Are people already getting their information for their July pals? I thought I signed up correctly but I'm still learning how to do things right. Should I resend the PM just in case?

This form will be given to your secret pal. The more you put on there, the better she/he will be able to get things you'd like. Additional information may be helpful to them as well.

There is a 10 dollar budget for this swap. The 10 dollars can, or cannot include things from your stash. Postage isn't included in the ten dollars. The most important thing to remember with the budget is to have fun.

Sent you a PM, count me in! :)

ruthruff3 06-26-2010 08:32 AM

I sent a pm....got my June package and it was great ....now I can hardly wait for July. My mailman probably hates me doing these 'cause I get so excited to receive my package that I meet him at the door every day asking "do you have my special package today?"....he probably thinks I'm nuts!!! Oh well, gives him something to talk about .....hahaha

Lynnc 06-26-2010 10:17 PM

I just got back from Walmart and they were discontinuing some of their quilting supplies. So I went crazy and bought stuff for this swap and a few others down the road. I'm looking forward to this. I'm new to this. Kid in a candy store.

Karen 06-28-2010 09:53 AM

Please sign me up this sounds like such fun!

TanyaMas 06-28-2010 10:27 AM

please remove me from this swap...
I thouroughly enjoyed it for may and june, and will miss it.
But i wont be back, i am sorry.

grammynan 06-28-2010 01:38 PM

This is so much fun!! I can't believe how many people signed up!

debbieumphress 06-30-2010 06:49 AM

I am in again too. Pm'ing you. Wahoooooo

JRSAY 06-30-2010 07:50 AM

This is a such a great way to meet another quilty friend, got amazing goodies, and made someone else smile, what a way to have some good fun!

Mrs Nat 06-30-2010 07:58 AM

I have a small concern about the Secret Pal swap. I think those who sign up should do so with the idea of communicating with their partner to get to know each other. Otherwise, what's the point of just sending someone a "gift" and never getting further acquainted???

BonniFeltz 06-30-2010 08:09 AM

When it was time to send out my package to my secret pal, I sent her an email and told her I was her secret pal and to expect the package. Since then we have corresponded via emails a couple of times and I plan on keeping in touch with her. There isn't any rule that says you can't correspond after sending the packet.

Conniequilts 06-30-2010 08:29 AM

I'm in - my girlfriend Bonni showed me her goodies from June :)

BonniFeltz 06-30-2010 08:35 AM

Yep Yep. got WONDERFUL stuff and will have to get going on quilting with some of the fabric. Connie help me decide what to make, although it was by accident. I was showing her a pattern that I had cut out for applique. I had cut out the middle so that I could hold it up to the material and get an idea on what the finished product would look like and I used my fabric from the June swap since I had it with me to show Connie. Now I "HAVE" to do it because it looked cute!

dawson.tracy35 06-30-2010 01:24 PM

I sent you my info by PM

this is me in a very emotional medicated state... I apologize.. if im out for july, its ok (my own doing), but i cant say that i wont be back (addiction to this board and all of yall is very strong) lol

mswordwiz 06-30-2010 02:04 PM

YAY!~!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CajunQuilter2 06-30-2010 02:42 PM

Yes originally part of the swap was to put a note telling a little bit about ourselves. I think it would be fun that once the package is mailed to e-mail and then others want to wait till they get it. Maybe that can be a preference we send along with the other infor we send when we sign up.

lynnie 07-02-2010 08:25 AM

I would love to be in the July secret pal
