More More More!

More Swappage! I seem to have got quite a few parcels over the last few days, which is awesome as I've been having a mixed crappy week!

Here is my March Ten Dollar Swap Package from Helen in Johnstone, Scotland :~)




I got sweet yarn, and a letter opener - awesome as I've trying to find one for ages, I loves them :) I got sweeties, and a postcard and a reusable bag, and a book by Paulo Coelho - who I discovered in India last year, and love! A Perfect package!!



In my other package I got my belated birthday present from Allan:


Pretty Pretty Shoes! I have some black ones that are very similar, and I wear them with skirts, and have wanted a brown pair for ages - and now I have some!! Hurrah! :~)

I'm off doing errands and having tea/coffee/other beverages with an old friend.

Swappage

Here is my first swap package from wonderful Lin, in Canada...

There's a book, some chocolate from Vancouver, some DPN's, an amazing robot stick on patch, and some absolutely gorgeous yarn from Crystal Palace Yarns called Mini Mochi, in an awesome colourway: (photo stolen from their website as my camera's poo!) Fern Rainbow



My mum's coming down for the day tomorrow, so I'm attempting to tidy, and failing - as usual. I might stick everything in a box and cover it with a blanket, and hide stuff in my room and close the door!
