Brenda,

I PMed you but haven't heard anything - hopefully you have my information. If not, please let me know. I'm in for 2 - they're all ready to be mailed!!

Thanks!!

NOW Valentines would be wonderful because well I love red/white/pink/cupids oh yes yes yes! best idea yet (since I have been shopping for valentine fabric the last few days.. I want this one, I want that one.. I am a great window shopper)

I started sending names/addresses...will finish when I get home from work this evening.

YIPPEEE! Mine is ready to go!

Mine is addressed and ready to mail. Yeah!

I still have not heard who my recipient is. But I'm ready, whenever it comes in.

I haven't gotten my names either, but I'm ready and waiting too... :)

Names and addresses have gone out.

Got my names. :D one of you had me for a partner :)

Got mine - out in tomorrow's mail. HOpe you like them, whomever you are.

Hey, I got names toooo .... headed to the post office tomorrow to get them out. Sorry jaba, I don't have any going to you; one set will be on its way to an animal lover though.

In the mail to my partner's, both going east

I have an idea. everyone puton a little eye mask. spin around three times. TADA! what ever direction your sending your present of wonderous fabrics is MINE! I checked! tada I am sooo happy!

Mine is going out of my house! so it must be coming to yours too. This is a secret swap right? now I have to go check. sigh such is it being me. well its coming home soon. bet you by Monday. so stand outside in the rain or snow and await your package chuga chuga chuga chugaaa chooo chooo

Mailed mine out today. Hope you like them. Winter is hard, they want to keep sneeking Christmas in on it. lol
But I suceeded. Merry Christmas to my recipient.

Leaving for my last PT in about 15 minutes. After PT and a cuppa, heading to the post office to mail packages. One of them is going to someone on this thread - you? you? One is heading south from me, hmmm, maybe a little east as well, hmmmm

Got my names and addresses! FQs have been mailed. I hope they're loved :)

I mailed my 2 packages today. They both should be delivered Mon.

waiting outside for the postman.. waiting waiting.. oh crud! i have a PO Box! well time to trudge down the hill uphill the hole way, and wait there. I sure hope she opens the building as its a tad fresh this morning. I keep waiting for winter. Either its late coming or the Sierras are in big trouble. We had a lot of rain last week but snow we need snow. I am always scared living in the forest of a big old fire come summer when things are truly dry. So snow on specific days like the ones I dont have to leave the house on would be marvelous. Could you send some?
Hey better grab some hot coco while I wait ..

Mailed both my packages yesterday, one is an old friend now it seems.....one package is going a little north west of me... the other alot northwest of me.... happy Quilting ladies.....

Mailed mine today. Hope it gets there quick.

Received my first FQs today. Thanks to Jodi (JVan228)!! They are beautiful :) Such fun!!!

Show pictures! This way I can drool from afar.. I had a real tough time finding what I thought was winter for my partner so accidentally I sent fabric I know she will love. it could be winter fabric..say like Dec here but in Hawaii so.. ok it ws a wacked idea. Too late now. Its coming right at you live from SUNNY CALIFORNIA! Its going to be 60 today woke up to 35 but 60 is WRONG for winter. We should be getting winter next week. Snow on Wed or Thurs. Does it feel like winter to you yet? and have you started or done your baking yet if you do it? I have all the stuff. I have to look in the cupboard for a cup of desire. I can't get into it. HELP I NEED SOMEBODY HELP NOW JUST ANYBODY! I mean it anybody! I know what i need! CHRISTMAS MUSIC.. I saw mommy kissing .. eeww.

Well got my BEAUTIFUL fabric today!!!! Thank you so much Sustraley. I love them all .GREAT swap!!!!

Received very cute fabrics from Tumrub today...will post pics tomorrow...camera battery needs charged...bears sled riding, snowmen, stars, branches with pinecones, red and white with Peace, Joy and Hope...all very nice...thanks tumrub

Camera died, need to go buy new batteries (not the rechargeable type). Received fabrics from Grandma Peg. Thank you so much. THey were very wintery - reds and blues and one with snowmen. Plus, she sent a little homemade bag tied with rick rack and some candy in it. Do so enjoy the swap.

