OH WOW, you ladies have brought tears to my eyes. Its hard to read and type with tears in my eyes, so please bear with me.
Yes, I have left each of those 3 people over 5 pm's and no responses from any of them.
Thank you all for being gracious in showing your support of my hostessing this swap. Up until yesterday, it was good hosting it. But, it has not deterred me away from hosting another swap or more. As I mentioned earlier, some of you know that I'm planning on hosting another siggy swap around July or maybe closer to the holiday season, any suggestions as to when would be nice. Also, if anyone has any suggestions as to what kind of siggy block to do next time would be wonderful to me. Thanks!
All of you who sent in their 56 blocks are expecting 56 blocks back. I'm not sure how this will play out, it will be interesting to see how it will.
Hey most of you don't know this, but if you do have to make extra blocks, I have an idea. Would all of you mind making 1 block for a MIA quilter and a good friend of mine. She is listed on the activity list under Quiltjax.
She lives in Bangor, North Wales. She left the 2nd week of Feb to visit her daughter and dgd in Australia. right after she arrived, Australia had that country wide flooding. I talked to her on facebook before she left and I noticed her last posting was March 3rd and then nothing. No messages, no pm's, nothing. It never occurred to me to put the 2 pieces together, her and the flood until last night someone suggested of perhaps she has gone on home to be with the Lord. That floored me, it totally shocked me. I never thought of that.
With all that said, if you are going to be adding names to those "missing" blocks, PLEASE, please put QuiltyJax's name and info on one of those blocks.
She was suppose to participate in this swap...
Here is her info as much as I know:
Ueser name: Quiltyjax
Real name: Removed for privacy reasons-
Country: Bangor, North Wales
Other info: Siggy swap, 2011
Davidwent, one of the swappers for the siggy swap sent his to me 2 weeks ago and somehow they never came back to me. I pm'd him this morning if he can send me his white block with his info on it, i can cut out the other 2 blocks and sew them up for him.
Im suppose to mail them by the 1st, and if all goes as planned on my part at least, I will have them still mailed to you by the 1st, as planned.
Oh by the way, when the swap reg. was closed, a wonderful lady wanted to join up even as an alternative, I guess God does know what He's doing, I invited her to take Quiltyjax's place, since Quiltyjax is MIA in Au.
Again, thank you ladies for your wonderful understanding and making that extra block for Quiltyjax.
