I just finished a really fun swap with a Mail Art Group I'm a member of. Corinne was the hostess, and she decided to do a cuff bracelet swap. I was a little bit nervous because I've never made a cuff bracelet, and more importantly, I don't sew ~ at all, but I really wanted to try something different.
It turned out to be so much fun. Everyone was paired with a partner, but because there ended up being an uneven number of participants, three of us were grouped together. Corinne was making a bracelet for Cassandra, Cassandra for me, and I was making Corinne's.
I wanted to show the GORGEOUS bracelet I received from Cassandra. I gave her a few ideas of what I liked (colors, etc.), and I couldn't believe how perfectly she transformed them into the perfect cuff for me. I LOVE it!
This is the cuff I made for Corinne. She said she loves pink, girly, elegant ~ I tried to get it all!
And a special thank you to my mom, who spent an entire day explaining what needle and thread were, and how to use them together. (okay, maybe not that bad, but almost.)
Kathy, for not being someone who sews (me either!), you did a beautiful job with this wrist cuff!! Thank heavens for mothers!!!
And the one you received from Cassandra is stunning!

What a neat collaborative project Kathy. You did a great job on your pink girly one and the one made for you is beautiful, very elegant, it seems to tie in perfectly with your blog banner and feel:D

Cute cuffs! I love them both... but there is something about pink & white. So soft & girlie.
I recently made 3 cuffs. Sold one for $18 at a vendor fair this past weekend. Which I was happy about. Money is money, right? Now, if I could sell a couple more before SB, I'll have $$ to spend. LOL hugs, Joanna

Both cuffs are gorgeous, and now I want to make one! Pretty terrific for your first (or almost) attempt with needle and thread. What a nice mom - still teaching her little girl.
