A very special secret swap.......







Vicki (Tozz'z corner) and I decided we'd like to do a secret swap just between us.We both fell in love with these fabric boxes and decided to make each other a box each.It turned out we were both thinking the same thing and decided to surprise each other with not 1 but 2 of these gorgeous boxes lol!We think so alike it's uncanny.
The first pictures are the 2 boxes I made for her and with the offcut strips I made her a tuffet.I also included a bumble bee pen I found when shopping, as soon as I saw it I thought of Vicki hehehehe.
The next picture are the beautiful fabric boxes Vicki made for me,aren't I a lucky girl!! I have yet to make one of the fabric bows but I think It will be on my to-do list for doing very soon as I can see more of these baskets being made up in the near future.
I'll also do my next post on the baskets I made up a couple of weeks ago but haven't posted about yet.
Thanks Vicki for being my secret swap partner I soooo enjoyed making them for you and I loved the ones you made for me.
