SPRING SECRET SWAP WITH PAT SLOAN'S YAHOO GROUP
HI FELLOW BLOGGERS!!
HAPPY FRIDAY! TODAY I FINISHED MY COASTERS TO BE SENT TO MY SPRING SECRET SWAPPER! I ALSO ADDED SOME "SPRINGY" THINGS TO SEND TO MY SECRET LADY! THIS SWAP IS BEING DONE BY PAT SLOAN YAHOO GROUP, AND ONCE WE GOT OUR "SECRET SWAP QUILT SISTER" WE WERE TO MAKE EITHER A T-TOWEL OR COASTERS. SO....I PICKED COASTERS! I HAND AND MACHINE APPLIQUED THESE LITTLE DARLINGS AS MY SWAPPER LOVES FLOWERS. THEN I FOUND IN CRATE & BARREL THESE T-TOWELS, AND WELL, I JUST HAD TO BUY THESE FOR HER. I ALSO FOUND THE BLUE BOX AT MICHAELS AND HAVE BEEN FILLING IT ALL WEEK WITH "SPRING THINGS"!!
OH SOOOO MUCH FUN! I DID ADD SOME CANDY, BUT COULD NOT TAKE A PICTURE OF THAT, AS THEN IT WOULD GIVE IT AWAY.
I WILL POST NEXT WEEK HER FIRST NAME AND WHY I PICKED THE COLOR "BLUE", HINT, HINT AND THE FLOWERS, ANOTHER BIG HINT, HINT.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
HUGS,
MARY
Hi Mary,

Great goodies!!! I like your projects on your sidebar!!! I have done a Saffron Hill in wild colors. I love your owl hanging!!! Is it a pattern?
ReplyDeleteThanks Becky and Lisa for your sweet comments! Lisa, I have been working on Saffron Hill for it seems, forever! I love it, though, too!
ReplyDeleteMy Owl Wallhanging is not a pattern, I sketched it from a greeting card I saw in the store. It was really fun, as it was my first attempt to do something like that. I already have 2 requests for making more! Am really excited! Hugs, Mary
My Spring Secret Swap Package went out UPS yesterday to the East Coast!!, hint, hint...NY!!
Hugs and Have a Great Weekend, Mary
Mary,
ReplyDeleteIs that your dog Oreo that I read about on Pat Sloan's Yahoo group? If so, keeping you and Oreo in my thoughts and prayers. My Rusty is so dear to me. I know Oreo is special to you.
