Wow It's been like Christmas in my house, this month I had two pals...
And I recieved my second package today...
a big thank you to reeskylr for a great package, she sent me a pair of pinking shears( something on my want list) and a blue mason jar filled with buttons ( both of them I collect) and best of all the jar is a number #3 and I don't have one , she also sent me lots of fabric, thread , lace, beads and buttons of all shape ands and sizes... I am one happy gal.

I'm glad you like it Wanda Lou!! I had all those white buttons from that estate sale and since I don't do much with white, I figured you would with your crazy quilts. I know nothing about those jars, a friend was thinking one time to collect because they are supposed to be worth money, but apparently not. lol I hope the tiny white on white is tiny enough too. Have a great day!

The blue ones do hold value, the last one I bought I paid 10.00 for it, I am still looking for a number 13 those are hard to find, because in the alcohol making days they broke them into pieces, they thought they were bad luck... but one of these days I will find one.
I am so happy with my package... thank you so much.

SP HINTS:
My SP seems to be fairly new at this swap.
I haven't really seen any posts on here from them except maybe to say they were in for the swap.
Zip adds up to 19 in normal math, not krystyna's.
Has not even been a member of this QB for a year yet.
Does not have any pets.
New to quilting.
Has 3 vowels and 3 consonants in their name.
Lives south of me.

That is all! Will get pkg early next week and is a medium flat rate box!

Krystyna

No. Sad to say, they are NOT paying replacement value at all. So far I've gotten about $70,000. About $15,000 went for the rip out demolition. Not the demolition of the house. The bank has the rest of it. Each engineer will be about $5,000. The lawyer is getting a LOT that he didn't earn. The money is flying out the door at a mind boggling pace with nothing to show for it. I got $6100 for a new roof and new garage door and roof. Maybe I could get them made out of cardboard at that price. Not even going to talk about the contents settlements. The bottom line is you have to fight for every last penny.

Lori Peercy

Sorry Krystyna. I will be gone all day today going to Des Moines. Taking Marty to John Stoddard Cancer Center for appt. Talk to you when I get back. Lori

I don't think I will get my package today...LOL first major snow in Michigan this year so can't complain...DH is getting ready to move it all...will take him all day...

Krystyna

Lori, what an adorable little girl! How could you bear to leave her?

Jill, I don't care for centipedes either. Stink bugs? Hmmm ... I'll have to rethink the south! A friend of ours lives in Stone Mountain, GA and my sister-in-law is in Smyrna, TN. Both love where they are. But then I used to love where I was/am. As long as my son is willing to relocate, I'm good.

Now to figure out the important things - is there a Joann nearby? A church? Decent health care? A low cost exterminator/trapper -- just in case there are unpleasant critters!

SP, hoping to make something for you today before the power goes out.

Everyone in Nemo's path -- be careful! Stay warm!

Linda, how beautiful!
