Received my sp name. Thank you Lori! You live way North (most people do LOL!) of me and your favorite color is also mine it starts with a p... Can't wait to get started on your pkg.

Krystyna 05-02-2013 11:47 AM

Got mine, too! I think I've had her before ... or she's had me. (Not thinking straight thanks to pain meds for two teeth needing root canals tomorrow). Anyway I'm so happy to have her! Thank you, Lori!

lauriejo 05-02-2013 12:07 PM

Yippee! I got my name, thanks Lori for working so hard for us to have fun. My SP this month likes . . . something I like too! What a coincidence, don't you think?

createfourpaws 05-02-2013 12:51 PM

YEAH!!! Thank you Lori for you hard work. I go my name. She is north east of me. Can't wait to get off work today to start some stuff.

Bilben 05-02-2013 01:16 PM

Yay, I got my SP! Thanks, Lori, I know you put a lot of work into these matches! My SP likes... Green!

Yankeegirl 05-02-2013 01:26 PM

This is my first time participating and I'm super excited - I got my SP and she lives about 470 miles away from me and we both like buttons!! Can't wait to shop this weekend :)

sarge1 05-02-2013 01:30 PM

ssnare 05-02-2013 01:48 PM

Actually no! Been pre-occupied waiting for my new Brother Quattro 2 to come in and it did today so went to go pick it up and will be spending at least a day getting familiar with it. If you are not familiar with it, it is top of the line embroidery machine which also sews, quilts and for crafting. It has all sorts of accessories, for sewing, 4 hoops for embroidery, and lots of other goodies. It also is TOTALLY COMPUTERIZED. :-)

brenda21 05-02-2013 04:06 PM

got my name...she is a regular on here and on the FQ swap:thumbup:

sewdamncute 05-02-2013 05:04 PM

I got my name!!!! Found some stuff today!!! Least fave fabric and candy the same as mine!!!! You are a regular here!!!!

Krystyna... good luck tomorrow at the dentist...I often use the phrase "I'd rather have a root canal" than do something I don't want to do...let me know if its appropriate!!!:)

Sibi 05-02-2013 05:50 PM

Yipee, got my SP's name. Can't wait to start putting together something nice for her. She lives northwest of me.

This could be me

Sdwill 05-02-2013 06:34 PM

I got my SP's name. She lives 393 miles due North of me. Thanks Lori for all you hard work.

TOOMANYUFO'S 05-02-2013 07:02 PM

My SP likes a candy that I do not like. I make funny faces when I try to eat itand then have to spit it out.

Lori Peercy 05-02-2013 07:32 PM

glad that everyone has their names I forgot to post that I was done and if anyopne did not have their sp to send me a private message right away.

Krystyna they have come a long way know with doing root canals. They do not hurt at all, only the novacaine.

Lori Peercy 05-02-2013 07:46 PM

We have 2 regular people from the QuiltBoard that are in need of our help. I am asking if you can help, dig out your cheerful sparkles and sprinkle them on Gzsulivz and CrazyQuiltinRobin. Here is what Robin is going through and you will understand why she is in need of some cheering up!
This one is one that Krystyna let us know about!
Many of you know CrazyQuiltinRobin, who has been an ever cheerful member of the doll quilt swap. She is having a tough time right now and is preparing for stem cell / bone marrow transplant therapy which is very dangerous. We would like to give her a card shower. If you are interested in helping us, please send a get well card, or any card with your well wishes and blessings to her at the following address. Thank you for spreading the love.

Hi LORI: my friend RENEE ( gzsulivz) is a qb member, but hasn't been able to participate in a few months. Her hubby has been very ill since MARCH 12 and in the hospital. She is a new gramma ( BBY GIRL) as of MARCH 13th, and has had to just set her life aside.
I know she wants to do the SP SWAP but just can't till her hubby gets better, and he has a long recovery. Is there any way a secret angel out there that could step in and send her a SUPRISE sp pkg? I know she would greatly appreciate any bit of support. Even if all it is, is a card with a fat quarter stuffed inside. IF not, that's ok also. Thanks for any thoughts. I know Renee would be very touched by a surprise. All her energy is focused on helping her hubby 24-7. No Sewing or fun for her at all. BLESS YOU LORI :-)

I have both of their addresses but don't want eveyone in the world to see them. If you would like their address, one or both please send me a private message and I will send them back to you.

