I know and it really stinks cuz I can't afford to fly to Iowa this week, so I'm walking. :mrgreen: Gotta go!

I think Candi has a broom she might loan out

Time to go sew - if I sit here in front of this computer I'll get nothing done today

It would be nice if people took a picture of their finished block for Marty's quilt and posted it here for all to see :-)

Maybe a new thread?

Very god idea Krystyna you can set up a new thread and handle all the questions for these people! You ARE in charge of this one!

I'm not in charge of anything.
I'm not even in charge of myself!
Here's the new thread ... unless Admin moves it!

My box is in the mail.
You should receive it Thursday or Friday at the latest.

Ok Pal, your box is going out either today or tommorrow, depending on an item that I am waiting to show up :)

A HINT: Your town was Incorporated in 1885.

The quilt is a great co-op project to do for Lori's friend MARTY. Can't get involved on this one, BUT I can send popcorn prayers for all involved that it comes together smoothly and it will be a blessing for Marty and help her thru a tough time.
I did send and receive her address, and I CAN send cards of support and enocurgement.

YAY!!! Krystynatown was incorporated then!!!

Hmmmm...my SP is either lurking or out with her DH or DGC???

Ok SP, package went out today.Should be there by the weekend. One clue.She likes Cats. How was that Candi? Now off to finish blocks for Fall swap.

oh man! not me, don't have either of those! :(

Soooooo is your package going north? by chance? :mrgreen:

OK I have put both my packages in the mail, I am shipping them priority which now a days would be sometime next month! LOL just teasing....

Hopefully you both will have your individual packages shortly! YAY!

HAHAHA

I am not saying which direction my box is heading.
Just be on the look out.

More clues:

They have pets (dog & cat) though I am not saying
how many of each there are.

They have the letter "B" somewhere within their
name (does not mean the first letter either).

The flower they like is a common one found in many}
flower beds.

They list 2 colors as favorites. Both colors are
often used in a holiday.

They only listed 3 current projects.

The city/town is LESS than 10 sq miles (approx.)

That is ALL I am saying until my SP receives their
box.

This has been fun and can not wait to join in another
swap.

AWW shoot! Well I matched all but one! My town is 28.8 square miles.. sniff sniff, oh wait, unless you mean the actual town I actually live in! Now that is less then 10 miles! ARGH!! LOL You are really good at this Louise!!

LOL

Lets just say I have "experience" at teasing when it comes
to secret swaps.

Hey I just now noticed you are from Casper, WY my Aunt & Uncle
are from there although right now they are in AZ (snow birds).

:lol:

Man you are old. *runs*

SP your box is on its way!

You have a rainy day today also as do I.

Your high is 65. Mine is 55.

See how much alike we are? HEE.

That's what I was thing too.Runs with her

I was elated when I walked in the door for lunch and saw a package sitting on the counter and it was addressed to me; I thought "wow my SP got their package out in a quick hurry" my elation soon turned into "darn, it's just the book I ordered from ebay."

I think I have caught up on most of the messages on this site and now I also think I know who my secret pal is. For awhile I thought it was everyone but now I'm closer to the "truth". Candi sure has taught us well on how to stalk and hunt for clues. I think it is coming from a state that my grandparents settled in when they immigrated to the US.

Lori - just want you to know that I sent my block out for Marty to you today. Had a little ooops moment when I squared up the top. Ooops I cut a little hole in the backing but then just added another strip - all better now.

And my package should go out at the end of the week to a state that has an i in its name.

Waiting for the mail truck, opening SP packages, sending thank you's

Yup. Measurements of my sandbar

That is ALL I am saying until my SP receives their
box.

No need to say more, except you're welcome after I thank you!

No. They knew I was coming and prepared in advance!

No good clues for me - I struck out with the whole "B" thing!

Off by 100 years!!! Clarksville was incorporated in 1785!!

My goodness, I already received my SP package and it was awesome I will post pictures in a little bit, right now busy sewing.

Just wanted to thank Dotty so much for such a great package!
Thank you, thank you!!!

I have my pal's ready to mail, if I can get hubby to give me $5.65 after I've already spent my allowance for the week...LOL
I will mail it...I was soooo needing stamps, that I counted change to buy stamps...for the boomerang 6 swap..

Boy SSI better hurry and approve me for diability...LOL

WOW! The fast swapper award goes to Dotty :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I 2nd that - wow Dotty.. you are on the ball :thumbup: I can't wait to see pictures.

I cant keep up. I am skipping to the end of the posts. Hopefully I will be going to the post office Saturday Morning. Which direction will I mail?

I have my package all ready to go to the PO tomorrow and I have pictures of the contents, It's heading north of me to a state with an I in it, and it's on the cool side there now... Probably won't be there
till Monday, hope she likes it...Oh her name is the same as a couple other people on the board...

Update. We are piled up in one of our favorite motels on the NY-Pa border which likes Ray. Ray is sleeping on my feet, G is watching some idiot tv show and I just read about 25 pges of messages.

SP your package was put in the box by a super nice post mistress in N Hartland, Vt this morning. It's going to a state that is next to the state Candi is in now and that i retired from. I was not able to do anything personal as we've been on the road for ever it seems. I hope that there isn't too much of one color you don't like much, but I couldn't resist what I sent.

I can't wait to get home to 2 months boxes!!

From here we're heading to Steamtown and then got to drop by Lancaster as long as we're in the neighborhood....any special fabric stores not to be missed?

I guess this ones not for me as I do like to read but never mentioned anything about gardening!!! shucks!!!! :cry:

Ugghhh ... this one isn't mine either ... My town was incorporated in 1883 when the Canadian Pacific Railway went through. :x

Well I dont see any hints here for me ... I will keep waiting!!! This is so much fun and love to read everyones posts.

However, I just stopped in to let you all no my package is now in the mail and it is on its way to someone whose zip adds to 18 ... Could this be for you????

I just googled my SP's address.. really cool area she lives in.. There is a Post Office, ball field and pool close by.

Mine and Charles packages are going out tomorrow. One is going wayyyyyyyyyyyyy far east and kinda almost in line with Oregon.
The other is going south and then east just a tadbit. Both like to drink tea, one doesn't like licorice, both have dogs, one likes embellishments, the other doesn't say.
And THIS MONTH he made his own package...but he did get stuff from me...AND HE EVEN ASKED permission. LOLOL

Darn. I don't like licorice or tea.

UH OH, I just remembered.... I forgot to sew the inside seams of my SP's pouches I made, ack!! :roll:
Well pals, sorry about that, there is a small hole on the inside of your zippered bags just whip stitch it and it will be good to go, I cannot believe I forgot to finish that! :shock: :shock: :hunf: :roll:
