Make Mine Modern Swap — Received!
Yesterday was a great mail day! After shipping off my swap items, I was prepared to sit back and wait a week or more to have anything show up at my door. Thankfully I didn’t have to wait long for this one!
The goal for this swap is to make something for your “sewing room”, and swap a bundle of 1 1/2 yards of fabric. I say “sewing room” because you all have seen where I sew! As I filled out the questionerre to participate in the swap, I of course mentioned that I sew at the kitchen table, and that most of my sewing space is very portable, and quickly dis-assembled.
Kiza made me a portable ironing surface – so perfect! I’ve used a towel on different surfaces in the past, just to avoid dragging the ironing board out (again) and this will see lots of use! There’s also a cute snap pouch, stitchery, chocolate and a stack of Monica’s Happy Mochi Yum, Yum. Fabric I’ve wanted but haven’t splurged on yet!

Are you itching to join a swap yet?
Happy sewing ~ Amy

Yes I am!!! That stitchery is too cute.
That is just darling! I love it! It’s so happy!
Beautiful!
I joined one scrap swap just as I had started quilting and it did not go well. I really didn’t have any quilting fabric to speak of and neither did my partner so neither of us got what we wanted.
I’ve started building a stash but still, not enough to share in a swap. ;D
Would love to join a swap… You starting one? ;)
Looks like a fun swap. The stitchery is so sweet.

How wonderful.
I could use a portable ironing table myself – my ironing board has lived in my sewing room since May! In fact, I noticed yesterday that the two hooks on the back of the laundry door that used to hold the ironing board now hold other things – a hat and the “peg apron”!
Does she have directions for ironing thing? I made something to fit a wooden tv tray and it’s worked ok but would love to see how she did yours!
Ooh OOh OOH! So cute!
Score! You had a thoughtful swap partner. I just saw that coin purse tutorial today. If it pops up in a third place I will become obliged to make one. :-)
Here is a link for a great ironing board tutorial for anyone interested:
