Hi Bilben, I am following your package on USPS and so far It left my house and went to a Philadelphia hub and is now in Jamaica, NY. I think this is going to take a loooooooooooong time. Maybe you will see it in the spring! I do hope not.
peace

Don't worry,
I am patient! I know things take a long time to get here. Once mail finally gets to Vancouver, BC it get trucked up here, so that adds a few days a well.

wow that is slow mail for sure! almost like in Europe seems to take forever to get mail from here to there.. I found it takes about 10 days to Canada from CA and WY when I mail.

I am excited about the next swap.. this time will post pictures of work in progress. that cow or pig or chicken is still talking to me.. lol so perhaps its meant to be. besides once I make something I don't usually repeat it so I can get it out of my system now.. theme I need a theme to go with it however...

@ Elisabrat: I really like your idea for your next WH and look forward to watching what develops. Which ever animal you choose, it will be very cool.

As for Bilbens package, I just checked again and it seems it is still in Jamaica, NY. That really means it is at the JFK International Airport. Having the ability to track this stuff just causes me anxiety. Get on the plane and go already!:D
peace

I may try to do this again. Anyone like veggie cats? They are my favorites to do! But no commitment til i have it finished! So many plans, so little action, that's me! I'm still having double vision and headache. Such a drag! Maybe this will take my mind off it!

Hi every one. Rhonda, I am still waiting to hear from Bilben of the Yukon. I don't know how long it should take to get there from PA. This Monday will be two weeks. My tracking # has that it went through Jamaica NY and then nothing. I guess it doesn't track into Canada. I sent the tracking # to Bilben but don't know if she can pick it up on her side of the border. I am beginning to feel a little discouraged that yet another package has been lost on route.

I am sorry Bilben and if after a length of whatever time is appropriate to wait, I will make another WH for you and send it insured, priority plus and what ever else I have to do to get it there. Maybe deliver it myself!:D on dog sled.

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone
peace
peace

Ube, I would love you to hand-deliver it by dog sled! I'm getting out my camera!! The tracking number isn't working for me, which means that the WH isn't in Canada yet. Give it a couple of more weeks before you start to worry. Maybe the people at Customs are oohing and aahing over it before sending it on.

Here is my beautiful wallhanging from Ube. It took it's time getting here, but it was worth the wait! I love the colours, the quilting, the great variegated birds, and look at all the extra goodies she stuffed the box with! Thanks Ube!
