I love the treasure box - 'rocked' it on it's own thread!

~Any chance of a tute?

Wow I love the scrapy patchwork motion free box!! Love those colors. The pottery bowl is so cute. The mug rug fish is great & colorful. All the extras too. Great Job!!!   "Jemimah"

I really like that fish mug rug the best, but the entire package is AWESOME!

Thank you for swapping with me...I love it all...you did a great job stalking...the little bowl surprised me because I collect green pottery...it will be use to hold my special finds for making my altered art!

I'm so glad you like your things!   How funny about the bowl - I'm partial to green pottery myself, and I sent it just because I thought you might like it. Clever me, eh?

It's terrible how pussy cats like to steal your jaffas though ... (mine do that sort of thing ALL the time). Random Trivia Moment: Those sweets (dark chocolate with an orange shell) are very traditional in New Zealand - although their main traditional use was to roll down the wooden floors of old movie theatres. Alas, these modern days of carpet have put an end to one of the familiar sounds of my childhood ... In commemoration, there is now an annual jaffa rolling competition in Dunedin though.

Thanks! I certainly hope to make more treasure boxes (I had many other ideas for designs while this one evolved), and fishy mug rugs too. So, time permitting, I would like to put together a tute/pattern or two along the way. It's very unlikely to be this side of Christmas though!

Oh, Jemimah what a great scrappy swapper you are! I think everything is great! The fish is adorable, the bowl, a journal, a card, the box. You are an all-round craftster!

I have a book about quilting differently and a box like that is in it! I love those!
I can understand that you don't have a lot of spare time nowadays, but I must ask: what did you use to make it so firm?
This is certainly on my growing list of things I want to make...
And for those who are interested, I will look for my book so I can share the title.

Great package! Lucky you, Alwaysinmyroom!

... what did you use to make it so firm?

Just a stiff, non-woven interfacing (sew-in, not iron on). Your book sounds interesting!

The story on the Jaffas bag was so interesting!  You guys were quite naughty children!

Alrighty! I got my lovely package from Totallyblank today and Craftster photo hosting is done. So here are the goodies:

The whole pack. 1 scrappy pouch, 1 card/coupon holder, bunch o' candies and 1 cute postcard from Michigan. She also sent me 2 packs of snap buttons and an envelope of fabric scraps, which I consider a kit for making other scrappy pouches. The fabric scraps were in an envelope but I decided to spread them out so you can see better.


My favorite! Too cute! And in my favorite color too! 


In action!

Thank you so much Totallyblank!

Great package from Totallyblank!  I love it all, especially the card holder with several slots--that's a great idea!  All the fabrics are beautiful.
