Sewing Kit Swap Is Done!

now that i know our swap partners, N from Balkan Style Bloggers and her daughter B received out package, i can show you some pics of what we sent to them.
as you can see, there were some fabric scraps, ric-rac and trim, a needle book, a tissue cozy, a felt bird softie kit, three sewing cards, yo-yo's, a hand carved stamp and stamp pad, a pincushion and heart shaped pins, an embroidery hoop, some buttons, some ribbon and a smaller pincushion. and we packed it in a cute green small luggage case.

here are some close-ups of both pincushions. the smaller one is below.

and i'm glad to hear that N and B are happy with the sewing kit we sent to them! i can't wait to see any projects they may work on with what we sent to them.
and here is the swap package they sent to us! as you can see, C was very excited to see what was inside.
luckily she was patient enough to let me take pictures before she took off with anything! N and B sent so many nice things! among our favorites are the buttons and fabric. they also included a pattern for making a ruby doll and i think we'll definitely use some of the fabric for that. C also liked all the embroidery floss in her favorite colors of pink and aqua. and i can't wait to teach C how to use the hand made knitting nancy! i think that is a wonderful way to get C started with knitting!

and here is my happy girl! thank you so much N and B! and thank you to Melissa of Day to Day for hosting this awesome swap!
