PLEASE NOTE I do not give out anyone's e-mail address without their permission....Remember there are some Inrternational participants and it takes time for the parcels to arrive its destination!

I like the applique Christmas quilt you are showing on this post. Looks like it was a lot of work.

ReplyDeleteFirst, I love your table runner! It is so pretty and the fabrics you used are wonderful. I too have sent out my package and it is on its way to Canada and I hope it makes it in time.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Wendy - I love the table runner - and how cute is your first applique? And, I love your new tree skirt, too!
ReplyDeleteI love all your projects! I'm still waiting for my SS to come to my home too :)
ReplyDeleteI'm just hoping it was mailed from the US or something to keep it longer. I haven't heard from my partner either... I hope it gets to the US soon :)
What a beautiful tree skirt, Joan. LOVELY. You must have been very proud to stick it under the tree this year.
ReplyDeleteJust thought I should let you know that I never received anything from this swap. Sorry but I could not find your email address to email you. I did however send out to my swap partner and they already received what I sent.
