The above swap was called a Gnome mug rug swap . The one on the left I made and sent to Canberra . The one on the right I received from overseas , the lovely lady even made them for my grandaughters
This a journal for a tea jornal swap I made for Amber in England
I was over a few months involved with other swaps , atc, bookmarks,tea bags , book pages to name a few . But I found that with postage expense and the lost swaps which you had to resend were reasons to stop with the overseas swap.
I found , still in swapbot a group that only sent around Australia called Active Aussie Swapaholics
Following are a few of the swaps I have been involved in
This was a instagram pincushion swap
On the left is what I made, an owl and mushroom pincushion for a lady in adelaide
The one on the right is what I received and it is used a lot
The owl is also perfect sitting on a mug rug that was from another swap, the cordinater very nicely angel for me when my partner didnt send
The next would be the swap that I enjoyed the most making . It was a A wonderland tea swap
Below on the left is what I made I cross stitched a tea wallet using washable canvas
I received the one on the left , a tea despenser with some lovely pictures on it , It was a shame it got dammaged in the post
Above is another swap , a personal scavenger swap. You had to list 10 ideas of items and your partner choose 5 . The above left is what I sent . I love revamping items , the green bag is a wollies grocery bag appliqued .I received the one on the right
The next is the last main swap that I am in , a traditional advent swap . The one on the left is the one I sent to perth and I received the one on the left . I am enjoying opening the parcels
I would like to remain in this group so I will do the montly small swaps like WTA, wimnner takes all which each month everyone that enters has to send something small to the person chosen
but no more intense swaps for me
