I love swapping on Flickr. They are some fantastic groups full of fun, creative and very generous people.
Last week I received this gorgeous Pillow/cushion from Amanda in the Pillow Talk Swap. Isn't it just gorgeous! And she sent me about a ton of scraps that I can't wait to get playing with :) Thankyou so much Amanda!
Below is the pillow/cushion that I made for my partner, and it is now living at it's new home :)
Yesterday I received another exciting parcel in the mail. I started jumping up and down before I even opened it because I knew the name on the envelope.
The fantastic Michelle, swap Mama in the Pretty Little Pouch Swap, sent me this amazing package. The most fabulous pouch and a lovely stack of fabric :) I am in Love! Thankyou so much Michelle! I am also in love with a beautiful quilt and Pillow that Michelle has made, and have hatched a cunning plan to make one for myself ;)
Below is the pouch that I made for my partner, which is also in it's new home :)
Today, I'm working on things for another couple of swaps. The Savvy Seasons Swap is in full swing, and it's mailing day tomorrow in the Modern Christmas Table Runner Swap. These festive swaps are just so much fun!!!
I'm working on some houses, right now...
Happy Tuesday!

Fiona you lucky thing to receive all these goodies but then your own are marvellous too - so perhaps you deserve them! I have bought a frame for a purse but haven't made one ....yet!

And I'm with Laura - those houses - oh my heart!
Lots of lovely goodies! great pouches! Cute houses! So much yumminess :)
ReplyDeleteOooh lots of lovelies! But then you do make gorgeous stuff yourself so perhaps gorgeous stuff attracts other gorgeous stuff?
ReplyDeleteOooo. Lots of lovelies both made and received!! Well done you!!

ReplyDeleteWhat goes around comes around. All gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSo many lovelies! Those houses are adorable! Jxo
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely things Fiona, I'd say you've been really lucky in your swaps, but I think Hadleys put it much better - your swap parters have been even more lucky :-)
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely things to look at - I love everything you've made and received in your swaps and I also completely agree with Hadley and Sarah...it's karmic swapping - you make gorgeous things and you receive gorgeous things!
ReplyDeleteWhat Archie the Wonder Dog said. He's a dog wise beyond his years ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat you made is as beautiful as what you received and I would be hard pressed to choose a favourite out of those beautiful makes.
ReplyDeleteLove both your received and given goodies
ReplyDeleteI love it all, the pillow you received is awesome and the one you sent is wonderful. And the two pouches are beautiful! I am going to soon be ordering those closures and giving them a try. And I love the houses too.
ReplyDeleteHi Poppy, I love your blog! Those are such beautiful pouches - really great colors too.
