MT - many thanks for your unexpected card and gift today - so very kind of you. The card was, of course, made by MT's own fair hand - I will try to photograph tomorrow. And the beads are a mixed and ever so useful pack of bugle/ seed beads and also larger glass beads. Very generous of you, and it brought a smile to my face! You're a star. xxx

RAK thanks - October jewellery swap
MaggieJay replied to MaggieJay's topic in The Appreciation Society
I especially like ALL of them! ;-) xx -
Sorry about this being late - Internet problems. Many thanks for the generous participants in the October jewellery swap. Here's the pics of the lovely RAKS I received! Larger pic, from top left. The brown / green / amber beads are from Chris22, a gorgeously coloured mix. I can imagine them with gold colored charms and findings. Thank you Chris. The blue mix is from Bahrain Susie, the photo doesn't do them justice, as there are crystal bicones in there, charms, glass beads, clay beads - a real seaside holiday theme! Thank you, Susie - they will make some fab items. The three bags of multi-coloured beads are all from Maritrez, how bright and cheerful are they! Bright colours are a great challenge for me too.... watch this space!' The final group are handcrafted lampies from Purple Cobwebs, lovely subtle colours - they would work well with Chris's glass beads, I feel. Your lamp working ability is fantastic. The individual pic - this stunning little lot are from Cherry Obsidia. there are a variety of purple beads, and three bright lampies that Dee has made - delightful. Thanks Dee, like Purple Cobwebs, your lamp working also is amazing. thanks everyone for taking part. xxx

Just to point out ...the bracelet is from Bahrain Susie, not from me! ;-) Glad you like it. x

Here is the delightful bracelet I got in the October swap. All the makes were lovely and i would have been happy with any of them. So it was a random choice, but I love it. Esp those little dangle charm chains, MT, so cute. And brill colours - rather unusual for me as I'm a silver person. Thanks also for the beautiful card of Ode to Autumn which was your inspiration. Thank you so much for taking the time to select beads and create this little beauty. xx

Thank you Susie. They have all been posted today ... watch out for the postie over the next couple days! I took them to the PO to check the weights were all OK and to get receipts. xx
-
Final one here today! :cheese: posting pics on the opening post on this thread. And getting to the post office (for receipts) tomorrow. Posting at same time of course ;-) Thank you all for being patient xx

Wrapping it up tomorrow. The final one should be with me by then. xx

Just realised I hadn't posted to say Susies arrived yesterday! I altered the first post to include hers, but didn't add a message to the thread ... :red: xx

Wow - over a week late, but Purple Cobwebs make has turned up!!! It must have gone to the wrong house and whoever got it has posted it through my letter box. Its a bit stunning too and i love the interpretation of the poem too .... xx

Be A Darling Helen has had to drop out - she apologises - hasn't had reliable Internet for some time now, so wasn't getting the reminder notifications. xx

Hi Susie - not its not got here yet .... how long would it normally take? Maybe tomorrow. But as so few have arrived, I won't get them sent out before the weekend now... :long: xx
-
I'm doing some chasing up here! I've only received two makes so far ..... I know B Susie's is on its way and sadly Purp's make got lost in the post ... :down: Can you let me know when i can expect your makes - have you sent them, not sent them etc etc? thank you. xx
-
Chris - yours arrived today, great make! Thank you for the RAK it's fabulous - and a lovely colour combination. xx
