At last I can show these photos, I'm a member of an online group "Friends in Stitching" and we had a paper bag swap ...... we had to send our partner a paper bag with 2 fat 1/4's a stitchery, button and trim or ribbon plus a choccie, then our partner would decide what to make using these goodies then send it back.... great fun. I had to make for Teresa and she gave me quite a challenge in her choice of fabric but I forgot to take a photo of the goodies and of course I ate the choccie so you will just have to use your imagination. Here she is opening her pressies, we all open online but I was able to give Teresa her gift in person.
I was just overwhelmed when I opened my parcel from Sarah... who was making for me, this cushion will be treasured forever and as you can see in these photos it has pride of place on my bed. This would have to be the most thoughtful and precious gift I have ever recieved and I can't thank you enough Sarah.

Beautiful presents Helen. And how good does the cushion look with your VV quilt? Extra special gift.
Your gifts made for Teresa are lovely she was thrilled with them...Sarah really does make the most special gifts...it was a good swap...
This was such a great swap Helen. You know how much I love what you made for me (you are soooo clever) and I really love what Sarah made for you. So thoughtful and special. Hope we have this kind of swap again, it was great. xx
It was a great swap and fantastic friends we have in stitching. Your gift giving and receiving look great. Enjoy
