This is the exchange that I sent to Joanne. She sent me a beeswax bear. I have yet to take a good photo of it. I am hoping that she will post a pic and I can steal it to post here.

Exchange Received!!!

Received this lovely item from Ohlala Broderie, Potel. Doesn't she do just perfect work. I am very happy with this exchange. You can't see it but the fabric is iridescent. This is the second of 4 exchanges that I am involved in this fall. I have sent out 2 and am working on the 3rd and 4th. I am waiting for my 1st partner to post pics so that I can put them on my blog. I still don't have a computer to put data on. The 1st was a beeswax bear with iridescent coloring on the front. Happy Fall !!!!!!

I have 3 others going that are do between Nov 1 and Dec 1. I love this time of year as I meet lots of new people through exchanges.

Chart Wanted

Can anyone help me find or do you have a copy of Cross Eyed Cricket #140 "Keepsake". I have #141 Keepsakes II and would like to stitch the other 6 in the Brides Tree Ornaments. I would love any help you can give me. I am using a borrowed computer so I am not online as often as I would like to be. Send me and email. It is in my profile. Thank you to all in blog land.

COMPUTER CRASH !!!!

OMG, MY COMPUTER DIED!!!

I am borrowing a computer to get email and to try and keep up with my blog reader. I am not going to be posting any pics for a while. I am involved in 4 exchanges and have to get them done. I lost most of my patterns and my Gift Of Stitching Digital magazine copies. A friend is going to dump my hard drive but that won't be for a couple of weeks. Seems the mother board on my 10 year old computer decided to have a nervous break down. I am left with the Christmas patterns I have already printed off and some books of patterns that I have from years ago. Hope my partners aren't too picky. More later, gotta go.
