Add me to the list of those willing to make something. :)
I think so, Brain, but can the gummi worms really live in peace with the marshmallow chicks?
I think so, Brain, but if they called them "sad meals" nobody would buy them.

Update on this too. It was received and loved! She hasn't been able to post due to lack of computer and apparently Sprite Stitch isn't particularly mobile friendly, but I talked to her in email and she did tell me she thought it was awesome! :D

Add me to the list of makeup gift volunteers.

Also, I have pics of the gifts I sent, I know you said she had received them, BMH, do you think she'd mind if I posted pics?

Great! I am glad she got it and loved it. :)

Here is a picture of the pattern that I made (I still can't find the pictures). :( Of course since she listed Zelda games as one her favorites.... I had to do another Zelda Sampler :grin:

Here's what crickettchan received from me:
Spoiler
From Fallout 3, some Nuka Cola bottle cap magnets. I took some IBC Root Beer caps, distressed them with a hammer and some sand paper and glued the Nuka-Cola logo to the top and some magnets to the back. My husband almost didn't let them leave the house, but I promised him I'd make some more for him.

Spoiler
And, from Portal, her very own Companion Cube trivet/cheese tray! I had been wanting to try some blackwork, and this project seemed like the perfect opportunity. I almost didn't let this one leave the house because I thought it turned out so well. I will definitely be remaking one of these for myself.

Spoiler
Better picture of the blackwork detail.

I had plans to make more for her, but life got in the way and I was already almost a month late in sending them anyway :/

Merryweather, Link, I love everything you both made. I'm glad we finally get to see it!
Link, that blackwork Companion Cube is beautiful and a great idea! :grin:

:shock: OHMYGOSH! Jadely, I am sooo sorry it has taken me so long to post this. My swap gift arrived safe and sound a while ago.

I got an adorable grey felt bag with Link holding the Triforce stitched onto it, a nifty little on the go cross stitch kit with nice sharp scissors and some floss cards, and the coolest biscornu ever! Additionally I got what every crafter needs, more storage, in the form of a plastic organizer.

Thank you sooo much Jadely! I love it all and I'm so sorry it took me so long to put this up. Things got a little hectic around here right when my package arrived and in the confusion I thought I had already posted.[/color]

Hi everyone!
Just checking in to say I still haven't seen anything in the mail yet. :(

BUT


I have had my mailbox broken into about 6 (yeah 6) months ago, and the landlord/body corporate still hasn't fixed it properly. I know i've had stuff recently stolen out of there, and since BMH said it had been sent, i'm guessing that's what may have happened to it. :cray:
Working on:
Retro X & Y! - lost the pattern and fabric, but it's resurfaced :D ...and i've lost it again lol
