Thank you SylviaE. I received it yesterday and loved all the blue things. I shall get a lot of use from the crochet hook and the dishrag. The rose is on the kitchen sink. My grandson took the eraser and the lego. Thank you and have a great summer. Love the handwash.
With lots of hugs and smiles, have a great day.

Hi All,
Clearly, I don't know what I am doing when it comes to posting pictures. Sorry. My husband is so much better at this, but he is not home.
Anyway, as you can see from the above photos, LadyBek outdid herself on this blue swap. In true farmgirl fashion she made everything she sent me except for the air freshener. I LOVE the purse and think it is the most amazing blue color. The little dress is a potholder and the large dress is actually a dishtowel that ties over the oven door. I put them both in my kitchen immediately and am using them and loving them. The flowers on the pen mean I have half a chance of not losing it. The basket has such a pretty blue lining and I am not sure what I am going to put in the basket yet. This doll is just so special. Her dress has 2 layers of hand crochet. My grandgirl will want this but she can't have it. I think it is very special.
Thank you Becky for ALL of your efforts. The box she sent it all in was even decorated. This arrived last week but I have been sick and just wanted to enjoy it so please forgive the late post. You did SUCH a wonderful job. Big hugs, Joey

This has been a great swap. Everyone has sent such wonderful blue things. Even though I thought this was so easy, there were 2 gals who almost got replaced because they did not respond to their partner by the deadline and new partners had been chosen, leaving last minute scrambling to get everyone covered. Also, not everyone has received their package from their partner yet. Unfortunately, anyone who does not follow through with this swap will not be able to participate in the next color swap. I am sorry, but we have all agreed that follow-thru is VERY important. Sometimes things come up, it happens to all of us, but it is important to let your partner or me know. I send a sincere "thank you" to all of you who did follow thru. I again apologize for the lateness of my posting but I had let my partner know. Thank you also to everyone who posted pics so we could all see. What fun!
I'm going to give this a few more days and will then post the next color. I hope you will all want to come back and play again. Hugs, Joey

I am glad you liked it. I figured the pin would not poke anything by being in the towel. I am glad you found it.
take care.

I wanted to share the picture of every sent to me by Mel,
She really went all out and included a note with the
story behind each piece. I so appreciate that. The book,
Drink to Yesterday belonged to her husband's grandparents!
I love the jewelry. I was looking into making a new skirt
for a trip next month and this necklace and earrings set will
go perfect with the picture in my head. Thank You Mel.

OK friends, Sorry it took me so long to finally be able to write what I got from the lovely Darlene! Inside my blue package was a mini train embosser that I will use for my cards and teaching stuff. A blue washcloth that I had to go find for the picture because it was already in the bathroom, haha. Some blue paper and envelopes which I will use to make my cards and things with my Cricut. Blue yarn which I will probably use when I learn to knit, a blue fabric quarter which you can never have to many of those. And a blue pen. Overall it was a great package and Darlene I am happy you were my first swapping partner! Thank you for everything! :)
*Edit: It's not letting me upload the picture... I'll have to try again later! |

Everyone's gifts have been wonderful and so in the spirit of the swap. I know we have really enjoyed seeing the pictures. We are 2 weeks past the last mail-out day posted. If you have not received a package from your partner, please let me know NOW. I know that there are 3 people who did not receive a package but I want to be sure there aren't any more. THANKS to all of you who did follow thru. You are the BEST!
I'll post the new color soon. Hugs, Joey

Good I'm glad you got it! I was worried that it may have gotten lost. I would post picture for you but I didn't take one :( I had fun searching for blue things. Can't wait to see what the new color will be. I hope you are having a good summer.
Hugs Sandy

I just received my package from vintage saver and it was packed full of goodies. It had stickers, fat quarters, lots of beauty products, gum which I like, a pad to list all those things I need to buy, especially at the craft store LOL, a beautiful blue candle and earrings. Thank you Oleta for the wonderful swap.
