    You guys are so very sweet. Thanks. I am over it. it is what it is and I cant stop others from spreading lies or from talking smack about me so why bother? they are entitled to their own opinions I just wanted it plain and clear I do this for the love of doing it nothing more. I am sorry again if I brought up my health issues ever. obviously its a bad plan. it is however just me. I am who I am. I do things that I chose to do and I am sad to say that I wont be doing this swap from next month forward. I do have Jclinganrey who has said she would take it over and she does a great job of running swaps. That along with Jaba's help I am sure that things will run smoothly from here on forward. I will post every so often to see how your doing but will be in my other swap the mug rug swap if you want to come chat even if you don't want to play we would love to see you! I still have this month to finish up my responsibilities so don't worry I wont run off yet. I want all of you to have a good time when your on this board and to think about the good things in life. Its going to be fine.

    ok onto the good things in life. Our dear friend Lynnie brought up to me in a short email how she went to two different michaels yesterday. that is like hobby lobby to those who don't have a Michaels near them. It brought to mine what I always looked for when I was there. GLITTER. I love glitter. on everything. so much I bought a 30 piece set of Martha Stewart glitter. it has glitter in every color in there. for every holiday and well.. everything I own. each time I put out a season of stuff ie easter right now.. I end up sparkling for a few days. my hair, my nose lol and my arms. tada! glitter queen! so now you now. When I am not playing with fabric I play with glitter. and it shows

    Crazy!!! Who ever makes bad comments about some one donating their time and effort for us to enjoy a swap with people is just crazy. I bet they would not want to be in charge of it either. They would not be able to handle it.
    Elisabrat does a wonderful job. We all enjoy her. Just needed to voice my opinion.

    Kiffie, I got your package of Easter fabrics (and the envelope of ocean waves & sand) yesterday! I had a crazy busy day today, but will take and post pictures in the morning. I just love them all and appreciate your swapping with me. I will try and get to the PO tomorrow to mail your swap (and SheriR's). I have had them and my PC/NC swap packed up and ready to go for days now.

    I've been trying to get my 3 Civil Air Patrol cadets off for a weekend event and things went all chaotic on me!

    Happy to know another of my pkgs made it...after the post office lost one, poor lil pkgs is somewhere, lost and forlorn to this day, I suppose...
    And another of my pkgs taking 3 weeks to go a few states over, I'm always a lil wary...

    Um, I must confess, Patches...after your pkg and envelope were headed your way, I found a square of fabric covered in seashells...yep, it should've been in with your ocean and sand-like fabrics..
    I don't know why my hubby goes behind me and messes up stuff (riiight....lol).
    Okay, I forgot it. Yes, me...Kif...I forgot it! One saving grace is, the seashells are very large across it, like 2-3" seashells..so I'm telling myself they wouldn't have worked very well for your project..right??

    Here's a pic of the 1 that hubby took out the envelope when I wasn't looking ,
    And one I just found, though I looked everywhere for it too, before I sent your pkg. I bet my scoundrel hubby hid it, too!
    If either will work, let me know.

    Good golly Miz Molly....I go away for a couple of days and without my laptop and it seems the you know what has hit thefan again. Who in their right mind would, first, would ever criticize any of the swap hostesses of having ulterior motives for running a swap, let alone someone like Brat. I don't know exactly what the email to Brat said, was so disgusted with what little I did read on the thread, I just gave up and had to stick in my two cents.

    Whoever you are that is being hateful - GET A LIFE!!! If you're not happy here - leave, no one will stop you.. Swapping is a voluntary thing, we're not forced to join in, and those of us that do, do it because we enjoy it and enjoy making new friends.

    Now I said my piece and will shut up! Thank you all for listening

    LOL Kiffie, you are a hoot.

    Don't be too upset at hubby, I am just fine with what you sent to me. I also ordered a bit of fabric that will go well with yours and it's all good. No worries. Tell your DH he can come out of hiding now. I have all I need!
