~Spring Pin Keep Swap 2014 goodies~

Recently I participated in Ravenwood Whimzies' Semi-Annual Pin Keep Swap 2014, and my partner was Sheila of:Seasons of Thy Heart. She sent the beautiful bee skep on a wooden pedestal pin keep pictured above. Sheila also sent: the pretty green kitchen cloth, a bunny on a crystal pedestal, an Easter egg tuck, a rusty can of Spring flowers, a painted bucket of white flowers, some Lemongrass melt tarts, a Spring Bunny Make-Do pattern, and a Spring Wool Pocket pattern. Thank you so much, Sheila. Everything is lovely, and very much appreciated. To see the items that I sent to Sheila, you can visit her blog and also keep reading.

These are the goodies that I made for Sheila. The pin keep is from a free cross stitch chart at: Gazette94, titled Rabbit Heart. It is atop of an antique brass and glass doorknob, and stands approx, 10 1/2" tall. The back is a cream-colored floral cotton fabric. Also sent were: 3 prim clothespins, a paper mache box with 3 paper mache eggs and Spanish moss inside, an olive and mustard plaid mat, a coffee-stained pink gingham flower, a barnyard red painted speckled can with a Potato Farm custom label, and a bag of Fresh Cotton potpourri. The photo above shows another can, but it was replaced with a barnyard red can. Many thanks to Sheila for being such a wonderful swap partner, and also to Wendy of: Ravenwood Whimzies for hosting this fun semi-annual swap.
