What wonderful package.
My secret pals item will not be here until Sunday, so her package will go out on the 18th. It will be worth the wait.
Hope everyone is having a great day. I was blessed to get away with a friend from church for a girl's camping trip. It was very much needed. I love being outdoors.
Have a wonderful day.

The fabrics you sent will fit in beautifully. I love batiks too and have a quilt as you go Hexie quilt in the works. The scissors will be very helpful too because I leave them with all my various projects and I will enjoy the patterns and books. There are so many projects to do!
I live in mid Michigan close to Michigan State and there are many farms in the area. I was a 4-H leader for years and we spent many good times with my kids hanging out with big and small animals.
Thank you for everything! Pat

Hi Pat,
I'm so glad that you like everything. We are also a 4-H family - first with our kids and now the grandsons. The husband and daughter's family raise show pigs and butcher hogs. My contribution is fresh goat milk to raise any little pigs if something happens to their mom and help finish out the butcher hogs. I use it to make soap but have too much for that.
Hugs,
Jennifer

It's Here!
My June swap arrived yesterday from LogCabin82 and what a delightful package to get! (I still don't get the photo thing!)
I got a great package of KONA charm squares in bright solid colors, a Baked Potato Bag with instructions to make more of them, very colorful big buttons, a sewing machine cleaning kit, a spool of gray thread, the cutest little Beetle needle threader. a package of microtex sewing machine needles, and an unknown object which I will ask her about in my thank you. The colors alone were a delight. It is such fun to open these mystery packages!

On its way!
I dropped my package off at the post office this morning. It's on its way west! With the holiday on Monday, I didn't check to see when it will arrive...but surely sometime next week. 
Happy sewing everyone!

I received a fabulous package from Michelle-quilts. She sent an amazing amount of pink flowers for the Lola and Olive wall hanging I will start soon. She sent 2 books I have not yet read and a yarn for making dish scrubbies. The turtle bowl cozie and potholder are gorgeous and to pretty to use. I even got a birthday necklace for next month. Thank you, Michelle.
