this is what i sent in the online xmas swap

 Now my partner in our online xmas swap to send to was the lovely Joy
 I couldnt resist one of Nancy Halvorsen patterns for the tea towels especially as this parcel was for Joy.
I also made 2 matching kitchen hand towels to go with it.

And added another lovely tea towel so these altogether were for the parcel to put under the xmas tree.

 We were to add a xmas decoration and this is a lovely Yvonne W design which i made into a ornament.
 For something to read i included the new Patchwork and quilting mag.
 Something yummy to eat so i popped in these rum balls.
 For something smelly,i popped in some rare pearls hand lotion.

And for something for the sewing room i put in a shabby chic sewing whatnot and 2 lovely panels of beautiful rose fabric.
I had lots of fun putting this parcel together for Joy and a big thankyou to Maree for hosting this fun swap.


cheers shez xx
