Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

kim, your sic and it's understandable why no pics. don't worry about it

Holly Springs, NC(Zone 7b)

Alicia, no worries about not sending extra goodies. It is definitely not something that must be done, and is always unexpected when I get a package. Personally, I pick up little things here and there (usually on clearance) and keep them in a basket to choose from to include in boxes. I don't usually go out to buy extra goodies for each swap specifically.

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

yes Alicia, you don't have to sed extra, that is up to the sender

Cutlerville, MI

I LOVE my goodies Jordankitty. I was sent two really great coffee mugs..which I really needed, magnetic clips, Dish cloths and beautiful matching towels, and a great little spreader that matched! I am SPOILED rotten:)

Thank you!!!!!!!! SOOOO MUCH!!!!!

A LOVELY homemade stained glass butterfly to hang in my window. A beautiful towel bag with 4 pockets, a large flower, wooden handle, and thick cotton fabric (very very nice) also a Matching Apron made with the same fabric. A stack of very good sized black and white kitchen towels. A beautiful handwritten card.

OK, here's my box. My goodness, Sue, you outdid yourself. Beautiful! There are 10 (!!) dish towels, some matching dish cloths, matching potholder and hot pad, a yummy hazelnut scented candle, a little solar flower w/ fluttering bees pot decoration thingy that moves in the breeze, a mug, an absorbent ceramic coaster, and a great vintage green cast iron trivet. Perfect, Sue. Everything will fit right into my kitchen. Thank you so much!! Can you tell I'm enthused? Yes, I am!! :)

Kim so glad the box arrived...just sorry to hear you aren't well. You could have waited for the photo's, you need rest more than we need photo's

As this swap was 't-towels' I wanted to try making everything with t towers thus the apron which took 2 t-towels and the bag tote done with 2 t-towels

Made a few butterflies before I left home so thought you would enjoy


Am in New Orleans, everyone want to head out to Bourbon street, by the looks of us we all should be in bed..all the worse for wear..But they will find a burst of energy so off we go..

Air boat ride in the swamp tomorrow, am sure they'll all be dead tired..

Gab later, looking forward to the next swap

Looking to your next swap everyone..

Hi everyone...

I received a lovely box of goodies from Sue G...... we're practically neighbors Sue!! -:)

Inside were two lovely hand made towels with 'button up' hooks for the stove... and a matching pot holder/mitt. Also... a lovely green towel with watering cans on it... I really like the design of this one... very unique and the color is perfect for my kitchen. And a garden theme... what could be better?

Wait! I'm just getting started.... there was also a very sweet little cream pitcher with a flower - peony maybe? - pretty colors - check out the photos.... A wooden soap holder with 'Grandma's old fashioned lye soap', scripture tea in some yummy flavors... (going to have a hard time keeping that away from hubby who is fond of both tea and scripture!) LOL!! A package of 'soapwart' seeds... It always amazes me how DG members seem to know what seeds I am interesting in trying... amazing Sue! And last but not least... a 2 pack of red microfiber washcloths... which I also happened to be in need of. Sue I am so excited by everything you chose... you are most generous and kind. Did you make the towels with the lovely button hooks?

I hope everyone else is enjoying this swap as much as I am!!

And Sue (Cheermom) I am so glad your box arrived safe and sound and you were pleased. I thought the peacock was beautiful and I am so pleased that you thought so too! I just couldn't help but think of baking when I was looking at all these different dish towels... so glad to hear that you were happy!

All the boxes are wonderful... thanks for all the photos everyone... and of course to the hostess... thank you for hosting this swap!
