Here is JANW's second round. Again I apoligize for the colors, I think I might need a new camera.

That's so pretty JANW!

JANW 09-14-2008 05:17 PM

Mona,
That is just perfect. Is it brown and beige, sometime colors don't come through? Youv'e made a wonderful round, thanks

collettakay 09-14-2008 06:16 PM

Very nice!

ScubaK 09-14-2008 07:04 PM

MGRHS,
I don't think you need a new camera.
If it is digital, you need to look at the "white balance"
This might be of help to you.

Hey, I'm getting ready to send my centers out and wondered..what is the BEST way to send this to London??

JANW 10-13-2008 07:06 AM

Mona, is mine with Barbara now? I'm anxiously awaiting Tricia's square.

I have asked that we hold up sending the early ones on to get back to our published schedules..

the reason for this is twofold..

One, to prevent one getting out of order and
Two, to prevent tops piling up at one location...

While I am happy that some of you are way ahead, we dont want to put undue pressure on the rest of us...

Thanks for understanding

sandpat 10-13-2008 03:13 PM

Mine haven't gone out yet...can you believe that the PO in my little town has NO International envelopes???? Does ANYONE that lives here ever mail anything anywhere other than to the county seat?? :roll: :roll:

Elizabeth A. 10-13-2008 03:15 PM

Sandpat, you can get them online at http://www.USPS.com you just order whatever you think you might want and it arrives within the week.





beachlady 10-13-2008 03:18 PM

SandPat, My PO told me that it is cheaper sometimes to use your own envelope. I mailed something to Shadow recently and used the smaller international envelope and stuffed too much in and used lots of tape and they would not accept it. So I used a manilla envelope and it was $5.00 cheaper to mail. I would ask.

sandpat 10-13-2008 04:09 PM

Thanks ya'll, I know to order them online, but I was gonna just use my own and print my stuff online to get the discount :wink: I'll be getting them out next week so that I'll feel that I've accomplished something.

Hi there, Well I got it :D , today I got Jstitchsīs block and it is just too gorgeous for words. Make you laugh Colin went to the mail box and as he was coming back to the house he started to fold the package and I shouted no donīt do that donīt fold it up any more. He said, explitive, explitive, how the expletive do you think it got in the mailbox then. LOL
I just knew it was the package I had been waiting on.

Col liked it very much and has already been round the house auditioning on the various colours we have in the room, bless. I have hung it up and am contemplating what to do.

Jstitch are there any colours you donīt like???

Elle :D


tlrnhi 11-12-2008 05:44 AM

Wow! It took no time to get to you, huh?
Tell Colin that he needs to be careful when there are squishy packages sent. You never know,,,there could be something alive in it. lol

sandpat 11-12-2008 05:49 AM

Oh no....here we go with the lizards on this thread too! :lol: :lol:

I can't wait to see what ya' go Elle...I bet Colin will be afraid to fold up whatever comes to your mailbox next.

I'm taking a break from waiting by the mailbox for Terri's center since yesterday was a holiday. I'll be back out there today...waiting...for ....lizards I'm afraid!!! :wink: :wink: :lol:

tlrnhi 11-12-2008 05:52 AM

LMAO!!
No, there are no lizards in there...HONEST!!

Butterflyspain 11-12-2008 05:53 AM

Patti, its those darned Toads that are out in Guam they are humungus. LOL

I would get DH to stand by the gate if I were you.

I have a headache at the moment and canīt think straight, so just staring at it.

Elle

tlrnhi 11-12-2008 05:58 AM

Oh no....I have the little ones back in my house again. There was one hopping thru the 2d floor. Tried to catch the little bugger, but he eluded me and escaped! I'll find him! lol

sandpat 11-12-2008 06:13 AM

Your kitties must be the same type of "froggers" that mine are "mousers"...they just look at them and I think they are smiling. Afterall....what do they need those for?? Their dinner bowl is always full. :wink:

Glad to hear I'm not waiting for lizards. :lol:

Oh, the little girl tried to catch it, but failed just like I did.

I'm sure you should get the package in the next day or so

Butterflyspain 11-12-2008 06:32 AM

It's always hot. But for the past few days, we've been getting a nice breeze, so it's about 80 now
