Hi i took part in the Sp swap quite a few times and hope to get back into it sometime soon, I used to send postcards, recipies, local resuable bags (my library sells them for £1.50) anything cadbury, tea bags, shortbread. Pin cushions are very quick and easy to make. Have you been to the Seattle quilt co (think that is the name) in Aberdeen they were at the Harrogate quilt show and had some good bargains. Poundland is good for notepads and pens. Howabout a 2013 scottish calendar. Can also let you have some websites of good mail order companies that have some 99p fat quarters and other small items so you can build a bit of a stash if you send me a pm. I always used to spend between £6.50 and £7 for the $10. Also would send used magazines prima etc they went down well. Recipies from supermarkets etc. Hope that helps
