Comment: Anthea, Thank you so much for the AMAZING set of stitched art! So eclectic and adorable, and I think it was wonderful of you to send them framed and ready to hang. This is truly one of the best swaps I have ever received. Thank you so much for participating, and I am thrilled to have had you as a swap partner. (BTW - sorry this response is so late. Your package actually came while I was in the hospital for the birth of our new baby girl. Talk about timing!). Thanks again! -Emily

Comment: Anthea, Wow! The pictures didn't do your handiwork justice! I just love your stitching and your attention to my profile--using my all-time favorite colours and the special surprise on the little one's tummy was the best! Thank you so much for honouring me with these dolls. They are absolutely beautiful. I wish I could give you a hundred hearts! Anytime you want to swap, just let me know--I'd swap with you again in a heartbeat! Thanks again for your beautiful gift to me. blessings, Gypsy
