Arbor Day Exchange Sent & Received

I was in the Arbor Day Exchange on the Holiday Exchanges Group recently.
On Saturday I received this beautiful pinkeep  from Edgar. Isn't his stitching & finishing beautiful!!
Edgar chose Winter from The Workbaskets  "Workbasket Seasons". I absolutely LOVE it!!! The Workbasket is one of my favorite designers, so it was such a thrill receiving this.
 As you can see from previous entries on my blog that I have started displaying my pin pillows & pinkeeps in a basket on my coffee table. This one from Edgar is already in there and looks wonderful!
Thank You so VERY much Edgar for a wonderful Exchange! I will treasure it always!



My partner for this exchange was Blyn . I stitched a pattern from La-d-da called Little Tree. I stitched it on 28ct Honey Annabelle and used GAST Black Crow & Sarsasparilla that was called for in the pattern.
I have always admired the pillows I have seen on others blogs made this way, so I wanted to give it a try. It actually wasn't as hard as I thought it would be! I heard from Blyn that she loved the exchange I sent her. I really enjoyed stitching & finishing this for her.
