Another batch of Squishes sent out

I had emailed the people listed in the OHGWQ individual swaps database, and half of them got back to me wanting to swap, so I spent the morning constructing the wishes and I've just got back from the Post Office where I posted them all out :-) All the people have agreed to send two lots of fabric one for Little Prince and one for MeiMei, so both children's collections should start building up now :-)

Squish Eight

Here is the other Squish received this morning for Little Prince's collection :-)
This lovely pale green fabric, with different Asian animals of the Zodiac was sent from London :-) Thank you very much Dana :-)

Squish Seven

I received two sets of two Squishes this morning :-) One each for MeiMei and Little Prince from two different swappers - he was very pleased that he got some squares :-) It was definitely a good decision to start collecting for his quilt too - even if I do struggle to stay organised lol.
This lovely black fabric, with happy ladybirds, caterpillars and bugs was sent all the way from Down Under :-) Thank you Robyn from Victoria, Australia :-)

Catching up!!

I've just been over to the Post Office to FINALLY get some Squishes in the post. I have been a bit overwhelmed with the difficulties of getting Little Prince settling in school and Squish swapping was put on the back burner, while I dealt with Little Prince. Luckily he is now feeling a lot more settled at school, so both me and him are happier and I can start to concentrate on other things too!! The only problem with posting the Squishes today, is that there is another Postal Strike, so the envelopes will sit at the Post Office until next Wednesday!!
