I have been taking part in a craft swap through the Cloth Nappy Addicts forum that I am a member of. Each person is given the name of someone else for whom they have to handmake something - it can be absolutely anything - though you are given a price limit, their likes and dislikes, ages of children etc to help you choose something appropriate. Your name is given to someone else and so it goes on, it's all anonymous at first but now most gifts have been received the guessing has begun!
The little boy I made something for loves orca whales, so I searched out this fabric and made these board shorts and appliqued t-shirt for him:

Unfortunately due to the postal strikes here our parcel is yet to arrive, I'm really looking forward to seeing what our swappee has made and will post pics as soon as I can!
