I'm so glad you got them. I really liked this set also. Reminds me of Spring to fall with the green, birds, and cherries to the gold.

Someday when we use them, (I have a set also) we should compare how we use them! FUN!

Got up this morning and had to go to town to run errand and get some groceries. I dont know about all of you but I think going grocery shopping is just the pits. To top it all off it has been just blah and dreary all day. So, I get home with two of the kids in tow screaming and fussing. What do I find but a package in the mail. Yippee, something to turn my day around. Got in the house and it was even better than I expected. Thanks so much MaryMo, the fq's are great. As I opened the package and read the note, I looked over the fq's anad each one told me what they wanted to be used for. The two small prints on the end will be used for some orders for the local country store, most likely potholders. the sailboat has asked to be added to the rest of the sailing stash for future use. The red with daisy are being joined in holy stitch lock with some very cute daisy buttons and will become a thread catcher most likely while the button fabric well its screamed pincushion to me and the best of all the blue panel with the dacing animals its gonna become an apron for most likely me since I dont have one. Thanks again MaryMo, what a way to put a smile on my face.

Now that I posted the pics, I have admit. I'm off to pick out what Im sending my partners. I know, I know, I'm really behind. But what can one expect. 5 kids, a husband, 2 dogs, summer break, and opening a business. I'll get them in the mail on Friday since I have to take one of the kiddos to the doc for a physical. Football practice is starting already and the kids go back to school on the 16th of this month. Guess, I should also get to back to school shopping but that can wait till the stash has been raided. Be patient partners there are coming. LOL

Got my package sent off today. It is going South East of me. I hadn't read the post on here about postcards before I mailed. I did include a post card but it wasn't one from my town, but I like the idea.

I recieved my second set of fq's the other day. The are great. Unfortunately I have these little kremlins running around my house called kids. My 7 year old liked the picture on the card that came with fq's and took it off my sewing desk. Well any of you with kids know where this is going. Yep, he lost it. I have searched for two days for this card and nothing. So, whoever you are that sent them, thank so much i love them and they will find a happy home in a new project. I'll send a PM once I get your user name from Brenda.

Received one set of FQ's today from my friend Mscupid804. Look at the buttons that match the fabric. Isn't that perfect? Wonder what I should make with this fabric so I can use the buttons. Suggestions welcome. I love all the fabrics. She also sent me a spool of thread and a very nice note. Thanks Teresa.

mscupid804 08-06-2012 12:37 PM
