Whatcha Working On Wednesday!!!

How was everyone's day???....I must say that my days have been challenging!!!...There is a reason they call it the TERRIBLE TWOS!!!!!

Wow! I haven't done a Whatcha Working On Wednesday in a while...So mine is going through pictures of stuff I've received and sent while I was painting and not posting much...I got an email from Jazy that she had received my swap from the Primitive to Extreme forum that Robby started several months ago...Our first swap was to send a fat quarter size of our favorite fabric and see what it comes back as...My swap partner was Jazy {Dry Creek Primitives blog} from Australia...I sent her a brown mustard colored piece of fabric...She made me this primitve doll and seedbag out of it and sent other goodies, too...I have the star in my dough bowl that I have as my new header on my selling blog...Thank you Jazy!!!
















And in return I sent her a schoolgirl sampler I just stitched up free hand...
























~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's a candle I received back when I was doing all my painting and not blogging much...It is from Heather of "The Olde Summer Kitchen"....She just emailed me one day and wanted my email address and wanted to know what fragrances I liked that she wanted to send me a candle..I quickly told her I like fruit fragrances especially this time of the year...I received "Hot Apple Dumplins" and it is heavenly!!!...And doesn't it match my kitchen perfectly???!!!???..I haven't burned it yet because it's too pretty, but I leave the lid off....So go check her out at her ebay store!!....I call her the tree lady because she is the one I email when I see an unusual Christmas tree I want her to keep an eye out for...I bought my German Twig Christmas tree from her and plan on getting more this year......











~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These are some goodies I received from my friend, Robby, from Glory River Primitives that lives in Scotland....I must not have taken pics of the Halloween samplers I sent her because she wanted Halloween....She sent me chocolates, a Jackie Schmidt doll that I've shared before, an amish card, a little Amish doll, long amish socks, a primitve flower {that my dd has taken ownership of}, a pantry cake, a sweet snowman face and a gingerbread man...It was mailed while she was over in the US on a trip to Intercourse,PA this past January....I absolutely love my goodies!!!











Well, that is all for now...I still have more pics to share of new goodies!!...Until Next time!!!.....hugs, Jen
