My exchange TO Katie
I put alot of efert into making it and my favourite bit on it is the bows and the stitching. I made a needle roll and put the lace on the ends myself with my own idea. I did it all on the sewing machine and it was good fun stuffing it like a hotdog then I rolled it like plasterscene. I surprised my Mum with what I did.
This is the back........
Did you guess it is a Mary Kirby?? I had 2 of France so I kept the one from Carols present and used my other for Katie. Thats why I chose this one from my stash to do. I want to do mine now to go with the pinkeep.
I sent Katie some presents to they are on her blog she liked this exchange as much as me so we are both happy :)
I have something else to show you which will be on my blog soon. Please leave a comment if you like our first exchange.
Look down from this and you will see Katies to ME :))

I am so very impressed with your stitching and finishing skills Amy! Since I get to see them first hand...they are quite exceptional for a young girl just 8 y.o. I don't know if Katie could have done this all by herself! You did a spectacular, smashing job of it all and Katie loves it!
Big Hugs to you sweetheart and you two will have to continue e-mailing each other now!
Both exchanges - Katie's and yours - are beautiful! I think you're both very talented and I'm glad you enjoyed exchanging with each other :)
You did a great job with your needleroll-espcially adding the lace at the ends.
You both did such a great job! It's fun to do exchanges, isn't it?
You did that all yourself! You are amazing! Congratulations!!
BRAVOOOOO es sensacional.... muy hermoso felicidades....

You and Katie both do such beautiful stitching! I can see why you are happy with your Strawberry with wings! I love everything about the needleroll you stitched. You are very creative and talented.
Enjoy stitching,
Nancy
Amy, I first saw your needleroll on Katie's Blog and was so impressed. You did a beautiful job stitching and finishing this~
How exciting that you have made a new stitching friend :-)
Well done!! You are very talented, it runs in the family!
I love your needleroll Amy...it's so pretty with the lace on the ends. Bet Katie loves it too! :o)
You are a very talented stitcher! Great job on your first needleroll. Stitching is so much fun when you can share with friends!

really lovely !
Hi Amy, I just found your blog! You've done wonderful stitching and finishing :) I especially love this needleroll you sent to Katie and the pinkeep "Home", it's so pretty! My daughter who is 12 years old just had her hair cut yesterday and it looks very much like yours, it's also cut in layers :)
Hi Amy!
I looked at both your exchange piece and the one Katie did and they are both wonderful! You girls should be so proud of yourselves. It's nice to see another generation of stitching pals forming.
If you girls post what you like, I'm sure I can find some more goodies in my stash.
Hi Amy I love the needleroll you stitched and finished it is just lovely and I bet Katie really loved it. Patti x
