bag swap landed in the USA.........

Hi got an email from Pam - My Creative Mind to say she received my bag.........and she was
secretly wishing she had some stitching on it...........how lucky was I that
I used a stitchery on her bag..............so pleased you like the bag Pam
and thanks heaps Linda -All Stitched Up for organising a fab swap............. the stitchery is one of Capricorn Quilts designs........from her BOM stitcheries............I have really enjoyed stitching her designs..........


and yes after my post yesterday another mystery email from my bag swap partner.............she is being very cheeky...........can't wait to find out who she is but I do love surprises so I am glad I have not worked it out..............

Another award received.............Aim from Bumpy Doink gave me the "I love your blog" award...........she sent me an email saying I know you don't like them but I really wanted to give you the award........thanks Aim........so pleased you enjoy my blog.........the award is appreciated......

Take care til next time...............Chookyblue

PS off to garden............planning a new bed so will show some pics when it is done.......................hopefully today but if not it will be done by Friday morning when the visitors arrive.....another magnificient day in Oz...........

Love the bag you made your partner! I am just heading out to the garden too - unfortunately it isn't quite so warm here!

That is such a cute bag! Funny to think that while it is warming up there, it is cooling down here. My leaves are beginning to yellow and fall off of the trees.

Loved your bag swap bag. Did a spot of gardening myself today. The wind is the only annoying thing. Loving being on holidays - working on secret santa.
