I forgot to also mention to visit Nancy's blog, she has received the rescue package I sent for the Advent Swap after her partner failed to deliver. We don't know what has happened in this lady's life to prevent her from fullfilling her promise but I would like to see her return Nancy's goods.
This message is to everyone "If signing up for swaps read the terms and conditions before committing!"

Jo,
That was really sweet of you to do that for her! I was in a secret pal thing for 2009, supposed to get 13 packages, 1/month and a birthday present. Well, no one wants the details of how THAT came out. lol The swap mistress said that 2009 was the WORST YEAR EVER for dropouts and no-shows. What can I say? We blamed the economy.
Anyway, your gifts to her looked lovely. 8)
All the best,
Susan

Hi Jo :D *waving*
What a lovely person you are! All those goodies you sent to Nancy were gorgeous! Lisa
Jo, what a sweetie you are. Honestly that stocking would have taken me ages to embroider, not to mention the pincushion and bag. I was wondering if you uses a pattern for the bag and if you don't mind me asking what it was. Thanks Deb.
Hi Deb,
The bag is a pattern by Rosalie Quinlan called Nellie's bag and I used weaveline behind the stitcheries on the earlier post. It's nice to work with.
Cheers
Jo
it is no fun when you miss out........it has happened once before to me in a swap.......I don't like anyone to miss out....better late then never....I am sure Nancy is very happy...
Hi JO...what a nice thing to do..... I am sure she was very excited to recieve...thats what makes you special...again well done!!!
what a lovely thing to do Jo - its always sad when people say they are going to make something and then don't, without any explanations.

I haven't been in many swaps for years as I always seem to miss out.. but I went in one for Christmas and received gorgeous things and then I had the swap with you and I love my tote... my faith is being restored.. you are very kind to send in place of that person who dropped out.....
