I did my first piece of lacework for this swap. And I made a bunch of mistakes but I am happy with it and I'm planning on making this goddess shawl for myself! In these pictures its all pinned up for blocking. That's why its a bit distorted.
(I need to work on my blocking skills....)

I also made a hematite pendulum and a Beltane themed goddess stuffie. I enclosed some beads and a Arachne card.
And here is what I received from my fabulous partner! She made me an altar kit since I am new to paganism and still finding my path...
She embroidered the altar cloth herself!
I have the altar all set up on a dresser top awaiting use :)
On another swappy note, I sent out my frugal swap package today. I filled it with lots of homemade frugal goodies.

I am totally envious of that shawl. So incredibly beautiful.
I'm always up for a personal swap... ;)
*Cough* I have a spot reserved for Personal swap! hehe!
I've never been used to use a shall, but I'm sure you'll find something else as equally fantastic to knit for me! hehehe. Oh, and I want a goddess plush too. In Water colors please!
