Wow there have been a lot of wonderful packages this month. I can't wait until next month. I hope everyone is feeling better. I'm going to try and get started on my son's quilt today. I'm hoping to get all the cutting done at least.

I will look through them first but was wondering if these would be good to pass along with my future package?
Absolutely. How fun. My Mom passes some of her's to me, and some of them are inspirational.

The question is which shores is it heading for? Could it be UK, have not seen many hints for packages heading my way, although I look every day (at least once).

For the stalkers, I sent 2 packages last week--one went South of me and the other left our shores.

That pumpkin fabric is soooo adorable. Do you know who makes it or what the name of the pattern is?
Thanks Kimberly - I'll be hunting that fabric down for my DGKs.

Wow, I'm 25 pages behind in my this thread. Just got home from a weekend away with DH, but now I'm back and can't wait to see more goodie pictures. I really should sign off of the board when I'm not using it so it doesn't constantly say I'm online when I really am not...

Canny, I believe it will cross the English Channel, but they weren't very clear on the route it was taking when I sent it. Is that helpful?

I received a wonderful package from Busy Mom on Friday. Computer would not load message after multiple attempts. Right now is the first opportunity I have had to post the photo.

I received wonderful batik fat quarters that I will use in my flip flop block quilt, pins, notepad, lovely buttons, a kitty head cookie cutter, cat toys for my kitties, a cake tester and two bags of candy.
