I did sent her out 16 more yesterday by 2day priority mail and sent her the tracking number. I must have lost my mind that day----not only do I know we trade 5 fat quarters, so I don't know where the 2 or 4 came from....but I also don't know why I wasn't thinking in terms of sets. OK....maybe this isn't really a funny story....but it does say what a gracious, considerate soul Jamie is! Thanks for being so understanding, Jamie!
Blessings.... I am sure Jamie totally understood, too..since you sent the others out to her no harm done.. I always tell on myself for my "goofs", my quilting group friends say it made them feel better when I joined the group and have been so honest about my um, "loony tooniness"... Regards, Kif |
Feel better soon sewellie!!

Oh heck dear I hear a QUILT of fabric at your disposal so get sewing. She did you a favor now you will put them into use asap so you can show her tada I know how to make it happen (even if you have to borrow an egg quilt book from the library right?)
OK I just posted my ELISABRATs fall/halloween tablerunner/mat swap so think you could sign up and be so geared for this its not funny! with this swap your stash.. you are SET! quick! before slots run out (oh no slot alotment? pretend!) |
I heard from Brenda that my second set of 30s will be coming as an "angel" package. I have no idea what that means, but I assume whoever had my name didn't participate. Does anyone know what happens? I don't want Brenda to have to send a set for the person who failed to fulfill their commitment. It won't keep me from signing up for next months swap, I guess I would like to know what happens to the person who didn't keep to their agreement to swap.

I received my swap of FQ's from Auntpiggylpn yesterday. Such beautiful fabric and she is so generous! She sent me 5 beautiful FQ's, all new to me and a half yard of another beautiful 30's fabric. Then along with everything else she included a personalized coffee cup wrap!
Now I just have to learn how to post pictures! Thank you so much Ruth! |

Personally, I would not mind doing a 30's swap again, soon!
|
Have not seen August posting, did I over look it?
|

Wondering what August theme will be? |

|
I need an angel for July (30's repro)..please PM me. Thanks!
|
I don't understand why my photo is showing up side down! I took the photo from my iPod and it looked straight when I posted it. Now it shows upside down! Can anybody help me with this?
