ATC Swap: Love gone wild set #23: Donna Eck, California

Wow, it is like Christmas when I was a kid around here, opening all these wonderful packages of ATCs for our Love Gone Wild Swap. Donna Eck in California sent in some ATCs that are unusual and wild in their own way! look at the back of these . . .

Donna's ATCs are made on a Bingo board that has been cut to ATC size.

I love her "sensibilty" in how she put these together. Thanks, Donna. I so enjoyed receiving and studying these little works of art. Thank you for the special ephemera you enclosed for me too. : 0 )

Three very cool valentine ornaments arrived today from Donna Eck in San Jose, California. Donna created sachets for our swap by recycling old materials, including old prom dresses and recycled bride's maid dresses. I love this idea!! Way-to-go Donna. These heart sachets are so creative!

Fabric Bag Swap - Donna Eck, CA

Oh My goodness! More gorgeous fabric bags keep materializing (no pun intended!) in my mailbox. Wow, I just love the bag that Donna Eck has sent to us from California. The postcards & letters on the bag even bear the San Francisco postmark on them, so cool!! Donna wrote in an email to me, "I took a "Three Hour Tote Bag" class at my local quilt shop and I've been having so much fun with it, putting my on slant on it. This exchange really got me thinking and creating. I do appreciate you hosting these swaps. Can't wait to see everyone else's."
Me either, Donna!
