INITIAL HEART SWAP 2015

 
This the 3rd year I have participated in the Initial heart Swap organised by Cheryll.
 
My swap partner to make for was Lyn who lives in New Zealand. What to make???
 
 
The light bulb switched on when I was getting blocks ready for SAL 2015 - I had pages of the pattern instructions everywhere on my table so I went and got my pattern folder (a gift from another swap last year) to put them all in and I decided that I could do with a few more of these; that's when I decided I would make one for Lyn - surely every crafter needs at least one!!
 
 
The inside.
 

 
Extras - a FQ and some butterscotch.
I really enjoyed making the pattern folder for Lyn - I used to do a lot of Crazy Patchwork ponce but it is several years since I have done any!! I was in my element stitching away and embellishing (found I need to get some more beads etc).
I know that Lyn has received her gift and is very happy with it so another successful swap for me!!

    I should make a pattern folder too. That is a great idea and I could easily fill a folder with all the loose patterns that i have in my stash
