    I know a few go to Canada and at least one to Australia. These take time going through customs. Sometimes over a month or more. The one I made is going to one of these destinations and I am trying to be patient but anxious for its arrival.
    Mailed in the first week of April, I expect delivery the first week in May, I hope.

    Hi Guys,

    Everybody except M-Fay has received.... she is normally the last person to get hers as she is so far away! Marion is such a sweetie and she totally understands that her runner has the furthest to travel and that we are all reliant on the postal services.

    I hope you will all be signing up for the next swap... we all seem to have such fun and the runners are amazing!

    Hugs

    Caroline

    Armylady2012 - this topper can be "resized" by changing the width of your strips and/or adding more strips to the set. For example, use 1" strips, sew 5 together to make your strip set. This will be smaller & maybe more delicate depending on fabric choices. I think I will do this one again but in tone on tone ecrus.

    Jab it's usually the customs that are the holdup. Not to worry all is good

    Hi Everyone,

    That's it! All the runners have found their way to their new homes and everyone has received.... you are such a great bunch to have in a swap... all mailing on time and letting me know when you mail and receive!

    So... we can now all look forward to the next swap!

    Hugs

    m-fay your runner is beautiful. Love the colors and the pattern. Ube you did a wonderful job on it and the wavey quilting adds so much to it. All of it is so nice. Thanks Caroline for hosting another fun and wonderful swap.

    So glad you like your package Marion. I save little fussy cuts like the glove and make them into magnets and pins and even plant skewers.

    I used the little bird stencil on a quilt I made several years ago and when I found another one I had to send it along, one of my favorites.

    This has been a very nice swap, thank you every one for sharing. On to the next swap.

    That runner is fabulous. I love the soft colours and the quilting is exquisite.
