So I guess its just you and me. I have heard from my partner and she asked for may address again so I am hopeful. I assume you have tried to contact her. Would you like us to give it a try?

I've messaged her without success. She has been contributing to her web pages, so it's not as if she has been out of action. I'm just putting it down to experience! Thanks anyway, and I hope you get yours.

Unfortunately not. I was rushing to get them in the post before I went on holiday. However, there was a shibori dyed habotai scarf. Similar to the top one on this photo, but dyed with my natural Pomegranate dye, which yields a yellowy green. www.flickr.com/photos/koffipot/10604758005/The original Xmas card:- www.flickr.com/photos/koffipot/8363220011/Also some dyed and natural scrim, pieces of dyed silk voile, mulberry bark fibre, some silk and woven copper wire fabric, a fabric pieced tree ornament resembling a pine cone, and a couple of those thick cylidrical carrier rods. Obviously not well received!!

I can't imagine someone not liking your gift. I really like the card. and the shibori died scarf would be great. I always like to get bits and bobs to work with. Maybe I will be lucky and get you next year.

Those are lovely gifts Judith. It's a shame you've not heard back from her. Even if she didn't care for them, it would be nice to acknowledge them.

Mine arrived yesterday. I will take a picture of it later. Unfortunately there was an address mix up and mine was returned to me at the same time. I now have the correct address and will ship them out again.

Email worked best for me to get in touch with my exchange partner. I think people miss the message part at the top. Here is the gift I received. it is a very nice nuno scarf that is wide enough to use as a wrap. It has some nice ripples in the middle back.
