friends swap–the one i received

I recently participated in the FRIENDS swap, hosted by Khristina of Sew Prim Khris. The idea of the swap was to send 7 gifts to your swap partner, one gift for each letter of the word ‘friends’.

My swap partner was Helen of Helbel’s World of Craft. When the parcel arrived I opened the box and was excited to see my beautifully wrapped gifts plus two extra!

“R” – Rocklea Road chocolates

“I” – inspiration, consisting of a magazine, embroidery threads, ribbons, buttons and tea!

Friends-107

“E” – Earrings kit

“N” – notebook and pen

Helen also sent a couple of extra gifts. One was for my little girl, a lovely kids book.
