23rdSpiral welcome back and glad you have enjoyed the swap i think we all did.

I am off to Gran Canaria on staurday so will be AWOL for a few weeks (unless i log on in a cyber cafe:D). i am going to try and set up some scheduled posts on my blog if i can work it out. Hope you all have fun sewing while i'm gone

hey Tina, have fun in Gran Canaria... whereabouts you headed? we went in March and LOVED it... even though we were a bit sceptical of going AI to a resort it was just lovely!

~ i had cause to sit in the baking sun keeping an eye on my car for an hour today... and made quite a few more hexies... including some very mini ones... of which i've even broken the fear and sewed a few together! woop!:T

Hi ladies, sorry I have not been round much I have just had the worst couple of weeks. I have been sewing though, but mainly for gifts so I cant show until they are sent off and received.
23rd spiral thanks for the email, Im glad you liked your swap parcel, I added the mag is that is where I made your needle case from. I am looking forwrd to getting mine too.
Tina thanks for organising the swap I have really enjoyed pulling stuff together for it. Have a fabulous holiday, if hubbie complains that the cases are too heavy tell him you could leave his stuff behind to lighten the load

It will peel off & I have managed to repair 1 pair but trying to do the others it isn't working so perhaps the stuff is too old.

I have been busy making some more lavender hearts as teachers' gifts but the more exciting news is that I'm putting ideas together for a Christmas gift! It's a piece of embroidery so it will take me a while to do, quite exciting! So after talking about that I put in a haberdashery order of all lovely Christmassy things like red ric rac and pom pom fringing to embellish Christmas stockings. Now I am on the hunt for a selection of different patterned red fabrics (cottons, needlecord, etc). I'm planning on stockings like Kirstie Allsop did on her Christmas crafts tv programme. :santa2: :rotfl:

Kandi, sorry to hear you have had a rubbish couple of weeks. Hope things improve soon.
