I can't fathom where it's disappeared to - people have received stuff I posted out on the same day - so I don't know whats gone wong :( Let me know if it's not turned up anyway - if you message me or reply to this on Sunday, I'll knwo to post on Monday morning. It really bugs me when this stuff happens.

Bert you can post it out on Monday as i do not get post on the weekends at all, i ccant believe it has taken this long and it still has not got here.

Thanks Rose! Do you know when is she coming back? I am getting worried now if the package did not reach her. I think I better get myself ready to stitch a replacement.

Siti, that is beautiful! You just inspired me to make designs that is a bit more "airy" so to speak. I have a tendency to let as little of the background show as possible, which tends to make my designs a bit too busy. Yours on the other hand is perfectly elegant. The pearl beads certainly add to the effect.

As for the biscornu exchange, I think we should have it with a mail out date for October 1, 2010. The reason being that K1nS is running an ATC exchange (Disney) with a mail out date of September 1, 2010, and I'm running a Bookmark exchange (Bling) with a mail out date for September 15, 2010. I know that Angel is also running an ATC exchange (Nickname/Initials), but am unsure when the mail out date for that is. I think pretty much everyone who signed up for the exchanges requested mail out dates after September. Does this sound alright? Btw, who is up for hosting the next biscornu exchange?

Thanks Ladies for the nice words! ....I should gave credit to the rightful designer Sablaise .....i choose hers because i want something simple and fast to stitch...however, the scissor fobs is my design..i use spider web to make the roses...i thought it would be nice to have a set....

we will see what others will say for the next round of biscournu exchange. I have no problem for the mailing date as I always addicted stitching biscournu....i made another set as a gift already and now into another one to satisfy my itchy fingers...a lavendar biscournu... :dance: :dance:

I would like to join the next biscornu exchange, so October is perfect... it also means we could perhaps make them Halloween themed :D
