SwapoWeen 2014 What I Sent

I loved shopping for my swap partner, Mary. I also made a few craft projects including a miniature candy corn canvas wall hanging,  a colorful yarn spider web in an embroidery hoop and a Halloween rosette. I hand sewed the rosette including adding a little embroidery, buttons, ribbons,mesh ribbon along with both tacky and hot glue.I also picked out a few items for Mary's children.

I participated in the 2014 SwapoWeen Blog Party event! The lovely Mary sent these Wonderful Pumpkin Autumn and Halloween delights! She and a friend even created this beautiful  kitchen towel and set of pot holders. They really did a nice job! We loved our Halloween package! Thank you Mary!
