Thanks to Nancy in Louisiana for my package this month. Beautiful Autumn panel and orange fabric, lots of springtime gardening items, a folded fabric booklet that I'm VERY excited about, gummies to eat and much more.

Wow...awesome package heronfan!

It just occurred to me that I have not received any messages from the SP swap all month. Then I realized I never subscribed to the thread.

With that said my SP package is being mailed out today. Here are a few hints for my pal:
You live west of me.
I use to live in this state in my 20's
You have a cat

Happy swapping everyone.

vovoa 04-15-2016 12:09 PM

Thank You SP!

I received a lovely package from MarionsQuilts today. She sent me a lovely piece to finish (she did the hard part!) because I indicated that I am up for projects, many fabrics (music-themed and blue), a wonderful pattern, and a sweet card!

Thank you so much for making my day!

I received a package from Quilty Louise! I will post a photo tonight from my iPad, I have to let it charge up.
Thank you so much Louise! I love everything! Yellow is my new favorite color. I am already using that tiny thread picker. You are right it is SHARP! Just exactly what I needed.

Quilty-Louise 04-16-2016 07:30 AM

I am so glad you like what I sent. Those are my #1 seam rippers.

Speaking of that it is time for me to order more.

I received a lovely package from JuanitaBean. She sent me a tote on wheels, and another tote. I love bags! But it is awesome as I am going to Paducah this week. Will sure come in handy. She sent me lovely heart blocks, and 2 patterns, one pattern uses a jelly roll, and I have one of those sitting in my closet and I had not known what I was going to do with it. Well that mystery is solved. I can't post pics for you to drool over as my camera and this site hate each other. Which is hard to believe since I love it. Thank you again JuanitaBean!

catjo 04-16-2016 12:41 PM

Marion, You had me figured out. lol Glad you like everything. Plus those I am so glad to get rid of paper piecing book and pattern. That is one area of quilting I just don't like. I think if I had a tudor that might make a difference, but I have tried and it just isn't my thing. lol I got me a set of the cookie cutters and have used them already for templates. Work rather well. I hope you can use them, if not they can make some yummy cookies. lol Glad you like the package.

Thank you sunrise450 for posting my package. In her first photo she sent me the lovely bag which is the perfect size & has a pretty lining inside & also some pretty fabrics I'll be using. The cutest stiletto shoe buttons are on top of the bag; I love buttons of any kind & these are fun. She also sent a quilt magazine & since I don't do subscriptions anymore it's always fun to read/look through them & two potholder pattern books with great patterns in them, four bright crocheted coasters, a Bow Quilt pattern I'd never seen before with actual bows inside the blocks that I plan to make, a pretty pin cushion & Gummy Bears, yum. Thank you for a great package Phyllis, I really love it all!

JuanitaBean 04-16-2016 09:36 PM

Catjo glad you liked what I sent. I forgot to take picture sorry

Received another's nice package from heronfan today. Thank you so much PT! I love it all. (Again) ��. And, yes, I do have the basket for the Keurig so the coffee will be a nice treat. :)

love the fabrics, know exactly what I'm going to do with the kitty fabric.
As soon as I'm finished posting I'm going to sit back & browse the magazine & patterns.
The little ruler; what a great, handy size!
The note cards are wonderful too. The buttons & compact-- so cool!
i haven't used a frixion pen yet, nows my chance. The hearts are going to be fun to find a project for. Candle & lotion-- always a need. :)

everything is great & very appreciated

I have Gaijin to thank for a very lovely, generous package. She made me a beautiful folded wreath in summer colors. She donated several flag color fabrics to the Quilts of Valor projects that my guild does. She included Japanese fabric, a book, ruler, some little notions and a box of peppermint tea. AND a box of wonderful homemade cookies. I hope we get to meet in June when I go on my shop hop.

BrendaK 04-18-2016 05:16 PM

I would like to thank jclinganrey for a super delightful package. Thread, magazines, Tote bag, patterns, and a whole range of blue and white fat quarters, about nine different batiks plus a Tonga Mini Jungle Treat. Thank you sew much.

Gaijin 04-18-2016 05:28 PM

THANK YOU SP, not totally sure of your board name though.


I received my SP box yesterday, and it is an AWESOME box
of goodies.

My computer has decided to do it's only thing for the time
being (until I either get mad enough to fix it or take a big
hammer to it). So with that being said I haven't gotten my
photos uploaded, will try to get them added from my laptop
tonight.

heronfan 04-19-2016 07:21 PM

So glad you liked the package, Colleen. I wasn't sure how it would work out having you two months in a row. Funny you liked the cat fabric. It was the one I was not convinced was a good choice. I hope you enjoy it all.

heronfan 04-19-2016 07:22 PM

Shamrock, if you are willing to share that centerpiece pattern I would love it!

shamrock 04-20-2016 04:19 AM

Gaijin made it for me, you'll have to talk to her. She did a great job!

nikki128 04-20-2016 08:25 AM

When does the next months swap usually get listed? I used to swap a few years back and want to jump in for May but I can't remember when the sign up will be posted.

Thanks :)

vovoa 04-20-2016 10:46 AM

Still waiting to see when my SP receives hers. I mailed on the 7th but it has a Long ways to go.

lynnie 04-20-2016 04:08 PM

Marietta, great swap pkg with the patterns and the fabrics. I'd love to see a doll finished. (Hint Hint)

Received a great pkg from CKCowl on a very rainy day in southwest Louisiana. No flooding around here yet, thanks be, but river is rising with all this weather. Her package included some coffee and tea pods (immediately put to use), a darling book of quilting mystery short stories, beautiful fabric, a memo pad, a pattern for a project I want to do, and a whole box of clips and rubber bands. Thanks so much. It was a great afternoon to curl up with my new book and a hot cup of tea. I was joined by my "partner" Harper who truly feels "any port in a storm" will do for a nap.

Lori Peercy 04-23-2016 02:34 PM

Great packages coming in! Make sure you let me know when you get your package. Here is the link for next month.
