I did make something homemade for the first time for a sp. Thanks for all the ideas ladies.
    melinda if it doesn't make it in time, you can always mail it separately. i am sure your pal would not mind getting two squishies. don't sweat it.

    SOOOOooooo check this, ladies and gents I won the Swap lottery!! Yep, check this.. everything I asked for and homemade banana bread!! Thank you so much TheMamaHauser aka Kelly! Oh you cannot see it, but the sewing machine pad has the cutest little charm that says "Made for you" I tried desperately to get my camera to focus in on it and it just plain refused to do so. OK onto the drooling! hehehehe

Have never really seen any with the crystals all around the back of the ankle before. And the stretch even provides comfort due to the "give". And no high heels means safety on stairs. They have it all.. Brand = Madden Girl. Color me happy.


    What cute shoes Sharon

    boy did you ever win the swap lottery. I didn't think about sending some home made breads or anything like that. Such a great idea. Great pictures and great squishy you got.

    my lqs had their clearance fabrics on further mark down to $2.87/yd for July 4th. I stayed out of the store lest i have been tempted to buy fabric i had no room to store. so i popped in today just to see what i missed.... arrrggh i am so glad i stayed away lest i would have been tempted.

    with having 2+ weeks of above 100+ degree temps it is not cool anywhere. the lqs wasn't cool and the grocery store was a bit warm also. i have lost my appetite with all this heat so i bought some fruits to eat and a bag of carrots for the rabbits. my local grocery store chain sells fruits & vegetables from local farms from time to time so they had peaches from eckert's farm today complete with worm holes and squirrel nibbles. you can't go more authentic than that.
