Internationally Swapped Goodies

A while ago, Wild Olive organised a stitch swap which I participated in. Of course, because it sounded like a lot of fun! Now that I've gotten my gift (and I assume my gift-ee has gotten it by now? I emailed her!)

For the gift that I was going to send out, I was told that union jacks and Welsh flag things. So I decided to stitch the Welsh flag - I had no idea how awesome it was!! It was also a pretty good practice for fill stitches...

What I sent out!

Wild Olive Stitch Swap

I didn't want to just post off the embroidery on its own, so when I saw this adorable little kangaroo keyring, I had to include it! (Seriously. How adorable is it?!? I was so close to keeping it... Hehe.)

Since I missed out on the first round and didn't hear anything from my swap partner, so someone else stepped in and made something for me. I got this!! (it's awesome and I love it. Thanks go to my awesome new swap partner!)

Cupcake Closeup!

Cupcakes!

She included a necklace and the most adorable key chain! I haven't figured out where to hang the embroidery yet, but I'm sure it'll be in somewhere obvious because it's just so cheerful! Can't wait to participate in another swap.

So until next time,
