I signed up to be a part of the Once a Season Swap hosted by the amazing
Cheryll and was given
Maria as my partner. So I set about making and gathering summery things for her.
I made her a flour sack tea towel with a blue floral trim - summery in my book. I did read somewhere on a blog that flour sacks are more absorbent than standard tea towels - I'm hoping Maria will let me know, as I have not tried one yet.
I made her a table topper in a mix of soft summery pinks with my new Go Cutter dies - it was perfect to justify buying them as Maria so
needed this table topper lol.
My little home made quilt label.
Body spray from Avon - strawberry and white chocolate and as I bought 2 I can honestly say is really does smell like strawberries and white chocolate. Yummo!
Seed for the garden - Cosmos.
Smellies for the cupboards - you can't have too many of those I say!
And lastly a cupcake. I'm glad it made the journey and the best part is that Maria won't have to feel guilty about this little beauty as it is a candle. Just the cutest thing ever.
