I reveived the Feathered Friends exchange for the SBEBB group today. Cathy (mk) has sent me this pretty exchange:

I love everything of it! Cathy made me a gorgeous pinkeep and absolutly stunning fob. Both with Prairie Schooler designs. And she also made an excellent choice with all the goodies she sent! 2 skeins of VC Silk in different reds, a little scissor to go with the fob, a thread keeper, Piecemaker's needles and pins.

A closer look on the pinkeep.

Look at that fob! Isn't that gorgeous???

And it's even personalized!!!

Cathy, thank you so much for your wonderful exchange!
