Craftaholics Handmade Gift Exchange

I partisipated in I first made the above tote bag.  I call it The French Country Tote.  This tote is reversible.  The second picture shows it reversed, shoing the pocket.  The pocket is divided in two and one side is shorter for you cell phone.

I worked really hard on this tote, then hurried to the post office to mail to my gift partner.  I was so proud of myself for completing  it and mailing it on time.

I received 6 beautiful bracelets and two decorative balls from my gift partner. Sorry I thought I had a picture of her gift to me, I will post later. She had not received my gift to her, when she emailed me she was going on vacation.  No problem I know I mailed it, she will get it while she is on vacation.

After the last email I decided to checked its progress and it showed delivered.   But something did't seem right she should have had it, so I went back into the email I was sent with her name and address and found I had sent it to the wrong gift partner.  I had been assigned a gift partner but hadn't gotten a responce from her, so I asked for a new gift partner.   My first gift partner and my second gift partner had the same first name.  I thought I had deleted the email with the first gift partners information, I guess not!  I feel really really bad about this.  I soo love the bracelets I received.  I have been wearing one of them almost everyday since I received them. 

So gift partner #1, I hope you are enjoying the gift I sent you.

I will put pictures of the 2nd gift I made after gift partner #2 receives it.. I made sure and mailed it to the correct person this time.

Now I am off on vacation tonight.  I will be back next Sunday.