I am getting my card ready now, hope you join me.........

quiltnut4ever 05-03-2013 03:32 AM

Krystyna, brenda21 and lawsonmugs, sorry I'm not your SP's. Brenda21 CONGRATULATIONS to you and your son! You should be so proud of him!!! I will start putting my sp pkg together this weekend. I have an overnight trip Sat.-Sun. and once back home I'll start my pkg. She is a very active and giving person. That's all for now :)

homecaregiver 05-03-2013 03:55 AM

I received my names yesterday and printed info off so I can have it in my hand where ever I go then I can just go shopping in my quilting closet. And of course other places.
Thanks Lori for all your work to make us all happy.

Hi All- Got my second name. I decided to splurge this month and do two as I need good things to wait on, like packages. Clue for partner number two - your favorite candy is on Partner #1's least favorite list - and you both dislike a candy that is the same.

I concur! Thank you for all the time you put into keeping us giggly!:thumbup:

Krystyna 05-03-2013 05:55 AM

EEEEKKKKK! Mailing deadline is the 11th! I am bidding on a charm pack in my SP's favorite colors by her favorite designer and I sure hope it gets here on time!!!! :shock:

luvstoquilt 05-03-2013 06:34 AM

I got my SP's name and I have had her before. She is often on here...Her zip is 12 or 3 depending on how you add it! I am off the the LQS...and then to my stash!

Poo! Mine is 8 no matter how you add it.

Belfrybat 05-03-2013 06:39 AM

I received two SPs names this month for double the fun. One is a regular on this thread and posts frequently -- a first for me, so following her will be exciting. The other is lightly active on the board but has never posted on this thread, even to say she's signing up. She also left out all the questions, so deciphering her answers has been "interesting" to say the least. One's favourite candy is the other's least favourite. Both have been sewing/ quilting for 50+ years, so are close to my age. And both like to read. I'm looking forward to filling each of their envelopes to the max. Let the shopping and crafting begin!

luvstoquilt 05-03-2013 06:40 AM

Lori I sent a card to CrazyQuiltinRobin today...Buslady sent me her address. I would love to send a little package to Renee..please send me her address. I will keep Robin's address and send her a card every week or so...I know that is very serious...if you watch "Good Morning America" Robin Roberts has just gone through a bone marrow transplant and it has been brutal! Sharon OOPS...meant to send this as a PM.

clsurz 05-03-2013 07:42 AM

OK I'm going to break down and tell you who my SP is?

Yeah when pigs fly and reach the moon on there own steam. LOL

barefoot quilter 05-03-2013 08:05 AM

ok asked for two this month, when i went to get my mail from lori, in one of them was myself, now i want to know is how do i do that, do i send myself a package or what ??????? thanks lori this is too fun

buslady 05-03-2013 08:06 AM

I got my SP, boy was I behind on my reading!! My sp zip adds up to 15, the only way I know how to add it. She likes bright colors, just like me.

clsurz 05-03-2013 08:07 AM

Hints For My Secret Pal

1) You use 8 different letters in your name
2) Your zip code totals in number 28 X 5 - 112 = :hunf: LOL
3) If you subtract my zip code numbers from yours it will give you a sum of 17450
4) Your least favorite notion/fabric line is like mine
5) Your favorite candy :p------

If you guess who you are with these clues before I mail out I will send you a boatload of -----.:)

buslady 05-03-2013 08:07 AM

Well, there's one pal that you KNOW will get what she wants! LOL

lawsonmugs 05-03-2013 08:09 AM

My pal has alot of the same answers as I do. Same candy only mine is sugar free.We like home made items and not fussy. She lives in the state I was born and raised in.We both like wine. That's all the hints.
