Here are some of the swaps I&#8217;ve been in or currently in.<\/p>\n<p>Fall Coaster Swap-when I signed up for this swap, I had the perfect fall color fabric in mind as seen <a href=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/2008\/10\/04\/pay-it-forward-fall-theme\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>. The tutorial for this is found <a href=\"http:\/\/fatorangecat.wordpress.com\/2007\/09\/11\/coaster-tutorial\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>. But I did not count on my partner hating the colors orange and brown! DOH! So I had to scramble for another idea and came up with these:<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/reverseappcoasterblog.jpg\" alt=\"reverseappcoasterblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a reverse applique coaster! I was so happy I came up with this idea but wasn&#8217;t sure how much my partner would like it as my seams are not perfect. (She ended up loving it and gave me a 5 rating and a heart!) Whew! Following a line was actually harder than I thought. I tried 2 with the <a href=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/2008\/08\/31\/sew-inspired-ha-freehand\/\" target=\"_blank\">free motion foot<\/a> but found it was easier using the regular foot. Here is what my partner sent me:<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/coasterswaprecdblog.jpg\" alt=\"coasterswaprecdblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nShe spoiled me (she is swappinLady on swap-bot)!! Not only did she make <a href=\"http:\/\/scrapdash.blogspot.com\/2008\/03\/cd-coasters-tutorial.html\" target=\"_blank\">CD coasters<\/a>, she made mug charms and a wine bag (without the wine, I just put something in there to make it stand!) and orange hot chocolate! YUM! That was so nice of her!<\/p>\n<p>I also joined the zipper pouch and candy swap. I won&#8217;t mention who my swap partner is or what candy I sent her as she did not receive it yet. I hadn&#8217;t made one of these pouches in awhile and it was fun! I hope my partner likes it, the swap had a fish theme!<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/pouchcloseupblog.jpg\" alt=\"pouchcloseupblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Close up of fish applique<\/em><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/pouchbackblog.jpg\" alt=\"pouchbackblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>the back<\/em><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/pouchinsideblog.jpg\" alt=\"pouchinsideblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>blurry inside (I love the color!)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am really enjoying getting back into swapping on swap-bot.
