man...

I was a diligent little sorter last night. I divvied up all the ATCs I had on hand for the swap, labeled all the envelopes, packaged all the treats, and wrote all my thank you notes for the sweet gifties people sent along with their cards. When the last two sets of cards arrived in this morning's mail I divvied those up and now everyone's envelopes are one their way! They may even make it by this Friday!! In the end it all worked out well.


recycling a picture here because the post feels naked without one...

There will of course be a Christmas ATC swap and an ornament swap too. I used to participate in ornament swaps with a group of primitive/folk art designers and almost always loved what was sent to me. I didn't do any ornament swaps last year or the year before due to travel schedules and other obligations. I am already feeling the itch to jump into at least one this year so why not host it as well? Details on both to come November 1st! Coming later this evening: a teeny-tiny freebie stitchery pattern.
