Well, I participated in my first “real life” sized swap and boy, was I every happy I did! My swap partner was Lesley from Country Girl Corner in the UK. The Shabby Chic Cottage hosted the swap.
I sent Lesley a (what I hope) was a nice package of assorted items (pppssstt Lesley, got a surprise headed your way too – found something & thought of you) & today, I received my package from her.
Okay, I had to pick myself up OFF the floor because I fell out of my chair. Why? you ask. Well, because look at the goodies she sent:
Cat Sachet (Smells GREAT!) And you know I LOVE kitties!A Vintage Tablecloth (YUMMY) – Look at the gorgeous embroidered flowers! And the cutes frames….got ideas for those already.
Country Living Magazine from the UK (WOO HOO)
AND THE CREME DE LA CREME! A LaMODE Petit Journal dated 1902! (I want to make that dress for a doll!)
Still with a piece of an original pattern in it! And look at those needlepoint charts!
The dresses Ah, should I say, Toilette???
Lesley – THANK YOU!!!!!!! You were spot on when you put this together for me. Girlfriend, did you read my mind????? :)
I hope dear that you were as happy with your gift from me as I was with yours. And if you happen to read this, just ignore that you are getting a surprise in a few weeks LOL.
Until Later…………………….
