Right from the get go I knew I had been matched with someone very special. My Gifter (who I know know to be "mamanna") wrote me immediately to tell me a little about herself and how excited she was about this exchange - it was obvious this was someone who enjoys the giving part of exchanges quite as much as I do, and she was very pleased to hear how much I love handmade things.

If she is anything like me, she will be on the very edge of her chair right now, hoping the recipient liked her present, so let us get that out of the way immediately: I LOVE IT! And I am so very grateful. MY concern now is that I won't do your awesomeness justice with my photos and narrative. But I'll try.
