I got my box! It looks like they stopped it at customs because the lovely yellow tape is there. I haven't opened it yet though. I want to video tape myself opening it so you can get my reaction. I promise by the end of the week!

LOL! Doesn't surprise me that customs stopped it. Those evil guys! I will say that it is themed for your daughter as it seemed easier for me to think of things for her (don't ask me why lol). So, you might get a better reaction from her. Haha!

Honestly, I had some great ideas for stuff I wanted to do for both of you (a little bit for her and a little bit for you) but every time I found something awesome for you and I found the things I needed to do it I didn't have the money to get it and when I did the stuff was on backorder/sold out/etc. It got very frustrating and I ran out of time. :\ You should see the folder I have of "things to do" for this swap. lol

I have not.

Yours is the only one I have no idea about, other than the person sending it is always late but always sends something good!

Just wondering if there is an update?

I am so sorry Mei Tow, but I FINALLY opened the box yesterday. My schedule has been so crazy I couldn't find time for Jordan and I to open it together until last night.

I just edited and uploaded the video. I also made sure to mention Sprite Stitch a few times and published it on the Craft Hacker You Tube account to get more attention and publicity for the site. I tried to embed the video, but of course it isn't working too well. So the video can be found here: http://youtu.be/67opm4w1VMg

Whoo hoo! I'm glad you both liked everything! As I commented on the video, I didn't make the plushies (although I'm very interested in learning how!). The bag took me so long to stitch and I felt the box needed more than my slow-to-stitch butt's cross stitch so I found those online and got them to go with my Minecraft theme.

I hope I can get you again in a swap so I can make some of the things I wanted to get to and didn't have time!

I realized after I made the video that they weren't hand made, but we loved them anyways! Her FAVORITE thing is the bag. Jordan is learning to cross stitch. Her comment when I turned the camera off was "that must have taken forever!"

LOL.

I'm really glad she likes it! I confess it took me way longer than it should have (I get bored/burned out really easily so everything takes forever lol). I really should have been able to finish it by the deadline, at least I think I should have been able to. I'm glad it was worth the wait though because I felt really bad about being so late with it! I will say that it was the biggest piece I'd stitched up to that point as well.

It's awesome she's learning to stitch as well! Keep up the good work Jordan and you'll be great at it!
