SSCS...

 I have had this post in draft for the last few days,, and just reading Chookyblue's blog reminded me that I had not actually taken it out of draft and had better do something with it!! My swap partner Sonia sent me these goodies...


these goodies were all very prettily wrapped in lovely blue and green tissue
and this was the Christmas ornament

isn't it ever so cute!
.... and the peice de resistance!!! Ta da!!!! A super duper really scrummy table runner in wonderful, fabulous Lumiere De Noel collection by French General fabrics which I just adore,


and all these wonderful goodies too, what a super duper SSCS, a really BIG heartfelt thanks  to  both Sonia, and Chooky

Now on a far more serious note, 'cos I know how happy I was to unwrap all these goodies... 

My SSCS partner was Lori, who has not yet recieved her parcel - QUELLE HORREUR!!!  I simply cannot believe this - if you follow my blog you will know that I had a horrid time around swaps last year, and was not at all keen to repeat the experience, so very carefully organised myself and sent the  parcel away on time at the end of November, but ALAS, it has not arrived at it's destination. I have been stalking and lurking on both Lori and Chooky's blog to see if they have arrived every other day, but NO. Poor Lori... left waiting for her parcel, so back to the drawing board - well sewing machine, and back onto it - so watch out Lori, I will send you an email when I post off the second lot....

have a  very happy day everyone!

Glad you like your gift Shiree - so sad about your parcel to your partner not arriving....

I agree with chooky - sadly your images are to large to view.

But i know what they all looked like hee hee.

happy to share the chookyblue sscs swap love with you.

Oh Shiree you do have "poo" luck with your swaps don't you. Poor Lori, she will really be missing out if it doesn't turn up too as I know what beautiful work you do. Can you track and trace with your receipt from the Post Office?

What a terrible thing to happen Shiree...all that work! I so hope it turns up soon, so that you don't have to start over again :(
Your pressies look lovely...lucky you!

Oh no, not again. (Hugs) I agree with the girls, give it a few more days before you start again. I'm sure the package will turn up. Please don't let this stop you from swapping in the future.

Hi Shiree, Some lovely things you have received! Hopefully that missing parcel will arrive soon. Kind regards, Anita.

They are really big...I can't tell you why it is happening, but wish I could help. I am sorry about your parcel not arriving...that would so annoy me.
