That is fantastic! I can give you my addy:)

I have not received mine yet, but did get a nice PM upon receipt of the one I sent out.

The reason I am debating is because it has to go a ways to its new owner and do they really want a hot air baloon ornament. These looked so cool to make so that is why I did, now I wonder if the person receiving them will want it. So please let me know what ya think. I have some candy cane holder ornaments on back burner so can do those this weekend and still make mailing date.

Still playing with posting pictures. The "K" is from Sheila-in Erie (only because I whined. I've known her for 35 years - I'm allowed). The yo-yo tree is from tilted ears and the quilted square is from Patti's47. The picture doesn't do them justice. Can't wait to put them on the tree. The cat is just hanging out, hoping I will turn my back so she can steal an ornament or two.

You have a wonderful collection - hope you can wiggle the top of the tree back up straight & tall again. I didn't have a mailing box the right size, so they had to agree to stand-up again after being temporarily squished.

Very cute Christmas 4 patch from owlvamp..love it!

JSNOMORE 11-05-2011 03:11 PM

WOW Brenda, you got some very cute ornaments. I'm glad you liked the angel. you deserve them all for all of the hard work you do putting our swap together, THANK YOU

Aurora 11-05-2011 05:25 PM

First, I want to say I received both my ornaments. One, I think came from Tiltedears, a lovely Yo-Yo Tree. The other I am not sure who sent it -- an incredible snowman (I love snowmen). The envelopes my ornaments came in are still in my car.

Second, if you have not received an ornament, it is possibly my fault. I found and discarded many ornament ideas. When I finally decided on one, after making one, I was compelled to improve on its design. Finally, my ornaments are completed and will go into the mail on Monday. I apologize for the delay and hope they will be worth the wait.

I will send a proper "Thank You" to the senders of my ornament in the morning. I had them with me yesterday at my guild's UFO and last night at our annual "All-Nighter Lock-In" (can you think of anything more fun than 23 hours of nonstop quilting). Both ornaments received the "Sassy Stitchers' Seal of Approval".

Robinlee 11-05-2011 07:37 PM

I've been looking thru to see if my ornaments made it to their new homes? Tlrnhi/Terri and MellieKQuilter/Meianie were my pal's. They were sent out Halloween day. Has anyone seen anything yet?

brenda21 11-06-2011 11:10 AM

Just wanted to let all of you know that I have been getting messages from people that ornaments are still being mailed out...several people lost the addresses when the board format switched and have been pm-ing me to get them...please be patient and they should all be arriving soon...PM me is you have any questions. :)

smiles 11-06-2011 11:17 AM

Thanks for the update Brenda, anticipation keeps growing, can't wait for my surprise. Smiles

TiltedEars 11-06-2011 11:57 AM

It's even more exciting, considering all of your revisions! I look forward to seeing your hard work. I'm glad you liked my yo-yos. I sure love making them!
