Firstly, I made these gifts for Anna (no blog), who despite being assigned to me in the international swap actually lives only a few streets away and as a result of the swap we have renewed our friendship (we had met once briefly before for a coffee but then life sort of got in the way). How lovely is that?
The first gift was a stitched cushion finished with a lovely flannel Christmas fabric.
Gift 2 was one of these sweet Christmassy bunnies. (the one on the right).
... and Gift 3 was The Snowflake Tree, I was so pleased I found that I had the perfect frame in my stash - how lucky was that?
... and here they are, all wrapped and ready to go.
My second Giftee was Asta from Yarns from my Sewing Basket.
The first gift was a tin with an embroidered Noel wreath on the top.
Gift 2 was another Joy cushion but finished with a different Christmas fabric.
... and lastly, Asta also received a Christmas Bunny (the one on the left)
So, another successful Xmas in July swap is over.
Thanks again to Cheryll and Kim for organising the two swaps.
hugs,
