Cute Swap

I have been following Soma's blog Whims and Fancies for a long time.  If you don't follow her blog, you should go check it out right now, she is an absolutely amazing paper piece designer having designed some awesome instruments like a piano and a bunch of Doctor Who designs.  Go on now, I'll wait here while you visit her blog :)

I was very excited to see Soma commenting on a post of mine one day.  We got to e-mailing and realized that we have some very similar fabric and color preferences and decided to have a little swap.

I sent Soma a matching cathedral window pincushion and thread catcher using Architextures by Carolyn Friedlander (for Robert Kaufman) and Essex linen in black.

And here are the wonderful goodies I received back.  Soma made me this wonderful zipper pouch and snap pouch.  They are both living in my purse right now and I have already gotten so many compliments on them. (I really needed a zipper pouch and had it on my list of things to make, but like most just-for-me things it had been pushed to the bottom of the to-do list.)

I had such fun with the swap, thank you so much again Soma!
