LindaR, I want to make that quilt, too! It is on my very LONG list! Verna, the ruler holder is outstanding! If you ever get my name please send me one! LOL I am on the bench now just waiting for my package...I really love the anticipation!
Homecaregiver, I hope all is well with you. |
Dear SP I should have your package out by the deadline. It's not going to be as nice as I would have wanted it. Nothing handmade this time. My DH passed away unexpectedly on Mothers Day, so I have been having to make arrangements. I'm also having to pack up the house as I will be moving back to Phoenix. My DH and her husband want me to come live with them and help with the grandkids, lucky me. I've missed them so much. I'm having to figure out what is going and what to donate or give away very quickly. I just can't bear to stay here by myself. We live in a very rural area. In the 2 years that we have been here I haven't been able to make any friends as DH was housebound so I just stayed home and cared for him.
Lori I will have to drop out of the swap again until everything get settled. |
Robyn,
Sending sympathy and virtual hugs. If I was back home in Arizona, you would have a for-sure friend. Take care of yourself Darlene |
Robyn, so sorry to hear about your husband. Best of luck with the move.
|
Received my wonderful package from Gaijin today. Oh my she really out did herself. Will post pics tomorrow.
|
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, Robyn. My prayers are with you.
|
Robyn so very sorry to hear about your overwhelming loss, my thoughts and prayers are with you!
|
Robyn very sad to hear about your husband. That is certainly life changing for anyone. Hope you are looking forward to your move and the loving arms that will surround you from family. My thoughts are most certainly with you. When you get things somewhat in order, we will be certainly here for you. I wish I lived closer to try and help you but that is not the case. Please keep in touch so we know you are still here and with us in spirit, until you are ready to participate again. Again I am so sorry to hear of your unexpected news.
|
Robyn you and the family are in my prayer's.

arizonagirl sorry to hear about your loss, I will say a prayer for you and your family.
On the other hand I received both of my packages today. Just like Christmas, just love everything. From Grandma Peg I received 3 Charm Packs, 2 packages of pins, material, tablet, thread, gum and I do believe a book to put quilt pictures in? Not sure if that is what it is or not but I will be using it for that. Thank you Grandma Peg, love everything. Grandma Peg thank you for the letter, it was like getting to know you. Made my day. [ATTACH=CONFIG]475613[/ATTACH] From Mary (happystitcher) not sure if that is your screen name or not. I couldn't find one on the package, I received 3 quilt books, 2 machine embroidery books, 2 paperback books, a quilt pattern and doggy treats, next picture I have lots of material, pins and an awesome Christmas pot holder, ( I know I have that design just can't remember right now whose it is), next picture I have a Missouri Star quilt block along with the pattern. Thank you so much for the block. I Love Love everything both of you sent to me. [ATTACH=CONFIG]475614[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]475615[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]475616[/ATTACH] By the way everytime I get a package my DH is waiting for me to open it so he can see what kind of candy I got, so if he likes it I will give it to him. Just broke his little ole heart when I told him I wrote that I didn't want anymore candy on account of losing weight. I am down 2 sizes and am really proud of myself. Still have a ways to go but I will get there. Verna2197 |

Juli how the heck are you? It's been a long time since I talked to you. I just started back on the swap last month. @ years away was a long time. Did you ever get any answers for your medical issues?

Another Note for my Secret Swap Pal:
I just checked the tracking # on your package & it tells me that your package was undeliverable & is being returned to me. Right now it is in Tacoma, WA & I live in Yakima, WA. As soon as it gets here, I will resend it to you. I am so sorry for the delay. It was supposed to be delivered to you yesterday, May 14th. POUT - POUT |
Verna, you are welcome and glad you liked the package. You can share the gum with DH. lol Congrats on going down two dress sizes!!!!

I received a wonderful package from Lindsay aka: deltadawn in England today. I will post a picture later.
|
Dear Robyn, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I am so sorry you lost your DH. Get that move over and done and enjoy your daughter and grandchildren. I live down the street from mine . It took me 18 months to get brave enough to sell my NJ home and move close to my son and family...now 4 yrs later it has been a very good move. (MY DIL found my house for me..she is so precious.) Take your time and be good to yourself.

Everyone is receiving wonderful pkgs this month. Today is moving day/weekend. I'm so tired and at work so hopefully we'll have a smooth move. Glad to see everyone receiving nice pkgs. love the fabric and all and hope to join you all in June's swap. If you don't see me on here for a bit its because of the move and no internet :( but I'll try! Have a good weekend everyone.
