This purple's for you

June Creative Swap in the Making

For the May-June Creative Swap, I crocheted an iPhone/iPod/iTouch jacket (or any other purpose as long as it will fit in) for my swap partner. The body comes in purple, contrasted by a baby pink. The crocheted flower and letter C (first letter of the recipient’s nick) were patched in using a camouflage thread.

I also sent her a postcard showing the primary areas in Abu Dhabi, chocolate dates with almond (the packaging comes ala Hershey’s kisses), bookmarks and cooking stickers.

I remembered that we have the same birth month, hence, I also included in the package a posh crossword puzzle (ala Moleskine) and a shirt which has a print of “Someone who loves me very much went to Dubai* and got me this shirt” as advanced birthday presents.

*Incidentally, there’s no available tee of her size which has an Abu Dhabi print

Please join us in the next round of Creative Swap. You may check the details here or send an email to gandarynako (at) yahoo (dot) com to know more.