Maybe we are taking too many pictures? my batteries are dead too! It feels like I just replaced them this is not getting to be very much fun. I bought good ones too :(

I will hope and hope mine arrives today as snow tomorrow so no post office run for me in the snow. maybe Friday I could get out again so until then I will sit her hoping! I am hoping more mine arrives at their destination today so I can find out if they are liked. So no one is baking I guess. phew thought it was just me.

I received 1 of my sets today from Elisabrat, now that was a big surprise. Had no idea, guess my good friend keeps secrets from me. :) She was in a very generous mood, much to my delight! Sent me 1/2 yds. of these burgundy and whites and of the purple. They're all so rich looking, they will be beautiful in a quilt. This block she sent she called an experiment, what?!?, fabulous, I need to hire you to make me about 29 more of these, wouldn't that be oh so beautimous quilt. Then this extra nice pot holder, I'll just have to have it on the counter and pretend to use it, don't want to spill a thing on that and a new table mat for my kitchen table. Those little carrot nose snowmen really go with all the snow in my front yard....Last purple non slip fuzzy socks, she knows I'm always cold and I can wear these and have a little piece of you here with me all the time. Thank you so much missy, I love everything . What a very special Xmas surprise you sent my way......[ATTACH=CONFIG]381639[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]381640[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]381641[/ATTACH]

I just received my first FQ package from Kiffie2413 with some extra fabric goodies. Lots of fun snowflake fabrics I'll enjoy using.

Thanks, Kan!

Jane

glad you got your package Jaba, I wish I had not had to scrunch so much into such a tiny envelope.. well it was all you can scrunch. I was suprised scrunchster that I am how it worked. I love those things. I sure hope you love the iron too :( sorry about that. it occured to me later how bad an idea that was. Hugs to you you have been such a wonderful inspiration for me here at the QB there is no way to thank you enough.

Received my wonderful fat quarters from jaba (Jan) today. They are so nice and trying to come up with a pattern to
use them. Thanks so much for your gift. [ATTACH=CONFIG]381718[/ATTACH]

A cup a Joe? What a cute idea! You scored GrandmaPeg. Wouldnt that make a great mug rug? why on earth are they called that ? a coaster is a mug rug in theory so isnt a mug rug a tablemat? I am so confused. I know this suprises no one. Least of all me :)

I think that TECHNICALLY a mug rug is bigger than a coaster...:thumbup:

7"x9" is the minimum for the mug rug swap on the board. Still signing up if anyone is interested. I'm still waiting on my FQ's....maybe today

Received these FQs from Mainewoods Mammie yesterday evening ... hand delivered by a neighbor.
They are just perfect! How did you know I am making Snowman mug rugs to go with blue mugs for holiday gifts? Love all the prints ... and she sent an "extra" just for me. Ruth, you are the greatest swap partner! Thank You!!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]382013[/ATTACH] Happy Holidays!

Received my FQ from nancyw today...Thank you

My pal *should* have hers arrive tomorrow. Hopefully she's plugged the camera in to charge because I didn't take a pre-picture.

I haven't posted my fabrics that I received from Mainewoods Mammie because I couldn't get the pictures to post. So I"m trying one more time. And if it doesn't work, I want to thank Ruth so much for the pretty fabric.

Wow what beautiful fabrics. I am in love with the blue with pine cone on it.. never seen that one before. look a puppy! (keep looking surely you see it while I sneak on over and pilfer that one.. got it.. run run run) oh you cant see the puppy maybe next time. now that was close. I would love to know who makes that one.

The winter themes are great. You all have such beautiful selections your sending! Any clue to the theme for January? I know sign ups arent til towards the end of the month but I could start pulling now... still hoping you opt out of mardi gras or maybe a choice mardi gras or .. valentines day? as the swap. so this way I can still play. I am fresh out of masks, beads, jewels, feathers, yuppers fresh out.

went to the post office today all the way down the hill across the highway.. hellooooooo nopers empty box. Snow tomorrow so maybe Monday right? of course I could sneak down right now sit inside and wait! thats the ticket! send mittens and a scarf asap.

Received FQ's from jclinganrey today. It will be nice to have a little stash of Christmas fabric to start some small projects next year. Maybe I can get started on them a little earlier than usual. I love this sparkling black one. [ATTACH=CONFIG]382378[/ATTACH]Thanks so much Jane

I sure wish I knew where you all found your fabric at. I had a heck of a time finding that theme. But what I see on here, they are beautiful!!
