Boop my card is done and ready to mail.

Okay. I think I have a whole post missing. And this new forum is very confusing. I know cuppy is added for January also. I hooked
R-sea and Bugaroo up because they were finished and I know it takes time especially this time of year for international mailing.

I also asked if you all enjoyed the preview in advance for the year. Okay. Well I hope you all can find us. Happy New Year all.

We are looking good for January.

R-sea & Bugaroo, you're partnered for this month since you are both done early. On the third I will draw the other names to start a new swap for a new year. Just be patient. They said they are working on the forum.

My card is ready too. Can't wait to see who I have this time.

I generated our first swap by using name wheel random draw . I figured for the first swap it was fair.

I received such a cute ducky from Queenbarbiej. Thank you, Q. I don't usually have trouble posting photos, but since the last website update, I cannot seem to find the right icon to upload from my computer. The one previously used, only has choices for a URL or link. I would appreciate any suggestions.
FYI - I mailed my post card to Cuppy last Friday.
Thanks, and Happy Monday!

Mpepperm if you post a reply click the go advance button it will take you to a reply to thread page. There is a paper clip next to a smiley face. Click on it and a page should pop up. At the very top of the page is where you add your picture. Go to the far right of that page to upload the picture.

PatriceJ posted pdf instructions at the end of this post by her. https://www.quiltingboard.com/8350016-post29.html
