Santa Sack Swap

My partner in this swap was Michele from the Christmas Beetle.  After some problems having the parcel delivered (due to Cheryll being given the wrong address) it arrived safely. Huge thanks to Barbara from Toll for all she did to ensure it found Michele.

Here's what I included.
The stocking.  I felted a beautiful cashmere wool blend blanket earlier this year and used some of it to make this stocking.
A goodie bag.
In the bag I popped a Christmas cook book and some silicone cup cake cases
A sewing bag, thread catcher, pin cushion and some vintage buttons
One of my beautiful Michelle Palmer original sketches made up into a little picture on an easel
A tea cosy, panattone and some tea
A project holder
In the holder I popped a Ric Rac pattern and some more of my cashmere/wool felt
Two tea towels and a fun snowman ice cube maker.

I had a lot of fun putting this parcel together.  Can't wait to do it all again next year.  Many thanks to our wonderful Queen of the Swap Mamas -Cheryll of Gone Stitchin' - for everything she does and organises for us.


This is such a sweet stitchery.

It is very kindly shared at Sylvie-Busy-Bee, right HERE.  Many many thanks.
