SSCS Sent

A few days ago,

 I showed you what I got from Annette in Chookyblue's SSCS.

This is what I sent to Lea.

From spying on her blog, I learnt she liked colours, 

so I made her this tablerunner in strong and soft yellows,

 with a grey fabric (Grey Grunge from Basic Grey, I love their grunge fabrics!) on the sides.

And she liked it!

Well, I must admit I like it too,

so I guess there's no surprise I've made one for my self as well...! :-)

We've finally got a little taste of winter, 

and I like it!

I've missed the snow and cold days!

We'll see how long it lasts, 

both the winterweather and my liking!  ;-)

Take care!

May Kristin

SSCS received

 Happy New Year!

(And a very belated Merry Christmas! :-)  )

I finally have some time to sit down and write a post or two!

This christmas has been a lovely, but very busy one,

filled with lots of family and friends!

I haven't joined many swaps over the last years, but I couldn't resist

Chookyblue's SSCS since I've joined this swap

since it was started back in 2007.

My lovley partner was Annette from Jindi's Cottage, Australia.

She made me a cute Santa which fits just perfect

on my kitchen tree...

 

 ...for the main present she made me this lovely bag, 

with two outside pockets,

and two inside plasticpockets , one of them perfect for my cellphone.

The stitchery is a Rosalie Quinlan design, and the bag is a pattern from

Natalie Bird's book Red Home.

Very clever!

Thank you, Annette, for the lovely things you made for me!

And thank you, 

Chookyblue,

for running this swap once again!

Take care!
