Hello September birthday girls! Finally, our month is here! TPR9258, I mailed your candies last week (I think it was Tuesday, August 25th). Please let me know if you received it yet....I'm hoping it arrives in time for your birthday TOMORROW! ! ! And, I hope you have a Great Day tomorrow!
I mailed the rest of the September birthday babies' candies today and the USPS estimated you'd all get them Friday (9/4)......so trish b, lv2sew2011, michellesews, WMUTeach, PeginCo and quilterJody.....be on the look-out for them.
I came back from vacation yesterday and was surprised to have some candies for my birthday in the mailbox. I will definitely wait until my day, but wanted to let you all know that I've received your candies safe and sound from:
Michellesews, n10sgrrl, bjsmith57, Rosemary Attaway, anoka quilter, maT, sewbizgirl, lv2sew2011, jaba, Patrick's Mom, and letsquilt. I also received from Broken Arrow OK (I think this is djmat ?) and another one from Platte City, MO (doesn't have a QB Name, so I'd better not try to guess)......if you know it's you, please let me know.
This has been such fun so far...I can hardly wait to open the candies! ! ! Happy September birthdays!

Hello ladies...
I am so sorry that I have not been on the board for over a week. I have been very busy...and every night before I would go to bed I would think "Oh I forgot to check the board". No excuses...just tired and busy.
So....I am glad that you all stepped up and help one another when addresses were changed and wrong (state..hope zip helped).
Lv2sew2011..looks like you are getting your packages...that's good!
If anyone has moved PLEASE make sure you let me know...even if you birthday has passed. I never would have thought to ask before posting an address if anyone has moved. Since this is a year long swap...a lot can happen.
Karen in Platte City MO is..happylab
Donna in Ok is ....lv2sew2011
Broken Arrow is... Djmat
Moonrise...hope you are feeling better.
Tpr9258 thanks for sharing the quilts.
WMUteach...thought it looked familiar! Thanks for sharing the pattern. I love that quilt and on my "to do" list
Sewbizgirl...thanks for sharing the steps to posting pictures. it is post # 1205 if anyone want to give it a try.
MaT...not sure why you were taken off of the thread...I don't know how to "get on" the thread
Sewbizgirl...your quilt is lovely love the quilting that you did. And it is "SEW" nice of you to give it away. I would have a hard time giving it away too. I have given away the 2 quilts I have made from these squares...next one I am keeping it.
YEAHHHHHHH ...travelinggramma received ALL of her packages on time! You ladies ROCK...so like promised I am giving away 2 prizes for the contest that is posted above.
i am now going to get caught up on my PM now.
Again I am sorry that I have been away...not use to working everyday and am exhausted.
