My ornament is in the mail today! Finally!
The little goodies I made were a pain in the butt. Found a place that sold them, but also sold the pattern. Figured they couldn't be THAT hard to make, just a few pieces and voila, it's done, right? WRONG! What a struggle, but tossing the first 3 batches in the corner, getting a cup of coffee, then back to work on them, I FINALLY got 2 made. WOOHOO!! I'll NEVER make them again! These are a one of a kind from me even tho they can be bought/made by someone else.

haha Tlrnhi, I know exactly how you feel! This was a challenge for me too. I'm all good to go if I have a pattern or at least a plan. think of one on my own - not my strong suit. lol. it was an adventure while others seemed to sail thru like pros. oooh starting to rain hard and blow around out there. guess I best get off the puter and go snuggle up on the couch. nite all.

Both my swap partners should be receiving their ornaments today, or so the PO says so! LOL
Hope you both like them! Ya'll have a great day! Got to clean my house, my life group (like SS class) meets at my house on Thurs. nights. So at least it makes me clean up my mess!
