Once a SeaSon Swap

Yes I know... I was a little late getting this swap finished but my partner Lyn understood and let me have a little more time. Unfortunately Lyn has closed her blog so I thought I should show you what I sent to her.
Remember this was a SpRiNg themed swap so of course "flowers" seemed appropriate. This is a 12in "mini" from "The Wooden Bear -Little Quilts 2 " called "July Blooms  " and I added a heart hanger. Perhaps Lyn will place it in her sewing area to remind her of this swap.


This was taken before I actually stitched the buttons.
I also added a few small items so I hope Lyn will think of me whenever she uses any of them.

Lyn said that she has lost her mojo at the moment so this little verse may help her get her groove back!.

You should buy fabric because.......


It's not immoral, illegal or fattening.
It calms the nerves, gratifies the soul and makes you feel good.
It keeps without refrigeration and you don't have to cook it to enjoy it.
You'll never have to feed it, change it,  wipe it's nose or walk it.
To participate in contests... the one who dies with the most fabric wins...
But most importantly....
Because YOU are worth it!

Very nice gifts! Lyn will love them. "I don't buy fabric because I like to sew - I sew because I like to buy fabric"!
