I, too, hope we can continue the SP swaps. I have been gathering goodies for future swaps. : )

Picture attached showing: hummingbird tapestry square, a Carousel tin (and Spokane has a famous Carousel too!), Xmas mug with Heath bar and Land o Lakes cocoa (my favorite cocoa!) a pattern called Sweet Stuff, batik fat quarters, seam ripper and needles and a box of Good 'n Plenty. Thank you so much!

I have ENVY for that tapestry. I love anything birds and it is simply beautiful. You are one blessed lady.

thanks for checking

Psychomomquilter 12-10-2010 03:53 AM

No matter what, I really hope the swap keeps going!

Ida 12-10-2010 09:54 AM

The lady who has my name PM'd me. She mailed it the 20th of Nov, and it still is "in transit." She is sending me another gift. What a sweetheart! So, you see, not all packages not delivered are the fault of our secret pal's, but the postal service.

Thank you, my secret pal!

How sweet of her! Yes, it happens, things do get delayed in the mail every once and a while. It is great that she contacted you.

Like I said, I would be really surprised if the number of people not sending is as horrific as it shows in this Nov. list. I think part of it is the slow mail, and the other part is people busy with the Holidays and not getting on the board to post that they got their package.

Hi everybody:

I won't be able to work on the swap update until Monday. Headed out to meetings, etc for the rest of the work day and won't have reliable computer access this weekend. If you need to PM me I just wanted you to know that I'll get back to you as soon as I can but it might not be until Monday.

Nolee 12-10-2010 05:15 PM

Enjoy your time off, Bonni, and let us know when registration starts for the January swap. I didn't do December because our post office is out the door in December but am anxious to do January.

Oh my goodness - good things come to those who wait!
Wow Rusty's Mama You really made out. Thats a wonderful package. :thumbup:

pattis47 12-12-2010 06:49 PM

After checking with the USPS I found out that someone that lives near Homewood Ln will be receiving a squishy wed or thursday.

This package has traveled more than 2218 miles to get to its destination..

I hope you will find it worth the wait. :thumbup: :lol: 8-)

cindle 12-12-2010 08:32 PM

I have been such a bad secret pal. I received THE BEST squishy while we were on vacation and I haven't posted a proper thank you to my partner!! She sent me the absolute best box of goodies! Here is a picture of everything that she included. I am already using the scissor case and needlecase when I take my DD to dance class 2x/week!!

Thank you so much!!

Thank you, Patti! I got a very nice squishy last night in the mail from an "angel"! She sent 5 beautiful fat quarters, a REALLY CUTE Snowman wall hanging, a snowflake tissue holder, some pearl head pins, a spool of golden thread, and a pattern for some holiday coasters.

Everything is just lovely! I'll see if I can get a pic posted later today. :thumbup:

Psychomomquilter 12-18-2010 05:13 AM

Glad that you liked it. There is an area to learn applique on the board but if you have any questions let me know. :)

Psychomomquilter 12-18-2010 07:20 AM

where do I go to find out about applique? dpes the toutor board have it, I haven't looked yet. I am sure there are links galore online as well. but would rather stay on the quilting board instead of traipsing around.

Can't wait to get started

BonniFeltz 12-19-2010 11:59 AM

Your welcome. Like those labels. I'd probably go and cut them out and then applique them on.

Psychomomquilter 12-19-2010 12:01 PM
