Internet Swaps are so much fun! this is what i got from one of my partners, Sue Van, a lovely fat 1/4, two lace doileys, and a pocket thread catcher with needles and scissor holder, this along with velcro dots to hold it onto whatever surface i want. Thanks It is just too cute!
These two patterns i bought from a charity shop in England comes complete (i hope!) with pre cut pattern pieces. I am going to make them and place them also under the K.Mart Wishing Tree.
Bears are almost done, Just need to go and get some safety eyes and noses before finishing the seams.
3 bears finished, Originally i started out with 5 but two went home to a lovely neighbor, unfinished who wanted to finish them herself .
Showing off their hearts. These felt heart have been vliesofix over the turning slit and then decoratively sewn around. The ribbons have been sewn on and their nosed have been glued and sewn and the eyes are safety eyes.
This is where the Swap came in. My neighbor, stopped off to me before she went to Greensborough Savers to see if i wanted any of the bits she was going to donate. This is the yummy stuff i chose. I did not want to take them for nothing so i offered her a couple of bears out of the fabric she gave me but she wanted the ones i had started and she wanted them unfinished to give them her own look. She is then going to donate them to the K.Mart Wishing Tree herself! How good is that!
