HHHMMMM not sure what this means :

We attempted to deliver your item at 8:23 am on February 18, 2012 in XXXXXXXX, XXXXXXX and a notice was left. You may arrange redelivery by visiting <a href="https://www.usps.com/redelivery/welcome.htm">www.usps.com/redelivery</a> or calling 800-ASK-USPS, or may pick up the item at the Post Office indicated on the notice. If this item is unclaimed after 15 days then it will be returned to the sender. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.

Never saw this before - but hoping it means it is at the correct PO ( I removed the city, state and Zip) and just means it was too big to fit in the box .....

Sharon, that is exactly what my tracking number says. A notice was left & the package they attempted to deliver.

They went out so close to the deadline, because i had to go shopping. Once people posted pictures half the ones i had were duplicates, so.... I couldn't let that happen and went and picked out new ones.


luv - is your wand out of control again ????????????????

luvTooQuilt 02-19-2012 09:36 PM

My wand is still MIA .. Sure hope it finds it's way back !!!!

As for the notices- no worries.. My po lady knows NOT to send my stuff back... They do not fit in my box so they leave a notice for me instead.. No worries - I'll camp out in the parking lot Tuesday until they open their doors.. So I'll grab them then.. I didn't realize Monday was a holiday.. Whoops- so Tuesday delivery is fine ..I Won't send them back...

QuilterMomma 02-20-2012 10:29 AM

I showed you where you wand was luvtooquilt. Not sure why you think it is still MIA. Miss visiting with you ladies so had to drop in and see where you were at. I am considering the orange swap exchange. I still have some to change out. Daughter may like that because then she will have another orange quilt to enjoy.

Knowing the wand is still safe is a big relief :thumbup: Now off to the stash to look for orange :D

Thanks for keeping the wand safe QuilterMomma. Have a great day !

Its not in MY hand so its MIA !!!!!! I'm hoping its magical powers will send itself back to its rightful owner- ME..

Yosamitesa 02-20-2012 10:53 AM

Have you opened packages yet??? I'm sure it is there somewhere...I hope :)

squires1042 02-20-2012 02:21 PM

Thanks looking forward to getting my package and will be looking to see what Ihave for next month.

QuilterMomma 02-20-2012 02:33 PM

Oh I see how it works, I just may send it to you then in the orange swap. I am about done with it now.

sharon b 02-20-2012 04:33 PM

Don't have a clue as to what I've done but I am not receiving notification of new posts on any of my subscribed threads...If any one can help me, I'll be forever grateful but please give very simple, pain English directions. The only buttons I know how to successfully push are my DHs and the embroidery machine.

Marybrace go to the top of this page and click "thread tools". That will drop a window down. Click "subscribe to thread". You get two choices. First choice is how often you want to be notified of posts. Pick one (I always pick instant email) then click subscribe to thread. That should work for you. I hope.

At the moment there is a technical glitch that has stopped all the notifications - Tech Support is aware of it and is working on it - what I have been doing is going to the settings ( upper right corner) click on that - then scroll down a bit, on the left side click on subscriptions - all the topics you have as "watched" or subscribed will be listed - just look to see when the last post was made - if it was after you were last in a topic click on it and read down- TRUST me I know a PITA- but hopefully they will have us fixed soon

marybrace 02-20-2012 09:19 PM

QuilterMomma 02-21-2012 01:48 PM

I did not take the crystal ball, nope not me. I do not have it, honest, just a wand at my place.

Shes got the EVIL twin wand !!!!! we must locate the GOOD wand before chaos erupts... Good must defeat evil !!!!

GOOD wand come home - find your way back home !!!!!!

sapdoggie 02-21-2012 04:38 PM

Hey Yosamitesa- found the crystal ball :thumbup: :D :thumbup:

Luv- I think there may be something more to the sighting of the sparkly dust- could be the wand is mixed up in the black/bright packages. Just keep looking and thinking positive thoughts - Oh wand - come home soon :) :)

luvTooQuilt 02-21-2012 04:54 PM

Quilter momma has been silent for too long prior to this reminder that she is in possession of the EVIL twin wand.. Oh No !! shes contemplating her next evil plans of complete chaos.. !!!! GOOD is stronger than EVIL and GOOD will prevail!!! There have been pixie dust sightings here and there. The evil force must be strong. Quilter Momma must be using her evil wand to hide the GOOD wand from sight...

Woo Hoo!!! Please keep it safe. I thought Lil Man was throwing goodies in peoples packages. :)

QuilterMomma 02-22-2012 12:09 PM

Lil Man has been busy doing many good things. The boss even let me leave early for lunch with my husband and paid for it. Lunch on Company!!! See I do have the good wand. I may be (evil), but boy am I good.

Yosamitesa 02-22-2012 01:43 PM

Magic Wand, Magic Wand...where for art thou Magic Wand...

Mirror Mirror on the wall...who has the GOOD wand after all?

Maybe if we call the Sorcerer's Apprentice he can help us...if not, does anyone have Tinkerbell's number?

QuilterMomma 02-22-2012 02:33 PM

I got her number alright!

QuilterMomma 02-22-2012 03:25 PM

The Evil has now come out!

OH CRAP !!!!! :eek:

Wand oh wand where are tho- why have you forsaken me... ????
Wand, with you in my hand we can defeat the EVIL among us!!!!
WAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNDDDDDD Where are you Wand ????? :confused:


Wand, dont be scared.. I see the trails of fairy dust you are leaving behind- but its not enough left to help you come to sight.. i WILL find you.. together we will banish the EVIL !!

sapdoggie 02-22-2012 06:47 PM

QuilterMomma - Use the good power wand to overcome the evil one. It is time to get poor Luv back to normal -

who am I kidding- she will never be NORMAL :D :D :D

Good job Little man - how do I get a free lunch???

QuilterMomma 02-23-2012 09:30 AM

I got a free lunch yesterday, the boss bought lunch for my DH and me. Loved it. What good power wand? I have the one and only and if I so choose to let it do my bidding as I see fit, then so be it. If you have any issues, then take it up with that crystal ball which is supposed to know all. I am so glad I have full control. Stay out of my way now until my coffee does its job.

Wand O Wand I felt you near, my heart knew you were here...
This morning I did see, what you left for dear 'ole me...
packages taped and neatly done, looks like you had all the fun..

[ATTACH=CONFIG]314929[/ATTACH]

Swappers O Swappers can you see? look what is waiting all for thee....
Out in the mail they went today, Hip-Hip, Hip-hip Horay....
With the magical powers this wand does posses, in two days the swappers will caress
fabrics so pretty, soft and smooth... will put our swappers in the quilting groove...
So until you come home where you should be, I hope the possessor takes care of thee...



HAPPY QUILTING EVERYONE !!!!

sapdoggie 02-23-2012 06:22 PM

MY oh MY you are so very clever >>>

Looks like we will soon see the results of all your endeavors !

Can't rhyme and can't spell

Please don't tell.

Looking forward to receiving the squares of black and bright !

It will be hard to sleep tonight !!

QuilterMomma 02-24-2012 09:34 AM
