Autumn Glow swap

I took part in Blueberry Heart's 'Autumn Glow swap' (it was my first blog swap last year and I enjoyed it so much that I was so pleased to be able to join in again!).  My swap partner was the lovely Blueberry Heart herself and we emailed each other to sort out the practical details and then got making and buying.  Her presents were wrapped in a beautiful gold leaf patterned paper - almost too pretty to unwrap...almost!
 Here's what she sent me.  A tea towel with a shortbread recipe, a vanilla scented candle, a dried cranberry heart, an autumn diary, a hand made pumpkin picture, a hand made leaf shaped pot holder, some chocs (which didn't last long), a hot chocolate fudge drink, and a clay pumpkin, which was fragile and had sadly got broken in transit.  (However, armed with glue, it is mended and hanging on the seasonal tree and looking lovely!)  What a lot of lovely things - many thanks to Blueberry Heart for being such a great swap partner!
Here's what I sent: felt heart and brooch, earrings, bracelet, a polymer clay key ring, some autumn coloured mini-bunting made from sari materials, some hot chocolate, a notebook and pens, some daffodil and tulip bulbs and a tea towel.
I loved being a part of this swap and am looking forward to taking part again next year.  I do think I need to make myself some mini-bunting now, amongst many other projects currently underway!
