    Wow, there are so many happy dances going on here that I am sure that I can feel the world rocking, perhaps not at this time of your morning - it's mid afternoon here.

    The parcels this month so far have been awesome. Each month they seem to get better and better but we do have to stay in that $10 limit, except for the stuff from our own cache. I love this and have been spending some precious studying time on organising the July one :oops: Please don't let DH know!

    I hope that those of you on the bench have a great huddle and your firmies or squishies arrive soon. Mine should be arriving with my SP in 2 - 7 days depending on how long the British and US mails take to talk to each other.

    So happy you liked it. I had no idea what I was doing, but I guess I did ok. Sorry I didn't send any candy. Forgot to buy it when I was in town, and didn't have time to go back :( I hope you have your own stash to keep your blood sugar up while sewing ;)

    Good Afternoon to all! I am on the bench with everyone but I'm sewing this afternoon so will have to see you all this evening! What to bring???? Something yummy! Hope the mailman brings me something on Monday...work a 12 hour day so it would be a great surprise to come home to! Hope everyone is having a great Father's Day weekend. Sending a big thank you to all Father's out there....where we would be without you?? Love to my Father and Husband two very special men in my life - I would be very lost without them.

    So if my Secret Pal out there that has sent me something and wondering if I have received it yet or not. :( I haven't ... but sure it is waiting for me when the mail resumes.
    That just sucks for you guys :( Tell those postal folks to put the packages in a cold spot in case it has chocolate!

    Here is hoping it is over soon. :?

    I am sure your's is not lame and your sp will like it just fine! Remember newbies that even experienced sewers need the basic supplies, blades go dull, bobbins get lost (here anyway) scissors play hide and seek, seam rippers fall into the back of the chair or the sofa!
    Yeah that is true!!!!!

    Juli do you want the fabric that actually says "it's a boy" on it? or do you want the fabric line that is called it's a boy thing? I can look for you the next time I go to town and let you know. Our Joann's had the one with the lettering on it but that was awhile back. I am not sure they still do. You might try their online store and see if they carry it there. Good luck. crafty_linda_b
