Need some help....

Ok guys i need some help here, i have lately been neglecting "Exchange Heaven" i am sorry about that but with my new business i am just so busy working every day without a day off...

so i am asking is there anyone out there that would like to help out on here, arrange exchanges, sort partners and just keep things ticking along nicely, i will still be here and still want to do exchanges, it doesn't have to be one person it can be a couple so you can take it in turns so it doesn't become to much for one.

plus i want us to grow so advertise and get some new exchangers in and new ideas flowing etc etc...

anyone up for the challenge......

Thanks Lorna, it's lovely,  I have a project on the go now, and this will be perfect for it.  I love both sides, but the white one is my favourite.

Friday, August 20, 2010



Hello...Just a note to let you know I received my floss tag exchange in the mail from Rachael all the way over in the UK. I have been gone for a couple of weeks again but hopefully am back home now for a longer period of time. I have also sent off my floss tag (on time) but am waiting to hear if it was received. I will then post both tags on my blog as well.
Thanks so much!

A New Member...

Hello all!
I am new to the group and love doing cross stitching, smaller quilting projects, and a bit of hardanger too when in the mood. I came across this group the other day while looking at another blog site and love participating in exchanges so decided to join the group.
I live on the "Iron Range" of Northeastern Minnesota, USA but I grew up in central Mn. I am, 58, and retired from working full time when my husband retired almost 3 years ago. Before I retired I worked in fabrics/crafts as a Dept. Mgr. for many years. You can imagine the stash I have!?!? LOL We have 3 grown children who all live away from home and 2 grand children.
I'm looking forward to making some new stitching friends. Please feel free to stop by my blog and see some of my past exchange projects and leave a comment if you'd like!
Take care!

Lynn

Gorgeous cushions everyone!

As my internet for some reason doesn't like letting me post comments I thought it best to say a big congratulations to everyone as all the cushions have turned out gorgeous just like the rest of our exchanges.
Here is the cushion I received from Jane, I'm so sorry I haven't been on to post sooner, I received it at least a couple of weeks ago. It is just so sweet! Thankyou jane!

PILLOW ARRIVED


WOW, I couldn't have asked for something better for me.
I LOVE strawberries (ask my DH) and when I saw it, I couldn't understand why I did not have that pattern.
Thank you so much Lorna, what a bright spot this pillow makes in our LR and every time I look at it.
was also trying to figure out how you sewed it and beyond me......!!!!

Thank you Vivan

The postman almost forgot to deliver this yesterday, he'd pushed my mail through and then knocked on the door a few minutes later with this saying he almost forgot, lol.
Vivan stitched this perfectly for me and she sent some great goodies too.
But not only that she also stitched a bookmark as well and pinned it to the back
Thank you so much Vivan, I love it and have it sat on my table so I can see it whenever I look up


Thank you, Lucy

I received this gorgeous cushion from Lucy yesterday.  The postman had tried to deliver earlier in the week, but I was out.  It was well worth the wait and I am enhoying looking at it when I'm sat in the living room.

Thank you, Lucy

Wonderful cushion received

Here is the lovely cushion and extras from Lindsay.. it is all beautiful and such a lovely surprise.
I have always loved this design when I saw some one else had stitched it and it is perfectly stitched.

Included were some fantastic fabric with all stitchy bits on it and some smelly thread.. all wonderful.
Thank you indeed Lindsay  I am delighted.
