Caroline thanks for creating the album. It is so nice to review all the great creations. Perhaps the next swap should have a unique theme !!

Caroline, The swap was great. I enjoyed seeing all the cases. I agree with Pam1111, a theme would be really unique and fun. Thanks for all your hard work Caroline

Here is a picture of the needlecase I sent to Sewsextremeseams. She said she likes it - I hope she does!

Hugs

Well, YES, I do love the needlecase you sent me. Your needlecase very much a cheered me from being sick for about a week. The flowers are so adorable and you know I love hot pink. You might not have known I also love lime green, so you really hit the mark. Thanks.

Caroline also sent me hand dyed 100% cotton thread made in Wales (a real treat), a hot pink FQ, and postcard depicting her city, Bury, St. Edmunds and a yummy Ripple chocolate bar. Thank you so much Caroline!

Also, Thank You Caroline for being the hostess. I know it adds a lot to your already busy, busy schedule.

Mine has arrived ... after much travel Not only did it come from the UK - but it went to Washington first, then back to Chicago. We had a bit of a mix-up ... but all is well and my needle case is PERFECT!!!!

Our wonderful hostess Caroline made my case and she made the most perfect case that suits me to a T. I had mentioned to her that it would be cool to get a case that represented where it came from (ie Peaches from Georgia, Maple Leafs from Toronto ... etc) so look what I got!!!

Needle case with British flag ... inside has RWB panels for pins and needles!!
3 F8's in beautiful greens and browns
Welsh Hand Dyed green floss
A marking pencil
And a candy bar ... which I'm sorry to say is in the freezer so couldn't be photographed. We have suffered a week long of over 100 degree (37c +) days and the candy bar felt more like a tube of toothpaste than a candy bar! It was completely squishy. Not to worry ... it will freeze and be enjoyed
A post card from her town, Bury St. Edmunds. I've actually BEEN to BSE ... Caroline lives about 10 miles or so from my Step Daughter!!

My husband was happy to see "his" flag come home especially so close to the 4th of July (or as he calls it - A big to-do about a cuppa)
