glad you liked everything. i made you two sets of each felt food because i remember you said there was two kids, we do not want them to fight over it.  the halloween cookies and pumpkins go with the fish and chips because i did them last year around halloween for the play food dinner swap. yes the tea is local in the usa but only in the south of the usa. the ted's mints are from a very popular restaurant that serves bison or buffalo. the key loft mints i received from a little visitor swap and thought you would like them.

I received from Luckdragon yesterday morning and what a great package it is!  I think I may have squealed a little when I opened it because the dogs ran away and DH gave me a funny look.  But it was such a fantastic surprise to open the box up and see the Weekender bag that was on my WIST.  Here it is in it all it's beauteous glory - with tonnes of pockets!  Great timing as we are going for our fall vacation in a week and a half.  I love the graphic material and the blue trim - LOVE it!



Here is the inside:


Then if that wasn't enough, I read the note that came with it and found out there was more stuff tucked inside!!!!

Such a pretty pretty hair comb - I love the poppies!!!!


A great felt bird pouch with more goodies inside




The goodies inside the pouch - some great clippie stitchmarkers with knitting charms, skeleton cameo earrings right off my WIST, and the bird and twig necklace off my WIST too - too too adorable!  I thought for a second of giving that to my friend who collects birds - but only for a second....  MINE!!! MINE!!! ALL MINE!!!!!



Thank you Luckdragon - I love everything!

hahaha! You're brave!  They smell horrible, even sealed and wrapped in plastic.

Those fibers are just delicious!

You are so right. I'm having some major envy of the birdie necklace. And the weekender bag. And the bird pouch...

Okay, I am going to post pictures first and then go back and read and gawk and comment!

I swapped medium flat rate boxes with edie22 and jennilocker. I received two super awesome packages. I feel super spoiled by each one... first up, my package from edie22...

First, I asked for a market bag. I got two! I'm glad I got two - they were both full from the farmer's market on Sunday.


Totally cute ear warmer. I expect I'll be needing this soon.


Wash cloths and face cloths. My mom snagged some of the face cloths!


PLUS two cute zipper pouches ( looooooove the mushroom fabric! ), a bunch of foam paint brushes, four spools of ribbon, a tube of E6000, a package of really cool pens that have different flavored smells, and a package of blank cards!


But, that's not all! She sent 4 embroidery hoops, a crap load of embroidery needles, a needle organizer, and a WHOLE BOX of variegated thread! Super awesome!


There was also a really cute stamp, but I guess I didn't get a picture of that.

Now, from jennilocker I got another crazy awesome package. Well, two packages. She sent one, but she said that I had to wait until I got another box as she was having something from etsy sent to me. Well, I had a really bad week last week and the swap package was sitting there on a high shelf. I wondered, what would if hurt if I opened part of it early? Nothing, right? I found a bunch of tupperware and a couple yards of really pretty fabric. I was really confused. Then she PM'd me wondering if the basket had arrived. Basket? She's sending me the supplies to make the picnic basket on my wist! Sweet! Oh, no, that's not what she sent. She tried to make it herself, but it kept breaking so she BOUGHT ME THE ONE ON MY WIST and sent extra fabric to make accessories, plus all the reusable food storage a girl could want!





I'm sorry for the dark hazy pics. The weather was gloomy last week. Tomorrow should be nice and we have no plans. I think we'll pack a picnic and some books and go to the park! I'll try to get some better pics then...

edie and jenn, thank you so much for swapping with me. I love EVERYTHING!!!
