I was starting to worry a little bit but my parcel has finally arrived safe and sound with Lyn in Australia and she's very happy with them :D I made an matching embroidery folder, needle case and pincushion for Lyn and I also sent her a blue bird as the name of her blog is Bluebird Quilts. I popped in a couple of thimbles that I bought for her when we were on holiday in Scotland and also a stitching pattern that says...this is the home of a needleworker! Here's a picture.
The embroidery folder and pincushion were from a pattern that I had by Cheryl Goss of Willowberry Designs and the Needle folder was one of the free Stitcher's Angel designs by Natalie Lymer of Cinderberry Stitches. The blue bird was made using a Melly and Me Messenger Bird pattern. I thoroughly enjoyed making all of them and taking part in this swap has been a lovely experience. My thanks to Helen of Hugs 'n' Kisses who did all of the organising for the swap.
Love the gifts you sent to Lyn
The person I had to send to in The Stitchers Angel swap was Cheryl Goss What a lovely lady to match her designs
