The Mill Rosie Swap

It wouldn't be a Mill Rosie event without a swap.  Saturday's swap had red as its theme.  I was lucky enough to receive this beautiful project holder from Cheryl
Isn't it beautiful.  Inside was a lovely pattern and two beautiful red threads. Thank you so much Cheryl.
This is what I made for the swap.  It's number was pulled from the swap bag by Sue
and here are all the red goodies gathered together.
Now to get red, red, ready for the next swap.


What do you do if your owner gives you a bath?  Well if you are little Essie you find the dustiest spot in the garden and have a good roll around
then leave with a smile on your face, happy you are all dirty again.



I am an enormous fan of Amy at Nana Company.  

These little fabric stamps are so cute.  Amy shares how to make them HERE.  Enormous thanks to clever creative Amy who so generously shares so much with us.
Happy Stitching
Love

  18. Glad you loved your swap gift Mel - they were all so gorgeous. You couldn't possibly growl at that sweet face - mine do the same after a bath

  19. What a fun gathering and great swap projects. Love what you made and received. And your little fur ball. Too funny. We take the Bug to the groomer or she would do just that same thing. When I have had to give her a bath between cuts she rolls all over the carpet and would love to get out and roll in the dirt.
