I recently took part in my first crafty blog swap, which was from Kate's blog. The pincushion swap. It was fun to have a new project, but as soon as it approached the deadline, when it had to be in the post, I was frantically trying to make it look pretty, as I left it to the last minute, because my original plan didn't work out as I hoped. So I dropped it in the post on the cut-off day, (when family was visiting for the day and I was distracted), and posted it without any nice note or anything, and felt self-conscious about the standard of it. (In my haste I didn't get a picture to show you, so you will have to just imagine it.)
So you can imagine my feeling of guilt when I received my pincusion and I was totally put to shame! It arrived with some cute star pins, and a lovely note explaining her inspiration for the design of it. A lot of thought went into it, and although I felt guilty, I was so delighted to receive it. Check it out! Thanks so much Linda!!
Note to self - don't leave things to the last minute!
