swap goodies

look what i got! for the dia de los muertos swap on swap-bot. i think it is very sweet. it's a free-form embroidery from anita(Bastet59) from humble, tx. with extra black fabric to make into a pillow if i want, and i think i will! some holiday cards and floss, too. how nice. :-)

did another swap on swap-bot. this time a day of the dead embroidery swap. hosted by snifferooski, who i got and sent this embroidery to. funny thing is she used the same pattern for her partner, but we both changed them up a bit, so that was cool. kinda crappy pic here but the only one i got. darn it, my camera is broken. maybe i'll get one for myself for christmas, hit up the sales. actually, sure i can get mine fixed. we'll see. anyway, i haven't received my piece yet for the swap. can't wait to get it. hopefully it's not a month late like the last time. but things happen, i know. oh, and it's a pattern by carina. http://www.etsy.com/shop/polkaandbloom
oh, finished a piece for my grandma. she wanted me to make it for her to give her secret santa. it's like one i made for my mom when i first started doing embroidery. here it is. a banner from sublime stitching with the julie west patterns, tattoo letters, and even the flower is from the lisa petrucci patterns with a little heart added. haha. sublime stitching all the way! :-)
cute!
starting on a piece for my friend kat. it'll be a kinda buddha theme. :-)
