use what you have swap
Yesterday, I received a really lovely package from Soozs as part of the Use What You Have April materials swap …

I love the faded blues of the Thai fabrics, love the care Sooz took in putting the parcel together with ribbons and card, but most of all, I love Soozs’ generosity in giving me the pattern to one of her softies, a really, really sweet rabbit called Doo Ka Ta. Again, thank you so much Soozs!!!!!
I hope my partner enjoys their bright colours (yes, I like ‘em!) and origami challenge ;D. Can’t reveal where it’s going yet, but they’re really, really lucky they didn’t get a heap of wool…
