F. R. I. E. N. D. S. SWAP WITH JANICE





Remember the swap I told you I had signed up for and that my Partner was from Kettering,
well here she is...
This is Janice and myself at my group, I took my machine along for her to use as I know she cant do hand sewing for long periods, she came to have a look at us and stayed all day;
AND
she is going to come again.. Great
Lovely lady a pleasure to have her at my group and as a friend...



Janice had pipped me at the swap we are in, she has completed
the swap items for me and brought them all along and [presented me with them.
First there is a list of the letters and items,
my Suzanne and me had to smile at the words, talk about cheating hahaha
good one Janice....



Now the GIFTS...

Janice I am gobsmacked with these gifts, each and everyone of them I love, thank you so much. They are just perfect for me. I have a hard job on my hands, I will never think of such wonderful things, mind you, as you kind of, we think, bent the rules a tad, I am going to do the same, hahahaha, I know you wont mind.
When we got home we all sat and thought of things for the letters for you and we have come up with some ACE things.

Here is Janice's Blog for you to go see how she fared at my group

Brilliant show and tell. How spooky - I have just pulled out a load of Secret Garden squares made several years ago and started to sew them together and then I read this!

Hey Janice,
stick with me and I will teach you all I can. Will be a pleasure. So pleased you enjoyed the day.

Hi Maggi,
Spooky indeed. I love the CWSG, it is always a showstopper don't you think. Time consuming but as I told the ladies, once the blocks are joined and the windows in, it is finished....well almost. hahahaha
