My cats are home. They arrived today. Has anyone seen the journal that went with it? It did not make it home. Don't know really how far it went with the quilt, but if I could, I'd like to get it back. Thanks everyone for working on this. Hope all the other quilts make it to their proper homes. It may be a bit before I get to finish the quilt, but I'll sure post a picture when it's done.

I know it was mailed when I sent it Vanogay.

Any one have any luck with contacting Girlscouts1?

No, unfortunately not. I have tried several things. I have PM'd her numerous times, sent her a registered letter via USPS (which she did receive) and gotten the coordinator of this exchange involved to try and contact her. Nothing has worked. In my PMs and my letter, I have asked her to send me the quilt tops regardless of their state and I would finish them. Again no response. I feel just awful for you and Cuppy. I'm out of ideas to encourage a response. Anyone else have any?

Been following thread for inspiration....in regards to girlscout1! In boom 9 Indian group, she posted on 5/30 that her husband was laid off, that she was retuning to work, that she is behind on her swap obligations and not going to be able to meet her obligations on time. Also stated she is withdrawing from future swaps. She has not posted since. I wish you guys luck in getting your tops back. Maybe offer to pay postage for thier return. Sounds like they are having financial difficulty....

Alikat110, thanks for your info. I saw that post as well. I was just hoping that maybe I could get n touch with her through snail mail. Hoping to let her know that these folks were waiting for their tops. I'm very familiar with unexpected things changing your life and can sympathize. But, we do need to try and get these tops back. Maybe offering to pay for postage will help. The only thing we need is a response to the attempts to contact. I feel awful that these may be lost. We'll just have to keep trying.

Thanks again :)

Me, too. Hope yiu guys get them soon....it may be difficult foe her to admit she needs help. I've been there!

Only thing is there no way we know she will send the tops back even if we paid for the postage. They were insured is there anything we can do with that? I so wanted my top back even if I had to finish it myself. You know she could at least let us know what she wants us to do about our tops. This is so unfair! :-(

Hey everyone! Good news, I have my primitive angels top back girlscount1 had done some work on it and the angels are awesome. I also have the beach theme top, my question is do you want me to send it to you or do you want me to make the row for it. I have it also, I'm still having to wait to sew because my mother and I are having to move stuff around to work on the sewing room and between me and mom being sick a lot it's hard getting it back together if you don't mind waiting until we get my sewing room setup I don't mind working on the beach theme. I guess I could set my sewing machine up in my RV and work on it but there not much room. Let me know what you would like me to do. I just so happy to get them. So Girlscout1 thank you for what you were able to do with the top I love your little angels you made for it. And for the rest that work on my top thank you as well it looks lovely. Ok will be waiting to hear what you want me to do with the beach theme top...Donna

Oh Donna that's wonderful news!!! I think it will be up to Cuppy what she wants you to do with her top. Let's give her a couple days to think on it and I'm sure she'll get back with us. I'm sorry yours wasn't more complete but you have it back and that;s definitely reason to celebrate.
