I know I can't post pictures but when I send it can I reveal myself or does the person who gets my present have to guess who made it?

Oh, I totally forgot to mention this earlier! :banghead:

You can put a letter or note in with your gift so that they know who it's from - then they can reveal that in their post.

Me too!! Metallic thread IS NOT my friend.... I'm a little unhappy with how that part of my swap gift(s?) turned out - I'll send it, but I'm going to do a bonus project because it's a little wonky :cray:

Yeah it just started looking worse and worse so I finally just put it down before I started killing something XD I'm going to have to pull out some stitches and fix them but not too many. Just going to have to learn patience for this part :P

Note to self: Do NOT attempt to stitch with metallic thread, as you will go insane and break things!

That aside, I finally have my idea \^^/

Yeah, ended up redoing mine :cray: Glad I did because it looks much better now, but.... still not a fan of stitching with the metallics, although it is shiny!!!
