Swap Love!
As you may remember from my swa(m)p scarf, I participated in a fiber swap this holiday season.
The amazing Nicola (www.clasheen.wordpress.com) paired us off...
...and I was so lucky to get my swap partner!
Kim (www.viltalakim.blogspot.com) is an extremely talented felter...
...and also very generous; not only with her gifts (as you can see here), but with
her tutorials and answers to my many technical questions.
She sent me amazing new fibers (dyed flax-who knew?) and cool, organic 'inclusions' for my felting...
...and all in my favorite colors!
I don't even know where to begin!! :)
Her leaf-accented nuno scarf is so elegant and perfect...
...I may never take it off!
I feel really lucky and blessed that Kim and I are now friends...
...and I look forward to many more years of sharing our love for felt and stories of our lives and families...from across the sea!!

This is a brilliant swap package and I am delighted that you exchanged gifts with such a great partner! Just a quick question, what is the magazine or book peeping out called??? Not sure that I have this one! X Nicola
