Harry Potter Crafters June-July 2010 Summer Swap

I received my swap from Danemum and I love it! It arrived today and its awesome
The red of the yarn is great! and the purple feels so nice. The scarf will come in handy and the little sockettes(?) are so cute! and the Holst has such color to them!

Reducio 11

Yes, the package was my reducio swap from the wonderful [onemilljellybeans](person)

A lovely Hufflepuff sock as well as a cute 4 Privet Drive Ornament :D A citrus soap loaf that I am looking forward to using in a bit and hibiscus tea that has the most wonderful smell to it and tastes delicious. Our German Shepherd and Norfolk Terrier thank you profusely for the owl treats which they partook of since we don't have an owl but a mail bat :D

Thank you so much! It made my day :D

Thanks! I love it! :D

For the last round I was up against Hermione Bagnold and it was a tough battle! My final piece finished was this premie baby blanket which will be sent to The Linus Connection
