Yes I thought since it is Autumn now that I would change my avatar for now to the little fall mini I made. It seemed appropriate.

ctyankee I still hope you hear from the one you sent too. The others are right, this seldom happens on here. Glad as they said too that you are signing right back up.

Argentium

I owe ctyankee a huge apology. She made me a wonderful needlebook with yoyos and hand stitching and some decorative pins (and it all fits perfectly in my little tin sewing kit I carry around in the off chance I get some free time to make or join a few hexies) and I should have immediately come to the board to gush about it and thank her profusely. Instead I got sidetracked by work and failed to set reminders to make sure I came back here to thank her. So, ctyankee, thank you so much for the needlebook... I love it and it's become part of my regular kit; I did not intend to slight you in the gratitude department like this at all I'm sorry I didn't thank you sooner on your wonderful work.


Likewise, I should have immediately come here and gushed over my cool purple chicken pincushion from Elayne (sorry, didn't see a screenname on the box or the note) that I got over the weekend. I also love the “dim sum” fat qtr you included – I have no idea what to do with it yet but I've had a lot of fun looking it over. My family used to have a small flock of chickens when I was a kid, so this brought a big smile to my face when I pulled it from the box. Thank you so much.


And with that, I'm going to stop attempting swaps completely. I think at this point people are going to dread getting me for a partner – either giving or receiving – and I don't want to cause anymore problems for such a great group of people. Thank you for letting me play. Take care and happy sewing......

Such beautiful pincushions, and needle books.

Argentium what a beautiful purple chicken and pincushion you received. Beautiful beaded pins too. Also nice fabric.
Nice work ctyankee and Elayne.

Nanakathy55 That is a gorgeous pincushion you received from Argentium. Beautiful beaded pins too. The top on the pincushion is a nice touch. More of that yummy looking candy.

Karen the collage you put up is so nice. There really was a bunch this month.

Nana Kathy you got a nice purple pincushion and fancy beaded pins and chocolates from Argentium. It's too bad that you are not going to be in the swaps. You were my swap partner once. You can give it another try.

CTYankee you got a cute purple chicken pc and a really nice needlecase with yoyos from Argentium.

Karen you did a great job on the collage.

Don't forget to give feedback.
