Initial Heart Swap

Hi everyone,

I have been admiring the beautiful gifts received  so far for the swap.



I received my gift this week from the lovely Maria .  The parcel  smelled fantastic LOL.



Maria sent a red knitted heart, a pretty pink  soap that smells beautiful, and a cute little wax tart with a heart.  Everything was wrapped in pretty paper and tied  with ribbon with little hearts on it.  Thank you so much, Maria, for the lovely gifts.

I posted my swap parcel on  Monday.  The post bag had a tracking # which I checked this morning for the first time.  I entered the # on the tracking page, and there it is.....the date I mailed it, the name of the post office  and the time of day I gave it to them. That's it.  No record of the journey it should be on...   I am trusting it should be nearly to the destination by now, but who can tell by that tracking page? *sigh*




I joined in FNWF too, and I did a little secret sewing.  I just love dots, they always seem happy!
Thanks for stopping by.....debbie

    1. Dear Maria, I was going to save the soap because it is so nice, but I decided to use it and enjoy it instead. It is so luxurious and makes a bazillion bubbles! thanks again xx debbie

    1. Kath, I do love the dots, but not a whole quilt of them for some reason. They do make pretty nice bag lining though! debbie
