Exchanges

Last month I took part in a couple of exchanges.
The first one was a card exchange on Stitchy Pen Pals a new group on Facebook for folks who want pen pals and to receive good old fashioned letters in the post :)

This is the one I sent.
I used a cover kit from a very old issue of Cross Stitch Collection that I discovered when I was looking for a design to stitch


This is the one I received, my partner told me that as soon as she knew I lived in England it jumped out at her as being the perfect one and she was right :)


Monday was reveal day for the Meet up Exchange over on Needlecraft Haven this time we had to stitch a coaster.
I dug this out of the depths of my stash for my partner who likes to garden


And this is the one I received from Clare along with a bag of my favourite humbugs :)


A closer look, Clare told me it's a Just Nan design and she changed some of the colours to purple
