Despite my sewing challenges, I managed to keep clicking "join" to various new bees, and swaps. One such swap was run by Cheryl over at
Gone Stitchin'. The
Colour Swap required each person to send 4 things in the color of our secret partner's choosing: something smelly, something for a room in the house, something edible and something personal. One item had to be handmade. This sounded like fun, so I joined in and my partner chose ... aqua. What a challenge!! Here's what I came up with:
 |
| little aqua TV shaped beaded coin purse (personal) |
 |
| Partylite Votives (smelly) & espresso (or shot) glasses :) |
 |
| Placemat with heat resistant batting (handmade) |
 |
| aqua fabrics (for the sewing room) & chocolate |
 |
| I think I see some aqua in this candy necklace (edible!) |
 |
| My new discovery - note taking napkins - GENIUS! |
As for me, once I entered, I promptly forgot the color I'd chosen so I had an extra nice surprise!
 |
| my beautifully wrapped items |
 |
| I chose GREY! Soap, candy, sachet, heart and |
 |
| Beautiful organizer with pockets and... |
 |
| AMAZING embroidery!! |
 |
| such sweet details |
I would definitely join this swap again - such fun!
Hugs!
Also, if you're interested in some
Pay it Forward goodies from me, I still have a spot open! Just leave me a note!

Your aquas look wonderful. I also like all of the grey goodies.
