Thanks for your message. I do hope things are getting back to normal for all the people affected by HUrrican Ike. We moan about our weather but we are so lucky that extremes are very rare here., just rain, rain and more rain!!!!

ATCs are 3 1/2 ins x 2 1/2 ins. I've only just started making theem and they are a lovely size. I've put some on my blog if you would like to swap. Two are gone, the autumn one with a gold leaf and one of the lace ones. Or perhaps you would like to do a themed swap? My email addy is thompson_di@hotmail.com.

I have been very remiss and not thanked you for my beautiful postcard. However, I have been off work for nearly three weeks feeling very unwell. Still I'm on the mend and getting sorted out again.
I love the way you have managed the shadowing using lighter coloured wool. I love felted things things and have done a little needle felting. My postcard to you is in the post tomorrow morning. do hope you like it. I've made a few ATCs to swap if you are interested. I've put them up on my blog.

Take care

It is at www.paperbackswap.com and the books do not have to be paperback. You post the books you have to trade and if someone wants it, you will get an email asking you to confirm that you will mail out the book. When you mail the book and the receiver confirms that they got it, the system will issue you one credit. Generally, one credit gets you one book. You can take your credits and browse through the books available and order from them, or you can make a wish list and wait for a particular book to be posted as available. I have found that my craft books go within seconds of being posted, and I have waited a long time for some books that I wanted to become available. If you want to try paperbackswap.com, let me know and I will "gift" you a credit so you can try it out! I cleared out my bookcases and have many more credits than I can use.
