2011 Crochet Potholder Swap...Received!

Amongst the pile of boxes by the front door today, these lovelies arrived! (don't get excited over the boxes..only 1 had a skein or two of yarn and Malabrigo Book 3 :) (Lots I want to knit in there!)  The others were stuff for moving...
It's always exciting to see what ones you'll end up with after seeing everyone's FO's in the thread.
My 5 Potholders from 2011 Crochet Potholder swap


How intricate or a lot of crocheting in this one!
Stained Glass Potholder
What's kinda funny is I copied her little tag idea...funny I got one of hers!

I really love this pattern, simple but the different colors make it :)
Love the colors!

Good thing Cristi doesn't live too close...um..er..she might want this one ;)
Close up :)

This one is a neat construction, you add the edging after.
So cool!

Neat design here too :)
Close up 2 :)

No one has received mine that I know of yet. I love mine and will pack them away with last years to decorate my new home..um..er..now where is the box I put them in?????

They are all beautiful, but the Stained Glass one is awesome. Glad they will be brightening up your new home.

Ooo! Love them all! I wonder which one will become the most heavily used (or am I the only one that favors some potholders over others?)

It's amazing how clever and talented some people are! I love them all :-)

Seeing all these potholders, on your site and Ravelry have inspired me to take up crochet. Hopefully by summer's end, I will be making these as well.

April 27, huh?
Those potholders are awesome. Love 'em. All those happy colors make work around the house so much easier.

Oh and I thought these were what YOU were making for the swap. Oops. Got confuzzled for a bit. But they are lovely. That stained glass one is calling to me. I've already bookmarked the pattern so it's just a matter of getting a chance to hit up the store for some cotton. I could sure use some new potholders.
