~OPAM (One Project a Month)~ and a Swap with Geo

One item this month for OPAM

It's a little pouch designed by Fiona at my Needlework Group

Here is the front

Inside

and back

Thank you so much Peg and Kris for running OPAM again this year

This pouch I then sent to my dear friend Geo (no blog)

She has been reading my blog along with others and wanted to get involved in a swap between ourselves

Between us both we set up a list of 12 various things to send but only choose 6 of them...along with a theme

 A bird theme was settled on for Geo and my gifts to her are above......starting from the top and going clockwise

Something handmade......pouch

Something to do......stitchery by Theodora Cleave along with a label by Theodora

Decoration.......little timber birdy by Theodora

Something for Husband.....organic Crystalized Ginger from Rustic Pantry

Jewellery......a peacock necklace 

All packaged up and ready to go above

And then into this bag with birds on it purchased from the Quiltmania Stand at the Sydney Quilt and Craft Show this year

And of course I had to get myself one too!

These are the gifts sent to me by Geo

My theme was 'turquoise'

You can read more on this swap over here 

Thanks Geo......I have thoroughly enjoyed this swap......and I know you have too!

I've been a little flat out here

I have little GS Ryan here and between him and JoJo I've been kept hopping and I haven't been able to get around to comment on all my favourite blogs

but I have been lurking around in the background there reading

 I do read each and every comment and appreciate them all 

Until next time Happy Stitching......and of course, Bon Appetit
