Pay It Forward, Part 2

It was in November 2007, a few days after Victoria's birthday, when I found her blog. I liked it immediately, and still today I enjoy reading her posts. One of her posts was about Pay It Forward, an exchange of something homemade. I left a comment and a couple of days before last Christmas I received something that she made especially for me. Something to keep my memories and stamps in. She added some nice goodies into the pack, I really like yellow letterpress cards and matching envelopes. The fabric is gorgeous and that card that she sent with the package is standing right there where I can see and read it everyday. Thank you Victoria, my dear friend! :) You made my day again. The PIF rules say that you have to make the same promise on your blog, that you will make something homemade within one year for the first three persons who leave a comment on that post. As there was only Victoria who left a comment at that time, I open this game again, for only two of you.

If there is anyone out there who would like to receive something homemade from me and of course, pay it forward, leave a comment. Give me a hint, if there is something I created and you really liked it. Though, I will not make any dreamcatchers again. I made only two in my life and both were for very special people.

So, here are the rules and here you can check what I made for Victoria and her girls. I don't dare to mention how many times I had to unstitch the stiches or how much time I spent making those presents. But I think it was well worth it! :)

Pay It Forward

Two days ago I was browsing through some blogs and quite by coincidence came upon 13mimosa blog. You know, when I see that someone is celebrating a birthday, I cannot resist to give my congratulations. And I read on. I came upon Pay It Forward post and immediatelly decided to join in and share something handmade by me with the readers of my blog (which are not so many, right? :)).

If there is someone out there who would like to join this exchange, here are the rules:

  1. You leave a comment here on my blog and request to join the Pay It Forward exchange.
  2. The first three comments who agree to join will receive a handmade gift from me (a surprise of course) within 365 days.
  3. You return the Pay It Forward by making the same promise on your blog.

This should be fun!
