yes we do have note pads and nail files but not ones that are related to quilting or sewing. These past times are not so big over here and so we don't have lots of the cute quilting related things that you do.

But actually I am sure I speak for all internationals when I say I really love opening my package each month because even if I can get the things here someone has chosen them specially for me.

now remember.. this is a just in case scenario....

just in case I have one this month, or next month.. or the next month.

it is something along the genre of what you noted you liked and i like this particular genre very much and this one in the genre specifically so i hope that i get to send it to you with your package or i will just sub with something else. either way i will have your firmie in the mail by deadline day.

hint to my secret pal number #1:
My firmie is flying over the ocean
My firmie is flying over the sea
My firmie is flying over the ocean
Oh, deliver my firmie to me SP


i hope you find enjoyment and some use in the contents of your destination bound firmie.
