I'm in I make a pretty mean crocheted brooch. I live in Japan now though would that hurt my chances of being in the swap??

that is such a cute bonnet!! Did you make the pattern or did you get it from somewhere. I would love to make a couple of friends this is seems there are babies popping up everywhere. Very nice work!!!

I know that this is a crazy and kinda silly question but I thought I would ask anyways on the off chance, but is there any crafters near by even remotely close?? I am living in Yamaguchi city and arrived here about a month ago and am staying for a year. I am here teaching English to kids which is great. I am just in the process of buying a sewing machine and I can't wait cause there is a ridiculous amount of cool fabric over here!! Well give me a shout if any one is interested in a get together!!

Thanks soo much for the lovely ideas ladies and Grieney I would love to run to Target if only we had one in Canada but unforunately we aren't so lucky to have a target to call our own. But thanks again I am definately gonna use some of the bird call lingo for the quilt that is the best idea ever!!

THanks guys I wasn't sure if Illanna24 would like the fabric but turned out it was a perfect match. Also the measuring tape bow is actually a brooch. I love measuring tapes!!!

I absolutely LOVE this swap my partner just received and she's very happy yaaahhh!! I took some pics before hand and was soo nervous cause she made me such amazing things, but the package was well received so it's all good now. Thanks Catpants and Devilninny for organising everything and a huge thanks to Illanna24 you were the best swapping partner a girl could have.

Here are some pics of the package I sent to her:

Thanks Original Youth I just got it cut so I am still adjusting to it but I think I like it. Now I can't wait for Illanna24 to receive her package I hope she likes everything!!
