Look what the postman brought yesterday all the way from Australia! Jess of Scrappy n'Happy and I decided a couple of week ago to have our very own little swap. And this is what she made for me.
This very cute pin cushion. Look at the lovely buttons on each side.....
.....and a handy thread wallet, including the lovely embroidery floss.
Jess was also one of the first people who left a comment on my blog when I first started blogging a few month ago and I was tickled pink that someone would actually read my babble ;). So thank you Jess for the lovely gifts as well as your encouragement!
Of course I am nowhere near finished with my gift for her. But I'm working on it and have decided to make a tutorial at the same time. Since it's supposed to be a surprise , I won't reveille what I'm making, but check back here in a couple of weeks.
And this Hexie Caddy I made myself with the help of an excellent tutorial by Penny of Penny's Hands. It's completely sewn by hand. I'm now planning to make another, a bit smaller one, to take along when I go to my quilting group. Take a peek at Penny's blog; it's a treasure trove of free tutorials.
That's it for now.
Cheers
Vreni

Lovely lovely stuff from your friend Jess. Good idea to have a mini swap. Maybe you should organise a bigger one via your blog. I'd be in it :) I love the hexie caddy. What a fabulous idea. I'll need t check out the link. All my pins / scissors / pencils etc are scattered all over the table under bigger things. Can never find anything!
So schön, was du da bekommen hast. So swaps scheinen wirklich toll zu sein! Und dein Hexiecaddy sieht ja echt toll aus. Danke für den link, werd mich dort gern mal umsehen.
Wünsch dir ein schönes Wochenende

So kleine Swaps sind immer sehr schön und ich finde das immer so "persönlich";))
Die Hexieanleitung werde ich mir anschliessend gleich mal anschauen, finde die Hexies sowieso genial!!
Wünsch Dir noch eine gute Zeit, viele Grüessli aus der langsam herbstlichen Schweiz, Rita
Hallo Vreni,

Gorgeous swap and the caddy looks interesting.
