Getting to Know You Swap Package

HappyTeacher aka Jenn is my swappy partner and her package came today! She lives in Toronto. I really enjoyed reading the questionnaire/letter. This was a really cool swap. It is basically an "All about me" swap. So everyone makes a package about themselves and mails it off. She sent me her favorite book, cd/musician, candy, and coffee. There were a couple Kinder Eggs in the box but they exploded/ got crushed in transit. Derek and Deven got them since they were the ones home when the mail got here.

Here is the picture minus the Eggs.

The Neighbors Had Babies!

The beige goat with the center stripe had twins. In the 2nd picture she was off to go get the other one so it could have some milk too. The one with her kept trying but momma wouldn't let it with out the other one there.

Sewing Sewing

I was making a frog bag last night following a picture tutorial. I missed something HUGE because mine looks NOTHING like a "box bag". It's more like a large fancy pencil bag haha. Oh well. I haven't really been sewing for such a long time! I figure 6 years ago was when my Husqevarna quit on me. I'm not doing a bad job. I'm just rusty ;-) Luckily I have enough fabric to make another one. Here is what I ended up with!
