Houses Come Home!

The QB5's "What Do You See?" swap is starting to arrive!
This is what Patty saw and sent back!
Doncha love it?
I adore it.....
We could add a few pieces of our own stuff...and she did.
I sent a rusty rabbit to all of them...and I've gotten 3 back... and so far NO ONE has
used the rabbit!!!
But Patty had a rusty bird and that's what is on the rooftop!
I love birds!!!
...and she made one of her sweet wire bird's nests for it, too!
And there is a sweet hankie that is from her mother's house.... suspended from the bottom!
Below is a photo of what I sent....I don't see the rabbit in that shot...but I'm sure he's just hiding ... you know how they are.
I sent them all in Texas Tamale bags.....cause everyone needs a Texas Tamale bag to keep.

Here is what I made for Patty.... and you can visit her to see some better pictures.... I have two more houses to show you in the next few days....

and one more to arrive from New Zealand still.

Plus I have to do a house.

They are going to look so great all hanging together!

  7. I have NO idea what a texas tamale bag is! But I do know loveliness when I see it, and I'm seeing it in Patty's work! What a fun trade. Can't wait to see the rest of them!

  8. Oh MAN! I have to WAIT to see the others?!!! You're killing me Linda! I know what mine looks like, but still.

    Patty managed to use most of your stuff and TWO windows?! (over achiever!) I love the hanky "skirt". So sweet and domestic. A house I want to visit! :)

  9. I am so loving all of these creations and so sorry about your friend. That hit my college group a few years ago and it was hard, so hard. Love to you sweetie.

Adored the kipper tin you made for her as well! A really fun challenge...what will you all do to top this one?!!! Can't wait to see!
