My SSCS Gift To Tracee

Yesterday I blogged about my gift I received from Cathy at Highland Quilter on this post.  So today I am going to show you what I sent Tracee from Quilt Kitty Loves Life!. I made this little felt Christmas decoration for her and gave it to her along with other goodies she got to open before the big opening day.

Then on the day Tracee got to open her handmade gift which was a table runner which I free motioned quilted.  Slowly getting FMQ right but still a long long way to go. Tracee has also blogged about it here if you want to go and look.

Again, thank you Chookyblue for organizing this swap

Lovely Gift Received For Chookyblues SSCS 2012

Well I finally took down the Christmas tree today.  Just need to vacuum up those pesky pine needles now.  All decorations are put away for another year, but before I done that I remembered I had not taken photos of my lovely handmade gifts and decoration from Cathy over at Highland Quilter, so quickly these were done.

I was so lucky.  First up I had opened my decoration a few weeks back and that quickly went on my Christmas tree.  What was special about this Koala I got, is that a few years back my husband bought me a larger Koala from Australia made out of the same material, though I do not know what it is called. It is gorgeous.

Then on Christmas day we were allowed to open our next gift and I got not only this lovely table runner, but also a gorgeous Christmas stitchery.

Thank you very much I love them. Also thanks to Chookyblue for hosting this swap. I will definitely be signing up next year.

Just A Few Things

Well first up I better show you my sack I received from Lisa at Lydia's Treasures for the Santa Sack Swap. Though I received it a couple of months ago I kept on forgetting to blog a piccie of it.  So here it is

  

and look  I got two months of gifts this month too.

Also over at the Craftlovers forum I participated in a Candlemat Swap and here is what Kimba sent me.

You can read about what I sent here on a previous post.

Love the Xmas theme.

 I also in the last couple of weeks received my OASS gift.  I feel so lucky.  I got some lovely material, a mug rug, clip purse and a stuffed heart in lovely flowery material.  My partner was Donna from Donna's Lavender Nest so go on over and have a look at her blog.

I also have sent and received some more hexagons this month in the Craftlovers Forum swap.

This time round I had to send to Lynette and she asked for any colour with a white centre. So I sent her this purple one.

I was lucky enough to get Sandy again this month and she sent me this lovely red one.

And Monika being on to it has made all her hexis and sent this one on to me already.

Then over at QBSA Leena Sent me this lovely Pinwheel block. Love the Civil War fabric.

Finally my parcel has arrived from the Fat Quarter Shop. I wonder who is going to get something made out of it for Chooky Blue's Secret Santa Swap 2012?
