Little Stitches swap.............

The Little Stitches (sorry private blog) had another swap and this time it was an ornament swap.........I decided to make it direct so Fairy Girl sent to Little Miss Thimble...........
LMT made 2....look at the gorgeous ornaments she made for Fairy Girl.........love them..........and she also made a necklace too.........Fairy Girl wore it Christmas day..............and the ornaments have been hanging on the tree.........
This is the ornament Fairy Girl designed and made for Little Miss Thimble.....
.......she made it during the floods......early December........had a ball stitching away.......she stitched bells and beads onto the felt...........(sorry not the best pic)
Also in the swap Jessie Girls brother Mr Z  was a little keen to make something too so I asked Bookworm and he said yes so the boys had a direct swap too..............
This is what Mr Z made for Bookworm
This is what Bookworm made for Mr Z..........
"C" is for Christmas 
the back 
I think they both did very well with their projects............
%%%%
Fairy Girl got a quilt kit to play with for Christmas...........she has been pestering to make something else and this one looked good and she loves these fabrics..........
Catch you later..............

The kids have all done an amazing job on their ornaments! They (and their mums!) should all be really proud! Have a great New Years! Don't party too hard! ;)

Hi There Chooky...just popped in to wish you a Happy New Year; cause I won't see you at Nundle in 2011. We will be out Dubbo way by then on a big trip, to see as much of Australia as we can during 2011.
Love all your Christmas items...I know the weather hasn't been kind out your way; but your shower of gifts are just the best!
Hugs..Judith
