MandyLikesPie - You did a wonderful job.  It is just sad that they were stolen and missjesswinkwink is not getting anything.  That is so sad and so terribly wrong.

h_pets360 - All your stuff is wonderful you received a wonderful package.

Sewsew-a-Gogo - love the alter ego.  Super Housewife able to clean dishes in a single rinse.

Yay! I got my first package from sulkycat Smiley DD was very taken with the contents as you can see. It was wrapped up in adorable 50s print tissue but she has already ripped it up!!
Firstly an adorable mouse in Cath Kidston print which is being modelled by DD

A little bag for her room - in very cute cotton prints - It works well in her little ensuite (very grand our daughter) and is already filled with Doctor Who figures and assorted items

A little washcloth (or is it a pot holder?)

A peg bag that matches our kitchen (and I really needed one so that was great!)

and a cushion cover that I think will either live in the kitchen or DD"s room in a pretty flower and check:


I love it all - thankyou sulkycat!

hurray it got there in a day!!

glad you like it - its a dishcloth, but i thought it might be soft enough for little hands & faces rather than dfishes (its knit from rather expensive cotton!)

as i said, its all rather tongue in cheek kitchen goddess things - & glad your daughter likes them! hope you are feeling better today

I rec'd from Beetastic on Friday, and boy and I a lucky girl!

I got some very cute dishcloths and a potholder...cherry prints are a true love of mine.


And an adorable- I mean really, really adorable- onesie for the pending little one.


Close up of the embroidery...


And a wonderful apron! It is reversible, so the other side is the red gingham with a cherry pocket!
AND it fits the baby belly- I had not realized how big it was until I saw this photo!


She also sent along a box of aplets and cotlets, which I never realized were from Washington until now. They are delish, and fit the 50's theme- gel was king!
Thanks so much for everything, I love it all!  All the other packages are terrific, too.

Currently taking a hiatus from swapping.  Sad

I've always wondered what disease cured ham had.
