I started bringing my Mom the Sunday paper whenever we traveled out of state. She always enjoyed them so much. Once in the Chicago airport I was stopped to have the Sunday paper I had just bought, frisked. They were looking for a gun. How embarrassing, but it was all worth it. Their paper's are huge!!

Yes, you are so right. I didn't include my fat quarters in the $20. I wasn't clear there. I have bought a couple of "goodies" that were. So sorry for the misunderstanding.

Question...My gift to my santaee comes in two parts, not heavy but still does not fit in even the large box. It is not that big of a deal but I think that I have to mail it in a separete enveloupe. I'm thinking of writing SS on both with a 1 of 2 and 2 of2. Any thoughts on this?
Also, as I understand it, the FQ's are not included in the money portion of your ss gift.
Good morning everyone, have a great day!

Oh my, that's almost a heart stopper. I adore fat quarters. Isn't most fabric manufactured in Europe? It's terrible the price you pay for fabric. I don't believe there is a fabric manufacturer left in the U.S. I will have to do a little research on this. Or anyone, feel free to chime in if you so desire.

The guide lines mention 4 FQ and a gift(s) not to exceed $20 . I am sure the gift can be all fabric. I use the discount coupons at Joann's, Michaels, and Holly Lobby, also I buy on sale . I like the idea sending the local newspaper, great idea. Love those great ideas.

Need one more shopping trip to complete my box- all handmade items done, and a bunch of little gee-gags. Now for the serious quilting item/s and FQ. Been working on stuff and picking up things all year long! Hint: my santee lives South of me---so if you are South of the North Pole, you are in the running~~
