More great squishies! I'm so glad it's Monday and can't wait for my mail lady to come.
And I agree, thanks for posting all the pictures, it gives me a better idea of some things to get also. Suzanne |
I hope my secret pal gets her surprise today..postal lady said she would. Thank you for sharing all your goodies..I enjoy seeing them.
Peace and Blessings, |
I look at these pictures and think to myself that I must shop at different stores than ya'll because I cannot make my $10.00 stretch as far. How do ya'll do it? :?

I think a lot of people gift from their stash. That's what I did on several things I put in my secret pals box. I also do like someone else mentioned, I shop all the time and get things on sale. Of course this just started since my swap this month.

I hit the jackpot, the quilt store I go to had patternes on 40% off which made all them less than $4.00!!!! I got some fun ones for my SS swap!!

My package went out priority today!!

Every ones stuff looks so good can't wait till Aug swap

I make some of my secret pal items, its lots of fun. It is a good way to test out patterns for future bazaar items. Also whenever FQ's go on sale I pick them up. I've never sat down and totaled the $ value of the package I send, I just send what I would like to receive!

I also shop for bargains. I purchase magazines and patterns that are on sale along with gadgets. I try to spend about 10.00 and then I add the fabric. I have way to much fabric in my stash..and will never use it all. I love that this is a way to share the bounty that I have with someone who appreciates and loves fabric.
I hope that anyone who has me as a secret pal never feels they have to give more then they can. Going to the mailbox and finding a card or a note is plenty. I love that we have contact with each other and are making friends. Peace and Blessings dear friends |
