Emma had a rough time opening it up, as it was well taped. I got out the scissors and gave her a hand. I saw on the box that this was from Frances, but I was a little confused as I wasn't her partner in any current swaps... but wait, could it be? Is Frances my secret pal in the March Side Swap on Ravelry? OOOH! So fun!
I do like to unwrap things. Emma was thrilled, too.
We have a nice spring themed card from Frances with a hand written note inside, a post card from her area to add to our postcard collection, and a really cool slogan sticker that I have on my fridge door. "Beware of the sleep deprived mom!" It would look equally good on top of the coffee machine.
I had to take 2 group photos, as this is the most stuff I've ever gotten in a swap, and it all wouldn't fit together.
Lots of goodies!
Here is a cute little bunny broach for Emma to wear on her sweater. She tried it on her pajamas and checked it out in the mirror, then told me to try it on, too. It's adorable! I wonder how small the needles were for this? Emma then asked me about the spring stamp.
Next to become unwrapped was a treat from Lantern Moon... I love their notions! I have a rosemary wood cable needle from them that is amazing! This was a package of handknitted flower stitch markers, in such fresh spring colors! Emma right away asked to have one. I showed her how they like to hang on mommy's knitting needles to make my yarn pretty.
Here is not one, but two skeins of Blue Ultra Alpaca Berroco yarn! Nice an squishy, too! I wonder what it will become? That's not all... I'll have to do a second post to propery share the photos.
