I don't know what happened to the last month and a half. The end of the school year is always a blur but at least the kids are done, finals are over and we can all relax a bit, finally :) I have (almost) nothing to show for being gone so long. Two exchanges I can't show yet, and a third I forgot to photograph before it was sent. This is what I received from Mare for the BBD #9 exchange. I love these little stockings but I can't manage this finish myself--anything oddly shaped is just beyond my skill level--and this one is just adorable, I think! Mare said the pattern was one the BBD girls produced for a retreat, so I don't know the name or if it even has one. I forgot to take a picture of what I sent (a box with a pattern from the Honeysuckle Manor booklet) but perhaps Mare will post a photo if she has time.
I have been very, very bad and not touched any WIPs at all for ages but I will get back to them as I am starting to feel guilty. I think Kindred Spirits will be first--I will finish it this year! In the meantime, I have been indulging my Supernatural obsession in a new way. This one is based in part on a freebie from The Primitive Hare, and n part my own design. Until next time!

Nice exchange -- such a cute piece! lol about the Keep Calm piece. Love it!
aww lovely exchange piece and still giggling at your keep calm piece :)
love mouse xxxxx
What a fun exchange piece!! How neat! I love those little BBD stockings. I stink big time at finishing but, should you ever want to attempt the finishing yourself, Vonna has a great picture tutorial. I couldn't have done mine without it.
LOVE the keep calm piece! I'm such a dense twit that I was thinking, "She looks salt on her food, too?". Then I looked at the complete design again and the light bulb went off. LOL Very cute!
I just love your keep calm piece. It's great!! And grats on getting your exchanges done. If you can steal a pic from Mare's blog, I'd love to see it.
