My swap partner may get her package today, even though we live on opposite sides of the country!

Everyone have a great day!

I received a incredible package from Gaijin. It is perfectly me. The banana fabric is going to become an apron for me. The Noah's Ark panel is fantastic. Love the unique animals on it. It will become a quilt for my grandson as well as the book. The animal material will be used for ISpy quilts. The candy did not make the picture becauseI ate it. Love the eucalyptus mint candle. My favorite. Thank you Dorothy.

Hav4boys beautiful bag and dish cloth. I just love them, especially the colors.

I received a wonderful package from Heronfan, (Pat). Sorry I can't post a pic. It had lots of kids fabrics, as you all know, or most that I run a non-profit charity group that makes quilts for kids. So I can never get enough kids fabrics. One of the fabrics is of cowboys and it is adorable! She shared some of her orphan blocks that she won from her guild, which I collect the blocks and then make quilts with them for the kids. Also some soap, lotion, Plus a book with iron labels, which I was wanting one, and a blue/red embroidery patten. I think I remembered everything. Package was stuffed to the gills. Thank you so much for every item in it Pat!

catjo 05-20-2017 02:55 PM

Belfrybat, You received a nicely stuffed box. What is the two lacey round items, doilies or ornaments? They look so pretty to the eye.

catjo 05-20-2017 02:58 PM

Verna, You will have to let me know how the "hair item's", pattern works out. I have let my hair grow long and I can never find enough hair "holders/barrettes" and was thinking about making my own.

Catjo, So glad you liked what I picked out!

I received a great package from Adelia. I'm sorry I don't know your screen name and it wasn't included. I love all the Laurel Burch fabric and the cute little bag you sent. The bandaids are a HOOT! I've never seen them before. I will enjoy the coffee and hot chocolate. The sweets are wonderful too. Love, love, love the yellow jelly roll. Thanks so much! [ATTACH=CONFIG]573431[/ATTACH]

Hey Cathy I am gonna mail the patterns to you as I just cut my hair all off and I am going to keep it this way. Much easier to take care of. Give me a call sometime. Am home almost all the time. Planning a trip back up that way here soon hopefully

They are embellishments -- lacy rounds with ribbon flowers in the center, and very pretty. Would do great on purses to hide the snap. But you've also given me an idea in that I could add a narrow ribbon to hang them as well.

catjo 05-21-2017 12:54 PM

Verna, Thanks so much! I will give you a call this week. I have put together a quilting retreat for the last weekend in October, thought you might be interested. It is going to be in Bedford, IN. You could bring your sister too if she would be interested. I will tell you more when I call.

Bullock2us 05-21-2017 08:13 PM

Thank you for posting the picture Armylady2012 - I could not get mine to work. Sometimes it is hit and miss for me- Thanks again for a wonderful package!

Know that town well use to spend summers there when I was a child on the river.

I am going to be gone camping. Marty and I will be leaving May 28th and returning June 2nd. That throws a wrench in getting names out on the 1st as there is no internet in the cabin. I set the due date on the 17th instead of the usual 15th this will give you call a little more time as you will not get your names on the first. Here is the link to June swap!!

Caroline, I am happy it made it safely to you. Enjoy!

catjo 05-27-2017 05:05 PM

I love that tissue holder!!! I will have to see if I can find that pattern. Would be great as our project for the quilting retreat I am planning for my group at the end of October.

catjo 05-27-2017 05:05 PM

Some really nice things I see that everyone is receiving. Lots of kind people in this group!!!!!

jclinganrey 05-27-2017 08:38 PM

I received my May package from Vontina of Maryland. You didn't include your QB screen name so I could thank you properly. Hopefully you're reading this thread!!

Thank you for the fun fabric, the book and the snacks.

Armylady2012 05-29-2017 07:52 AM

Gaijin where can I find the pattern for the tissue holder, they would make some beautiful gifts for my grandsons teachers.
