Holiday Swap Presents- Received!

An embellished canvas tote and handmade card...

 
...from my new friend, Jasmin...

 
...who decorated this capacious and functional bag...



...with leaves in my favorite color!! :)

 

*********************************************************************
From my friend, Zed...

...I received this wonderful nuno felt covered organizer. 
 
Look at the cunning way she blanket-stitched around the snap!



There are many delightful textures and fibers to admire... 
 
...plus, she included a terrific handmade holiday card, too!



Santa can take a little breather this year...

...since I've already been gifted with such lovely things!

Participating in holiday swaps with other artists is always so much fun...

...and if you're lucky, you acquire some nice new friends, as well!

I'm so glad you liked the organizer, Heather :)
I love the bag you received, the zip is a great feature, I don't often see that on tote bags. Lucky you! :)

Those are both great gifts. Yes, exchanges between Fiber Friends is always fun. I still use my sassy bag that you made me and the table runner is perfect for my spring decorations.
