I didn't know about the 2 sizes either! I don't believe I've ever seen a large. It's strange how each post office is different. My post office will not put tape on packages, but they're more than happy to sell you some tape. :D

Mailed mine today. They made me take scraps out of envelope. Too full. They then retaped.
Hope it gets there ok.

Whoa...I wonder what's going to happen when I take in 16 envelopes! :shock:

Mailed mine today!!!

When you take in 16 envelopes, they will be soooo happy to see you! lol
You shouldn't have to buy tape. I was given a whole roll when my SIL was in Iraq. Still have it. They are so disorganized. No wonder they aren't making any money.
Hopefully they don't give you any trouble with all the pkgs.

I was doing multiple swaps a few years ago and had multiple envies to send and they all needed envelopes with return postage...the guy was SOOOO rude to me at the PO. He just looked at me and said you know...you are really holding my line up and I was so surprised I didn't say anything. But what I was thinking was..."WTF???"

Mailed my package off today! Can hardly wait for the shipping back day! :-) After reading some of your horror stories about PO's, I am glad I live in a small town with friendly staff. I kid with them each time I take a package in and tell them I am creating their job security!

3 more packages came in today from dd, walk-n-roll, and ntaylor. Thanks ladies, we're getting close!

Boy ntaylor, you were'nt kidding! I thought DH was bringing in a baby. :shock:

That's fine with me! As long as they go to a good home :)

Is that a new acronym? I got this one.lol hehehehehehehe

LOL! I have had all this since I started sewing a few years ago and am so glad to get rid of them and since Im into more paper piecing, I need more scrap variety.

You should of already gotten mine too!! My post office said I can stuff mine as long as the top seals so I glue mine shut that way I can stuff it more!!!!

Mail is here! I guess the mail carrier was late due to the snow we had last night.

Received packages from: :)

WTF is not a new acronym. sooooo.... i take it you have never had the ocassion to use this expression?:D

i really wish i had enough scraps to join yall this time around but not. twisted shoot me your address, i have a few things to share with you.

Oooh, I love it when people share! Address coming. :thumbup:

No mail today, maybe tomorrow.

I mailed mine today. I had to take some out at the post office. I had a zip lock bag full and then added more to fill the corners. The lady told me it had to close without tape for me to be able to mail it so I had to take a little out. Then what did she do???? SHE TAPED IT!!! LOL
Judy

:o LOL...I can just imagine what's going to happen when I go to the post office with all my packages. Hope all the regulars are there!

Still waiting on a few more packages to come in. I should be able to start swapping out on Monday.

Judy_68 is in! :)

wow that was really quick delivery. it seems that the priorty packages some of us have been sending lately are taking a week at least to get to their destination. i hanging in to see all of the goodies.:)

WooHoooooo, received Mzjwest's package. One more and the swapping begins!

Did you receive the last package?? :o

Last package should be here tomorrow. If not, I'm still going to swap everything out and get them in the mail. :thumbup:

If you mail them out on Tuesday, since there is no mail today, we should all be getting them by end of the week. Yahoo!

Darn, I forgot about President's Day. :eek: Tuesday it is!

I can't wait to get them! I'll be anxiously waiting at the mailbox :)

Packages should begin arriving in your mailboxes on Thursday. The guy at the post office was really pleasant. The envelopes appeared to be thinner than the usual ones. :eek: By the time I reinforced the closure flap and corners they looked like they had been in a war.

Thank you for doing this swap. Can't wait to get mine.

I got my scraps, some great stuff for paper piecing! Thanks everyone!

I received my scraps today (didn't get to PO yesterday). WOW such a varity of fabrics. Thanks

Got my squishie full of scraps. Love the variety! Thanks!

I received my package of goodies (scraps) today. Thanks so much for hosting this swap, Bev. I think there might be a kiddie quilt coming out of some of them. Sure fun to look at. Thanks to everyone who participated.

Got my package today!! How fun! Can wait to see what great quilts they will create. Thanks Bev for hosting....It has been a lot of fun...

I received my scraps on Friday and they are great. I can tell my swap partner likes the same kind of fabrics I do as I got some from her that were just like what I have in my stash.lol Was fun looking through all the little goodies. Thanks so much.

Glad everyone is happy with their package! Thanks to all who participated. :thumbup:

can i at least see a pic or two? i want to live scrap happy vicariously through all of you since i couldnt participate this time around. pleeeezzzzzzzzzzz!!!!:D

I tried, but my camera is dead. Just in case you don't get pictures, I will tell you that there were 2 groups of scrap swappers. The first group I called the Martha Stewart group. Swapper who took the time to neatly iron and fold pieces. The second group was called Roseanne Barr group. Assorted pieces just shoved in the bag/envelope. I'm a proud member of the Roseanne Barr group. :D

I received my package yesterday, but didn't get to the mailbox until this morning. I love the different ones I received & have a project I can use most them on. I'm one of the Roseanne Bar group, except I put mine in a large zip lock bag before inserting them in the envelope (just in case the envelope tore or opened.) Maybe I'm really a Roseanne Martha group!

Twisted Quilter, thank you so much for all your work on this scrap swap!

I got mine yesterday too. Got some really cute fabrics. Some just in time for the March BOM. Thanks for the fabrics Aunt Janey and thanks for doing this swap Twisted Quilter.
