It looks like I'm the first one to receive their pincushion swap. And was a wonderful swap it is. I had never seen a wool knitted pincushion and this one came with a seam ripper and a pair of scissors. So clever. And what beautiful Christmas fat quarters. This was such a lovely swap and thank you so much. Loved everything. This swap is from Angela (Aurora).

I received my pincushion package yesterday from IreneC. While I am unable to post a photo. I can tell you it contained one of those beautifully folded ball ornaments; and, an incredibly beautiful jar pincushion containing a tape measure and colorful pins. The jar is topped with an awesome floral pincushion with folded petals. I am always amazed by the variety of pincushions available to us quilters. Thanks Irene C for being my swap partner.

Hello everyone,
I just got to open my package from Pat (nhnative) which arrived yesterday. I just got home from being out of town for a days and arrived to a great surprise.

The pin cushion is a beautiful, squared black felt shape with a lovely red cardinal, sitting on a berry branch with leaves. It's all hand embroidered, Pat your hand work is so detailed and just beautiful. I will treasure it. I also received a cute quilted Santa ornament, so cute. Also a very cute felt ornament with embroidered face and a cute scarf with a little jingle bell. And last but not least a pretty little mat made of Christmas yoyos, so fun. Almost forgot, a chocolate bar and a pack of coco......this will make a lovely snack tonight

I have to find my camera and charge up the batteries, it's been a long time since I've used it.....I will post photos tomorrow.

Thank you Pat, I love it all. You are so generous to share you talents with me, especially your lovely handwork. Everything is wonderful!

I'm glad you got it ok then. My house no is 24 so I probably wasn't thinking! I've been making Christmas puddings all day today so havent been down to collect my mail, so mine could be there and tomorrows a mail day as well. When do we have to have the next pin cushion ready? My SS sent me a book of patterns for them.

I think that maybe Aurora was having trouble posting the pic of the swap that I sent her so here it is.
