OK I decided what I am going to do and I just made a little gift bag out of scraps..to wrap it all in....I hope she loves it and that I chose well...whomever she is...lol! Will get it in the mail soon!

Are supposed to wrap the gift?

Maybe a pattern and some fabric to make the pattern. patterns and books are always nice :lol: Scissors or clippers.. Nice glass head pins...

well, this mouse has been busy. I have been reading up on my SS Swap receiver, and not only is it fun and interesting, but I have gotten so many new tips, and saw something I have to do for myself in the coming year!
Wow, it's like I am already getting pressies :mrgreen:
I am such a mush-mouse... :D

NAUGHTY: I didn't wash laundry today, bc it rained all day, and my dryer is broke. We do have a laundrymat though.

NICE: I have decided on all my SS gifts and starting to work on them.

Is it naughty or nice to be having soooo much fun? :wink:

Awww little mouse, you know having fun is always NICE!

I agree sandpat, it is always nice when you are having fun.

I have my package already to send out.

Waiting each day in anticipation of what I might get. This is the fun part :)

I did it :D I bought the gifts and have a theme which is not Christmas but winterish. I have the FQ she wanted so I am set to go. I am so excited I hope she likes it, now once it is delived ( I have to order on line) I will wrap them up tie them with a bow and ship it on it's merry way. CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!

Hey tru - just pm'd you!

I'm almost done with my SS... I know what she likes in terms of fabrics, so yesterday I went to my LQS and said "I need to buy some FQ's for a SS and she likes """>>>fabrics""& quot; - I know very little about this type. He (yes, the LQS is owned by a husband and wife) is a total """>>>fabrics""& quot; fan and he took me over to the section and helped me chose 5 that he said were either unusual, or must haves for the """>>>fabrics""& quot; collector! So, I hope I did well for my person... :oops: I'm a little nervous since you don't want to send them something they don't like, right??!!!

I know...I know!!!!! Its "quilting" fabrics...right???!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I was having a hard time finding the fabrics that were requested. I was starting to get nervous about not finding it. I was talking to OMAK about it and now OMAK is helping me out in that department. I will put it was from the both of us lol.

know what you mean my ss didnt give any iseads and her posts havent helped

In Lurkingdom people are nuts for fabrics + fabrics and other shapes than rectangular omnigrid rulers, they are incredibly overpriced there ... :roll:

:lol:

Well I did some shopping today and I love all the fabrics so that means I would keep them so I did find these UGLY FQ's that I hated!! I will send those :shock: :shock: Just kidding :lol:




or am I????????

ok, ok, Yes I am just kidding :twisted: :twisted: I love what I picked out but they are not for me. I will mail the pretty ones :roll:

Mailed today a box to my SS in Ohio. Hope it gets there soon.
8)

Did I miss something?? I didn't get my name yet?

aww, I hate that fabrics cost so much in other countries...sounds like they need new RULERS, lol...land of all great quilting laws...
-fabric for everyone
-tools in every pot
-no home without a sewing machine and quilting frame
-threads and notions a national must
-lowest prices available

Wow, if i find out where Lurkingdom is, and go there and get elected to be their new MouseQueen, ligia...you'll never have to worry about fabrics and such again. :D

Did you ever send shadowdancer a pm??

Suzi, sent you a PM! :D

OH KNOW I am in Ohio please don't let it be me I won't be able to stand it having a box so soon.

Suzic46, I sent your info to you the night of October 23rd. I pasted the original message with your person's information to you in a PM.

S.D.

I have all my stuff for my SS lady or guy and it will be in the mail soon. Don't get out much!!! Hope you like everything I bought you.

I think I have almost everything for my SS gift!!!But I'm going on a trip this weekend and I know that there is a great quilt shop in town. So I will wait to send it until I get back. I just might find something extra special at that shop. Hehe!

smarty mousie ...

Poor little mousie's crown would probably crush her though...we'll have to think of another title other than "Queen"...and we'll have to whip her up another type of regal dress....**thinking***

does Mousie even dare ask??? :mrgreen:
I'll take Princess Mousie, thank you. Patti be good to me, and I'll let you open the new shipments when they come in. You will be frisked before leaving the royal fabric room though. Of course you will be paid in fabrics for this special privilege. Princess Mousie is not stingy :wink:

OK...I guess its a small tiara and the we'll add some sparkle to the dress you have on...you are waving that "royal stick"...whats that thing called??? I'm not sure about that frisking part...makes me think you don't really trust me :roll: I'm gonna have to think about that....may even have to have a talk with the royal "taster"...you know the one who makes sure theres no De-Con in your food??????? Maybe you should rethink that frisking part. :shock:

============================================
sapdoggie here -----
You can trust me to open the shipments- can I be an assistant ???
You all are having way too much fun, must have lots of extra time to tease.
Well, am off to work in the "real" world, although "lurkingdom" sounds like much more fun.

hmmm, out of self preservation...here's the deal, you keep all fabrics you keep in your pockets for payment, and no talking to the 'royal taster'...he's quite busy...(going to get tape for royal tasters...um, never mind tape,...getting ear plugs for him!) :wink:

[quote=sapdoggie]

sure sapdoggie, the more the merrier. It will give us all practice on opening SS boxes...and keep us out of trouble,...maybe...if a fracas over fabric doesn't break out...then
PATTI...i will have to wave my magic needle-wand, and order the peasants to cease and desist fighting over fabrics, lol!
There's plenty for everybody. :lol:

NAUGHTY: I am still on pc.

NICE: I am getting off in a minute. Shopped just a tad more yesterday :wink: and hankering to go get busy :wink:
Wouldn't you like to know, doing what???? 8)

Now little mousie...how do you know that I'm not just pocketing all that "extra" fabric to give it all away to the poor quilters who can't afford to buy fabric???? That makes me a little like Robin Hood, doncha' think?

hmmm, a RobinHood, quilter...but there are sooo many that don't have fabrics...it's ok, as long as them pockets ain't too deep :roll:
A Mouse Princess of Fabrics can't run out, after all...that wouldn't look good to the ppl of Lurkingdom!
I must sew, I must sew, so off pc I go...see Santa? even Princesses have things to do...no napping and cake for me...not right now :wink:

I mailed my ss yeaterday, to Montana,

My SS gift is in the mail some where. I hope it's recipient doesn't get too antsy waiting to open it ;)

OH gosh....I hope its not to me...I can't stand to look at it for that long....pppllllleeeeeease don't mail mine yet!!! :shock: :shock:

You know Ms. Patti, you are begging to get that package mailed early....some devilish SS is going to try and torture you... :twisted:
