Has everyone else received?  I'm still waiting on recipes from 2 people    I keep thinking they're out there somewhere, but they aren't appearing...

Oooh, those soaps look divine!  I wish my gift would hurry up and reach its recipient, I'm so impatient 

That is adorable!  The bag itself is great, but your fabric choice just takes it over the top!  Fantastic job 

Argh!  That's the only day in December (so far) that I can't meet up.   That's the day I have my annual cookie exchange, from 12 to 2.  Ah, well.  I hope y'all have fun and hopefully I'll be able to make the next meet-up.

Let's get this party started!  I'm in school all day, and usually doing home/housework in the evenings, so weekends would work best for me.  I might could swing an early evening during the week if that's what everyone else wants/needs.  I live in Reidsville, which is between Greensboro and Danville Va.  I never realized how many of us were so close in proximity.  Cool!

I received a couple of days ago, but I just now have the time to post pics.  Can I just say that I LOVE what I got?!  jillybeans sent me the cutest, most adorable tote bag!!



The lighting in my dining room is rubbish, so the pics aren't great, but the paint is so pretty and shiny.  This thing is so cute!!  And look at the little dangly she made for it!  Swoon....



the extras.  I've bought these little puzzle erasers for my niece, but I've never seen them in sewing paraphernalia!  And I heart buttons!!



AAANNNNNDDD....the SWEETEST, CUTEST, most ADORABLE little card

jillybeans, I love this package, thank you so so SO much!!

I sent yesterday.  I haven't taken the time to stalk, so I have no idea to whom my little pendant is heading.  I hope she likes it 

I think I've pm'd everyone who had one of my recipes on their wish list.  If I missed anyone, please let me know 

I've added a bunch of recipes to my wish list, as well.  I also see that some of mine have been added to other swappers' lists.  What do we do about them?  PM each one individually, or post them somewhere?

Okay, here is the map pendant that I'm in the process of making:


As a veteran FOC raffle swapper, I know that the item has to be finished and ready to go before the swap gets underway, but I think I forgot that in my essay/test taking fog.  I was mindlessly thinking I'd get to it this weekend, but obviously that won't work.  I've got it put together, I just need some sunshine for the resin-y stuff to set.  Tomorrow is supposed to be nice and sunny, so when I get home from school I'll get it outside.

I chose Italy, because I'd love to visit there, and because I love the name Bologna 

TSM, is it okay that I'm offering an (as yet) unfinished item?
