Took this quickly before heading out with my mom who is visiting this week.

This took my breath away. It was such a boost on a difficult day. Thank you Brenda K. I am having some people over on Thursday to meet my mom and I will enjoy using these decorations. Loved the old quilter’s magazine. I miss those ones.

Oh no! You have had such a huge run of bad luck, I’m so sorry to hear.

it is discouraging when your secret pal doesn’t acknowledge the package you sent. And you send such fantastic packages too! I always look forward to seeing what you’ve sent. Love your clues too.

Thank you for all you do to keep this swap going for us.

The secret apl package I sent was delivered Tuesday last week and I have heard nothing.

I received my package all the way from across the pond. It was half way open on one side but I hope everything is in it and it looks like it might be as it was full. I plan to take a picture tomorrow and post. I do not know who it is from as there is no note and it does not say on the outside of the envelop. I just want my partner to know that the amazing package she send arived and I love everything. I plan to post more tomorrow as I have not had a chance to sit and look at everything and take a picture. Thank you again!

Hi Anna,

It was from me.... I forgot to put the note in.... I found it on the side when I got home from the post office. I hope you like everything.

Hugs

Caroline

Look at all the goodies I received from Caroline. She really made an effort to send me goodies that were on my list and I received a whopping 9 FQ of Patriotic/ Americana muted fabrics. Thread, clips, wooden buttons, lotion, a quilt book and needles to go with it to get me on my way. Look at the cute charm she made from a spool and the lavendar sachet. Thank you again Caroline.

Hi Anna,

So glad you like what I sent.... sadly not everything arrived.... there was another reel of Aurifil and a bird christmas ornament. I will make another and pick up some more Aurifil ready for the next time that I get you as my partner.

As for the Lavender..... yes, it grows in our garden although I cannot take credit for it as DH is the gardener... I just harvest, dry and shuck it!

Hugs

Caroline

Hi Everyone,

I received a wonderful package from Deboarah..... I always know it is from her, even before I see it as my Westie goes mad jumping around when I get a package from Deborah as she always send Chloe something, which makes for one happy doggie!

Deborah, you are always a thoughtful and generous swap partner..... and my friend - thank you!

Hugs

Caroline
