I finally finished the canes I was making for a petal and leaf cane swap that I signed up for on Polymer Clay Central.  Now all I have to do is mail them out.  I plan on doing that later this week.

I ended up making three sets of petals and leafs.  I signed up for two groups but mentioned that I would be willing to fill spots of needed.  The swap mistress e-mailed me asking if I would be willing to make a third set.  I said “Sure”.  I will be getting a total of 15 sets of petals and leafs.  (Each group has five people in them, so each one will get one of my sets and I will get one of theirs.)  I can’t wait to get them.  I know that I have to wait.  The official deadline is not until the first of June.

I did save some of each of the canes for me.  I have two barrettes in the works, each with flowers from two of the petals.  I will show pictures of them after the swap is totally done.  I don’t want to ruin the surprise for anyone in the swap.

My other concern is that everyone likes my canes.  I am so insecure about the quality of my own work!
