Swap has landed
Phew, the Back To School swap parcel for Heidi at Friday Prize has landed! So finally I get to blab about the contents. It's the hardest part of swapping for me - keeping a lid on it so as not to spoil the surprise.
But as usual, I neglected to take a decent picture of the contents all together. I am always so excited to get my parcels sent off that I forget all about that part. Hopeless.
The thing I had most fun with was the artsy clutch from Bend the Rules Sewing. I did some sashiko style ripples and embroidered goldfish on the outside and found a ripple effect cotton for the lining. I was so so pleased with how it turned out that I think I need to make another one. Pure fun.
Have a great weekend - we're off to the Newbury Show. They have the JCB Dancing Diggers. How could we not?

I never heard of JCBs before--that's a new one. But since they're dancing, that's even better. Have a wonderful time.
Great swap stuff :)
Have fun at the show - we're going tomorrow and we are definitely going to see the diggers,our son would never forgive us if we didn't
And the other Oh! is that I just asked DH where Newbury is and he said its 2 hours away. Then laughed hysterically when I asked if we could go. Oh.
