SwaP GiFts

have been delivered around & across Australia by now I think.
Friends Having Fun Swaps sent "hexies" in various shapes & sizes... & mine went off to Barb over here.
Two zippered project bags...with EPP hexies on the larger one.
Did you notice the "hexie" sissor fob too?
I also included a Hexie Home folder for the "hexie" templates I added.
All these bags were made using pretty cream & reds "hexie" fabric.
Perhaps I cheated just a little... but I think it's NiCe fabric & after all... they ARE HeXiEs...lol
I found this at a craft stall & thought of Barb immediately... Barb does BeAuTiFuL hand crochet... but this was too cute to leave behind. It's fabric that looks like its crochet... as a pin cushion!
I sent my gifts to Barb in late March as I was away for most of April. I just didn't want Barb stalking the mailman waiting for her gift parcel to arrive... but Barb resisted the temptation until last weekend.

AND I RECEIVED from the gorgeous PEG from Happy in Quilting blog.
This is how Peg spoilt me for this HeXiE swap.
GorGeoUS Project Folder...
 Table Topper... absolutely beautiful...
 Mug Rug...
 This cup was filled with my favourite chockies... yummmmmm... delicious PEG
 All wrapped in this wonderful bag.
THANK YOU PeG   xoxox
This was a FUN swap... so a big hug to Peg & Shez for organising it.

I loved the crochet look alike fabric on the pin cushion. We all know that barb likes red so the red & white/cream couldn't be anything further from her favourite. Well done
