[QUOTE=catjo;7802729]SP clue: This will probably give it away. I was not aware that Jack Hanna has a role in your town.

well its not my town

heronfan 04-12-2017 08:15 AM

Verna, I hope are doing better. Cold and flu season was awful this year!

Jack Hanna does something called Wild Days at Seaworld San Antonio. I'm just south of San Antonio. Could it be me????

My package is almost complete, SP. Just need to stop at the store for your sweets and then write a note. It will go out tomorrow.

HINT: Your state has a military base with a hospital or clinic and the lowest recorded temperture was -60. My husband always remarks that if many more people move to where we are we are headed to your state! He thinks it's beautiful there!

Received my package today from Cuppy. She did personal shopping, blue fabric, black fabric, bobbins. Needed them all. Thank you.

I have been tracking my SP's package and it said it got delivered today at 11:03 I hope that she likes what I sent. I will have to say that was a fast trip considering where it was going.

Hi Maxie,

I just arrived home from one of my quilting groups to see a wonderful package waiting for me... even the box is lovely. I love everything that you send especially the red fabrics. I have never had a jelly bean egg so I will look forward to eating them. I will post a picture tomorrow to show the lovely package you sent and I will PM you too.. I just wanted you to know that I have received it as I know it is worrying when you are sending across the pond!

Hugs

Caroline

My last item arrived for my SP package. I am making a special gift in her favorite colors. Hoping to finish it up Saturday and have her package in the mail.SP Clue: Your name is also an opera by Donizetti that premiered in 1841.

I received my package from Verna. It included lovely Butterfly fabric, quilt blocks, crotchet dollie, Tinkerbell pencil, journal, handmade soap her daughter makes, key chain, and I am sure I am forgetting other items in it. I moved it into my sewing room so I don't have it in front of me any longer. Lots of goodies, and she told me I have something else coming. hmmmm. Love surprises! Wish I could post the pic for all you to see. Thanks Verna!

BrendaK 04-14-2017 01:05 PM

Received a super package from Gaijin. I will use everything she sent. Especially excited to read the book from her local author! Love the paper piecing book, the Best Press and the soft fabric. As you can see the gummi worms she sent never made it to the picture! Thanks so much!![ATTACH=CONFIG]571711[/ATTACH]

The items in everyone's packages are just lovely. What wonderful things everyone has received this month. With the weather changing to nice I am sure a lot of people aren't spending as much time online as they had been. I just wanted to post and say how nice the packages were. Hope everyone is doing well and have a great week!

I am still on the fence. Hoping my package comes soon. Here is pictures of the items I sent to Adelia. Her favorite colors were pink, yellow and blue.

catjo 04-25-2017 02:16 PM

Gaijin, you will have to tell me if that book is any good.

Armylady2012, I have a pattern for a small thread catcher if you would like it. Pm me your info to send it.

hav4boys, Love the tote bag!

Gaijin 04-26-2017 05:30 AM

I received my package from far, far away and across the great sea. Unfortunately I do not know the name of who sent it. I think it said Connie on the card. It was a lovely package and how did she know I needed a new tape measure. Thank you so much.

I apologize to catjo for being so late in posting here. My DH had some severe medical issues going on for a couple of weeks in April.
Thank You for a wonderful package and when I went to post today realized I couldn't find the 2nd pic. so had to take another on, and the chocolate bar was still in the pencil case :) I try to wait till I post to enjoy.
She sent box type pencil case with mentioned chocolate bar and a stilleto with happy face beads, a scrubby, a memo booklet, fading marking pen, [I asked for something local and she included a pouch with the Colts logo and her LQS row by row license plate-tickled to see it], some wonderful FQs that will be useful for when I do an I spy quilt, and a book "Gatherings" with lots of projects. and a note on a forget-me-not card. I'm sure I will not forget your thoughtful gifts. hopefully the pictures will up load.
