TwinRiver - I am so sorry for the delay in shipping your box :( For too many reasons (an illness that will not leave, working full-time, son's basketball schedule, and the snow/frigid cold not stopping), I am a little behind this month. My plan is to get it to the post office today and get it mailed out, but I will send you a PM with tracking to confirm after I actually make it to the post office. Thanks for being so patient.

Don't let it stress you, JD65, I have faith in you, and life can really throw curveballs at us all. Breathe, take care of yourself, then the family stuff. And hey, we all need to work so we can buy more fabric to play with, right? So your priorities are in the right order!

After mailing my swap partner's box, I found things I had set aside for her right after getting her name. I went to a retreat this month & fabric I had for my retreat project landed on top of my swap stuff, so she will be getting a 2nd box. Today I received my box from KatsKidinWI & what awesome stuff! LOTS of great fabrics (I took pics, but have to see if I can figure out how to post them)

I received JustDucky65's box today, and I think the poor girl read the title of this swap wrong - there is NO trash in this box, only treasures! 2 lovely pattern/kits, many pieces of just wonderful fabric, even some great scraps for my prized 2 1/2" square collections. And to get it on a work snow-day made it even more fun for me. This really has become my favorite swap on the QB, and it is amazing how many times I am using swap fabrics to finally complete UFOs. Thank you all so much.

I'm so glad I participated in this swap....it's like Christmas all over again! My partner, KatsKidinWi, was awesome. She sent me everything on my wish list (plus extras)....kid's prints, flannel, batiks & hand-dyes, Christmas, patriotic prints, black/white, etc. I really like the cow & 'Wisconsin' fabrics because my grandparents owned a dairy farm in WI when they were alive. Thanks Stacy......you rock!!!

Glad everyone is happy with their boxes! Still a few last minute send outs- no worries.. but we still expect you to post pictures of all your goodies! :)

Anyone interested in doing this again in a couple months?

CountryCat 02-06-2014 10:35 PM

I'm willing to sign up again. This was fun & I was matched up with a super new friend! BTW-I'll try to get pictures posted as soon as I have a little more time (Is there such a thing?) & I figure out the process. :confused:

TwinRiverFarm 02-07-2014 03:07 AM

I will definitely sign up again. Thank you for hosting!

paulswalia 02-07-2014 05:01 AM

Me too......it's amazing how it feels to get rid of stuff that I really don't want but find place in my heart (and my room) for someone else's "what was I thinking" treasures.

I received a most awesome box stuffed to the gills from Ginger (bullock2us) and I just loved everything she stuffed in there. I still have to take some pics but I will get it done over the weekend. Thank you so much Ginger for adding to my stash with such great fabrics.
