I sent dear hubby to put this little number and roll of scraps in the mail today, I have seen the receipt, it is not still in the car; so hopefully they will arrive with my partner next week, postal workers willing!
I hate the anxiety of sending things that I have invested so much of myself in; and I will be in a slight state of agitation until I know it is safe in the recipient's hands.
And just to 'up' my blood pressure, Cindy, Susan and I will be anxiously monitoring the whereabouts of almost 100 other pouches! Yes, we went large.
I am so proud to be a Mama in this swap, the purses are all stunning, everyone has made such an incredible effort to tailor their makes to their partner's preferences - it's been a superb!
And as with all swaps, now's the part where we all remember that someone, somewhere really has made something for us too. I don't think I am the only one who forgets about this bit! Despite pretty much staking a claim on all the pouches in the flickr pool, I never quite believe that one really is mine; I'm a bit like our 5 year old girls seeing every singer, actress or pretty lady on TV and saying 'I'm that girl'!
I am so nervous if my partner will like the pouch and the scraps!
ReplyDeleteYou three have organised such an amazing and lovely swap and it was so much fun to take part! Thanks :)
Ooh, looks fab, sure the partner will be swooning all over it (oh no, wait, that's a whole other Flickr group.. ;o) )
ReplyDeleteHappy babysitting, and try not to chew your fingernails down to the bone in the posting period!
looks great !! just on pins now waiting to see what is going to be for me and where it is from !!
ReplyDeleteHe could have just put it through the letterbox!
ReplyDeleteYour pouch is really gorgeous - how can the recipient be anything other than thrilled! I'm so envious! Next time you do a swap like this, I'm in!!

ReplyDeleteI'm the same, I look at all those pouches and leave my comments, but always forget that one of them is actually for me! Got mine sent off today and now looking forward to my delivery!

ReplyDeleteThis has been a great swap with some amazing pouches! Mine will be in the mail tomorrow, don't trust my husband with it!!
ReplyDeleteI always forget that I'm getting something in return in swaps so focused am I on making my partner's item(s)! I'm sure your partner is going to be thrilled.
