I finally got my mug rugs and goodies finished for the Goodie Swap 2011,
This is the mug rug and needle keeper for partner no.2.
She had asked for something in red, white and blue.. plenty in my stash in those colours.
This is partner no.1's needle keeper, a request of aqua, pink and green...not so much green in this but I hope she likes it!
Cute balloons seems to inspire me! I'll have to make some more of those -
daughter no.1 was coveting them!
Fingers crossed now that my partners like them!
I have already received one of my goodie packages from Contented Caroline:
I had admired this mug rug when Caroline had posted
the photo on flickr, not realising it was for me!
Also included in the parcel was a covered diary,
a book mark and the most fantastic handmade card!
I can't wait to see what no.2 partner has made for me!

    Your swap partners will be doing cartwheels! Fabulous treats, and such nice color/print combos! I am particularly partial to those adorable balloons!

    Hi. I am visiting from Quiltstory. Your balloon mug rug is adorable! My brother John was living in Ireland for the past 5 years in Virginia, county Cavan. He just moved back to the states last night! I will be checking out your blog! Blessings,
