Cuppy so sorry to hear this.

JuneBillie 06-28-2012 08:09 PM

Ok, it's time to be on dragon alert everyone. :D

nancia 06-28-2012 11:18 PM

cuppy--expected or un-expected, it's never easy. sorry.

nancia 06-28-2012 11:21 PM

ok, i'm wearing my dragon watch helmet. it's necessary for protecting your head while looking up. dragons are known for their fumble fingers, so watch out! v-e-r-y dangerous!

Suzan88 06-29-2012 01:00 AM

Cuppy - So sorry for your loss.

Suzan88 06-29-2012 01:13 AM

Sitting I'n the "special procedures" waiting room while our 14 mo old GS I's having a scope (Both ways):(
They r looking for the cause of blood I'n his poopy diapers. We went to the ER on Tyesday, were admitted & have been running tests ever since. Please keep Dakota $ his patens I'n u r prayers. Thank you

nancia 06-29-2012 06:21 AM

laquita-- is dakota the beautiful little boy in your avatar? i will certainly add you and your family to my prayers. here's hoping it's something very simple and easily resolved. such a tough time for you all.

suzan--i.ve wrapped myself in tinfoil so they can't hurt me. it reflects the fire right back to them and burns them up! have you watched the show 'merlin'? it's a wonderful retelling of the camelot/king arthur tale. wonderful dragon(s)!

Suzan88 06-29-2012 06:24 AM

Laquita I certainly will. And know that these doctors are very skilled and do these procedures a lot so from that point of view Dakota is in good hands. I truly hope you get good news and that he is well again very soon.

Bless his heart! I'll be keeping Dakota in my prayers, Laquita. Please update us, when you can.

Got my beautiful needlecase and goodies with it today. Thank you so much dluvs2quilt. Thank you so much for the scissors and needles that are with it. I love the colors and the english paper piecing. I do not know how to post pictures so hope you can Diane so everyone can see it. So girls, I got the one going south!!!!! I am so excited. This is my first exchange and has been so much fun. Thanks again Diane.

JuneBillie 06-29-2012 12:49 PM

Laquita I have sent my prayers for little Dakota. Keep us updated if you can. All the waiting is hard for mom's when it comes to their little ones, and grand momma's too.

JuneBillie 06-29-2012 12:52 PM

Sasquilter, I am glad you got your special package today. It sounds like a great package.

fmhall2 06-29-2012 02:00 PM

I'll join with quiltymom and MarLeClair as I, too, wait patiently (?) for mine. Of course, I shouldn't complain, since mine only went out Tuesday.

CarolinePaj 06-29-2012 02:04 PM

Hi Sue,

I know who your partner is and it took her some time to come up with something original, but I know she found something in the end!!!!!

Hugs

Caroline

I hope I didn't send my swap partner into fits!! The next needlecase exchange I participate in I'll be kind and just leave that part blank.

I don't think mine has arrived at my partners home yet either.

The cases posted so far are terrific!!! I'd love any one of them!!

I've just had the best morning. I was out of town for a week, so my husband picked up the mail and just stacked it on my desk. I am in one other swap too - so today I opened 3 boomerang blocks, and....

A beautiful, needlecase and pin cushion from fmhall. It is so cute. Sortof a miniature book with a thread bag attached. I will love using it. Margie, if you have pics, please post. Otherwise - I will do it later. :) Thank you.

If I can - my case is being posted today. I am finishing the binding now.

Kehoeta 06-30-2012 08:27 AM

Got my needlecase finished and mailed to the west of Mich. :)

Kehoeta 06-30-2012 10:53 AM

OK - Post office closed - so - it is going in the mail Monday

Do you mean you could only see 1 of 6? There are six in there, I've noticed comments on the sixth one. I see six in the album here. This is the pictures of the very unique needle case Lynnie made me.
