November Secret Pal Sign Up Closed

Hi Ladies!
I just had to share with you the sweetest surprise that ArizonaGirl (Robyn) sent me. I was absolutely floored by her thoughtfulness. It's a big dress form pin cushion with a veil!!! What a sweetie! (Yeah, I know. I have to dust my lamps!)
And just to let you know that nothing around here has changed, I've attached a photo of a tea towel I was stitching out. I was using my handy dandy seam ripper and Riiiiippppp! Right through the towel! Sort of appropriate design, no?

I have been frustrated with not being tell which posts I had already read and ending up re-reading them again and not being able to see the most resent posts first. Well I was up in the middle of the night last night and while on the board I searched the help threads and learned how to get the most recent first and tell which had already been read. Go to the bottom of any page and next to the contact us is archive. Click on that and it will give you a list of sections to choose from. It will look different this way, but the read topics will be purple and the unread topics will be blue. I am now a very happy girl as I will now be able to see the threads that I want to see and not the same old ones over and over. I hope this help others who have been having the same

Since I am limited to the same number of private messages as everyone else I can not spare the room to send pm's to everyone asking if they have mailed their nov packages. I would appreciate it if you are on this list to please contact me and tell me if you have mailed as per the rules, this is not meant as a wall of shame but is much needed information. If you have mailed and let me know already please resend a pm as I do not show you as having mailed. Thank you. aussie croydon/ brenda21/ chrys/ Clover Patch/ girlscounts1/ hearthhush/ judy-Fla/ liza63/ maggie/ Qwilty Lady/ sewnmom/ starofmoondancer/

I got a great package from quiltin'gran and am going to list everything as I don't know if my picture will show up. First of all, a great card that shows the phases of the moon, book called Emma's Secret which I haven't read yet, big bag of Werthers and a bag of Hershey almond kisses (almost gone), note pad, playing cards in the shape of gingerbread men, needlethreaders, two quilt pattens, a spool of sparkly green ribbon and a spool of red rickrack ribbon, a box of green tea bags, 5 pieces of batik fabric and 7 pieces of solids and prints. Last but not least a homemade tissue holder (really nice!) for my purse. Thanks, Suzanne, from another Suzanne. I love it all!

So sorry to hear about your job loss, I hope you are able to find alternative work soon
I have tried to navigate this board for hours and days and I still have problems with it. I can't find where I left off in the previous session. I have trouble figuring out what I have read and what I have not read. Now that I said my piece, the happy news, I received my package today. From Lillie, but I do not know her board name. She sent a wonderful package. I thank her. I will try to take a picture and see what happens. I lost my job also. So, I was very happy to get my package in the mail.
