vintage button swap

April 26, 2007

I received a beautiful package in the mail from Melissa for the Vintage Button Swap.

Everything came bundled together in this amazing fabric box she made

It will now hold sewing supplies on my desk. Isn’t it so lovely!

And inside were all these excellent things

A card from boygirlparty, a sticker book for Roxanne, fabric (including some white and gold silk that is now wings on the peahen), amazing woven trim, and…vintage buttons, of course.  Such a great swap. Thank you, Melissa, and a big thank you to Sally for organizing such a fun swap again this year!

    I’m jealous for the box and the card, lovely both. Oh, and the buttons … and the ribbon … geez.
    Fabulous swap indeed.

    I’ve been seeing the results of this swap on a few blogs and I have to say, it’s been one of the best. If only I sewed…
