The Dresden Plate swap

This is what I sent to my swap partner, lovely Cheryll, in the Dresden Plate swap.  A linen and cotton fabric bag lined with lovely wool suiting.
I added a few useful little things to put into the bag.  OK, I don't know that chocolate ladybirds are useful but they are yummy.
I love being part of these swaps.  Putting together a parcel is so much fun.  And I must say I was really happy with the lovely birdcage tag I found in the Bed Bath and Table Easter sale.



Today I found this delightful table topper.
I found it HERE at the fabulous Moda Bakeshop.  It was designed by Susan Allen.  Huge thanks to all involved.
Have a wonderful day
Love
