Yesterday I received a lovely package in the mail - it was my EB potholder swap! Five colourful potholders made by some talented ladies - thank you!!
There is divided opinion in the house as to which one is the best - we all have different favourites. Both Samantha and Asha love the crazy house potholder (they each think it's a picture of themselves in the house). But Samantha also loves the purple heart potholder, while Asha is a firm fan of the chocolate and pink bird potholder. Pete likes the colourful scrappy potholder (I think it's the bold colours) but he is also impressed with crazy house. And I have to admit, I can't pick a winner. I keep changing my mind!
I won't delay, I will post up the pics straight away for everyone to see.

The family voted and the crazy house potholder will hang as a feature in the kitchen in our new home (if/when it gets built) so I'll be putting it away for a little while so it doesn't get dirty. Asha has already managed to get one of the potholders a little grubby, so I can see they will be well loved. Thanks again ladies.
And many thanks to Rebecca for organising the swap, for being so patient and for including a treat in our packages! You're awesome. :)
(Stumbled upon your blog from your EB sig). That chocolate and pink pot holder is gorgeous!
