Linked with a Ford ... or a Fjord?
I think it is going to Quiltymom. She likes Fords and Fjords, too.

Mine is gone. I don't know where it went.
Could be anywhere.

Ok I put my name in for August Sp & I read that we are to keep a $10 limit...but just seen pic's of a Sp who recieved a lot of stuff...looks to me a bunch more then $10 worth. Now I am wondering if what I planned on mailing is not enough...oh my! I don't want to disappoint my SP. This is my first time doing this..now don't know what to send!

Here we go again ...

Quick Tips:
1. Use coupons
2. Add from your stash
3. Include homemade items (we love 'em)
4. Add gently used books, magazines, templates
5. Remember, the $10 is what you spend ... not the value of everything you put into the package.

I about to admit something: I haven't purchased anything for my SP for the last 2 months - everything I've sent, I had here at the house already. It was just lucky that their likes coincided with mine.

But I've also been working to build up my stash of things to send - I watch the clearance lanes at Target and the dollar bins, too. And I also have a tendency to buy multiples of things and then only open one of them (pins, paper templates, notebooks) so I've been able to pull from those.

But I fully agree about the hand-made items. I try to match the intent & fabric with their likes so that it's personalized to them.
