I received a lovely "Thank you" package from Knitette a few days ago! I wanted to thank her again for being so gracious and also thought it would be nice to share a picture!
Lovely slippers, gift wrap set, cookies-yum!, wine glass coaster cover, fabric and ribbon, magnet, special marking pins with lettered beads, a lovely note, and flavored tea (whiskey is one of the flavors!)

Thank you so very much!

Mary deserves to have the pictures shown. For some reason they will not load! I have resized and when I click on upload images it just sits there and the thread I am trying to put it on goes away. She made me one of her pin cushion chairs in black and white fabric with needles and thread and buttons on it, it is beautiful I don't know how it she does such small work! She also sent 6 FQs 2 with fishing theme and the others tone on tone, love my M&Ms and she sent embroidery floss, 2 magnetic note pads (she must have known somehow I had used my last) The jar with buttons is so cute the top has 4 holes in it and she attached pink ribbon as if it where a button itself. She made me a tissue holder and makeup bag in matching watermelon fabric and self threading needles, I Love them! It was a thoughtful package and I loved everything in it! I just wish I could get the photos to upload, I will keep trying because if you have not seen Mary's chair you are missing out.

Lori,first your welcome for your swap. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Second I also had trouble posting a picture. Same problem you had so I followed the instructions Sibi posted on page 40 posting #394 on this july thread.My picture finally posted. hope this helps everyone. Mary

Wanda Lou sent me a great package this month! She must be a tad clairvoyant since she sent me a roll-up tool caddy which is identical to the one a almost bought and regretted not getting --I'll be traveling and away from home for the next three weeks and I was looking for something compact that I could stuff in my suitcase. She also included scraps (love 'em), great fat quarters, an older xmas quilting mag, and a paper piecing pattern for flower baskets that I'm anxious to try when I get back home. Thanx, Wanda. Everything is appreciated and willl be put to good use. That was a very personal package for me and I loved everything in it. Hope I get the chance to return the favor soon.

You're most welcome - a small token of appreciation. Not only did I receive that humongous parcel (pics already posted) the other week, I then got the 'Spicy Spiral' table runner pattern I wanted most and a bundle of Hanky Panky FQs she had me sent from New York! Thank you.

That chair pin cushion is adorable!!! I wouldn't know how to even begin to make something like that. I love pin cushions. Great job! And a wonderful package, Lori.

Lori glad you too figured out how to post pictures. Everytime I figure it out somehow the board changes it's posting .Nancy the chair is really not that hard. Looks harder than it is. Mary
