Theme Swap





I have just come back from 2 weeks with my beautiful grandson Jet. I got to babysit him for one day while his parents worked and also they had a date out on Saturday, some thing that don't have very often. A little romance...lol... they went and saw Batman at the movies so how romantic was that. I can't believe how well behaved the little guy is. His parents are excellent parents I am so proud of them both, but especially my son as he didn' have a father himself.

On my arrival home, I had heaps of wonderful theme swaps waiting and have spent the weekend just working on them all. Now I am up to date I can get back to my Round Robins.

My first theme is Helen's Sea Life. She used blue and yellow blocks. The blue were for the fishes etc and the yellow was for sand coral etc. As most people had used the blue blocks I went for the yellow and did some coral and starfish.

Then I did Sabrina's Herloom. I did a Pansy as most people love Pansies but in hindsite I should have done a chair or basket of flowers. I wanted to do a fan but thought Lorraine might like to do that so I left it.

Next came Lesley's 'Dress the Ladies'. I decided it being an Olympic year I had better do something Olympic again. You can see I love the Olympics so I did an Australian Netball player.

With the severe storm last night I did Lesley's swap before Ruth's as I didn't want to use the computer with all that horrid lightening. I think it is easier doing a swap for someone you know rather than a stranger. I did a bottle of Champagne for Ruth's '21st Birthday' swap for Christi.
