Celebration Swap, fat 1/4 swaps and fat 1/4 birthday swaps....phew!

 For the Celebration swap my lovely partner Leanne sent me this gorgeous spring stitchery and fabrics.....wasn't I spoilt! Love the stitchery now to think about what I want to make it into and incorporate the fabrics Leanne sent along with them....MMMmmm maybe a block keeper or a cushion???? will have to think a bit before I decide what to do with all these lovely goodies. Thanks Leanne I love everything you made and sent me :)
 This is the spring stitchery I made up for Leanne, but naughty me forgot to add any fabrics so I'll be sending some of with Leanne's birthday gift later next month, the stitchery is designed by Kaaren from http://thepaintedquilt.blogspot.com/  she has some lovely freebies on her blog if you want to go over and have a look :)
 I'm also involved in a couple of fat 1/4 swaps and last month I swapped with LeAnnne and she sent me the beautiful red and white fabrics on the left for July and the fabric on the right are from Maryanne for our August swap. A big thank you to both ladies as they will go beautifully with the others in my stash that I'm collecting for a special quilt :)
 These yummy spotty fat 1/4's and threads went to Sharon for her birthday this month :)
 and these pretties went off to Heather for her birthday as well :)
These are the fat 1/4's I sent to LeAnne for July's fat 1/4 swap and I know she's received them and liked what I sent her :) I'm a bit like Maryanne and forgot to take a photo of the fat 1/4's I sent her but I know she's received them and liked them as well so all's good with the swaps I'm in and I'm now up to date and ready for next months commitments lol :)

Barb, you belong to so many Swap groups. I take my hat off to you. Belonging to the Fat 1/4 Swap is enough for me; I would be worried sick if I had so many swaps. Thanks for photographing the fat 1/4s I sent to you!!!
