Got my package in the mail today. It has quite a ways to go. Not sure how long it will take, but hope it isn't too long.

Verna sorry to see all the damage and headache you are going through. Hope the process goes smoothly. If the insurance company is dragging their feet or trying to give minimal compensation your insurance agent might be able to help with getting that to be more in your favor too.

Hi http://www.quiltingboard.com/customa...ar36885_13.gif haven't seen you on this one for awhile-nice to see you posting :)

My package headed out to its destination earlier today and should arrive early next week!

verna2197 09-10-2016 05:17 PM

Starshine I have turned everythin over to my Insurance Company. It was starting to be so much of a headache. So they are taking care of everything.
Thank you everyone for all the nice comments!

Well package is ready, will send out Tuesday.

catjo 09-12-2016 05:45 PM

I received a package that was filled with so much stuff I was surprised it could be shut. Mscupid804, (Teresa), sent me the most wonderful of things. I wish I could show you a picture. I received a book I was wanting, a bag to add to my collection for my "bag lady" title. lol kids fabrics, a pattern book on making kids quilts, and a Twister tool for making pinwheeels I have been wanting , and red embroidery floss as I have started on redwork and can never have enough. Everything I can definitely use. Thanks again Teresa for you wonderful package!

catjo 09-12-2016 05:48 PM

SP I mailed your package today. It is going way-way west of me. Should arrive Weds they say, but I don't trust the postal so probably Thursday as it has a way to go. You have no fur babies, no embroidery machine, and you like coffee. That is the hints for now.

Received my package from Gigi of 7, A set of fqs, another larger piece of fabric, push pins, paper clips, markers, crayons, color pencils, glue sticks, a wooden ruler, a ruler that curls up-with pocka dots on one side and the numbers on the other, a pretty dishcloth, a little lidded box with a handmade by Gigi button based lapel pin with little sewing embelishments. I will definitely wear it if I make it to a quilt show this fall! Nancy sorry I won't be sending you this pink button ;-) Thank you again Gigi for a fun and special package.

Hi Guys,

Okay............ Who did it! When we fill in our details that we send to Lori, we put our most wanted item on the list. Now, I never expect that item to be in my package as at times, it is more expensive than the guidelines that we have.... but I just pop it on there. Anyway this month my most wanted item was a ruler I tried to buy in August from Bloc-Loc when they were over at the NEC... but they had sold out!

Guess what arrived this morning.... the Bloc-Loc Ruler!!!! I am so stoked... BUT BUT BUT! WHO DID IT??????

Just so you know I would love to say a huge thank you in a PM, but I don't know who you are.... so, I will have to say it here!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Hugs

Caroline

Received an awesome SP package from Catjo today!! Some great panels that I'm really excited about because I use them to make quilts for children thru our fire and police dept. These are perfect!! I'm already a quarter way through the book, the grilling book is already in our RV, seeds for my garden and invisible thread that I use for stitching in the ditch!! Oh, and a new crossword puzzle just in time because I just finished my other one. I love and will be able to use everything you sent me. Thank you so much Cathy!

Today I received a wonderful package from Gaijin. Three books that I have not read. A large pack of Jelly Beans. A bundle of three Fairy Frost fabrics, a bundle of six batiks of various colors. A little light that goes on your finger, some Shituke pins from Japan, and a thimble from Bulgaria all packed in a very pretty box, (that I will have no problem filling). And a yard plus of beautiful Christmas fabric.

Thank you so much Deborah. I am going to take some pictures tomorrow and I'll try again to post pictures of this super package.

In case my pal has sent and is worried I haven't received my parcel, I'm at my vacation home and will be back later this week or early next. After a miserable wet summer, September has brought record temperatures which I'm making the most of before the long cold winter.

I still have not heard from 11 people as to if they have received their packages or not and 3 as to if they mailed theirs. Here is the link for the October swap.

I've been away from home for a family emergency for the past two weeks- arrived back home late last night...lots of mail to weed through...the highlight of the stack was my package from my secret pal! Thank you Linda! ( jans2orjaz2?) not sure.

Belfrybat 09-25-2016 09:28 AM

I"m getting lonely here on the bench all by myself. Anyone want to join me? I made a batch of chocolate chip cookies I'll share. :)

This is my parcel from Anoka Quilter. As always, she put together a thoughtful and generous gift. There's lots of dog themed fabric that I asked for, a fantastic lighthouse panel that I can't wait to work on, a wonderful tote that will be perfect to take back and forth to my vacation home, a date book and a great brochure of Minnesota. Thank you so much - I truly love it all.

Belfrybat I'll have one of those cookies...I'm still waiting ��

marietta 09-25-2016 03:08 PM

I received mine...But I'll wait with ya'l..... scoot over, I've brought milk for the cookies and fresh hot banana nut bread

catjo 09-25-2016 03:12 PM

I hope the bench is wide, as I want to come for the food. I received mine, but hey the food at that bench sounds way too good to pass up. I hope those that haven't received yet get theirs soon.

Bullock2us 09-26-2016 09:25 AM

I will join you on the bench too- still waiting on mine too!

catjo 09-26-2016 09:48 AM

Maybe there will be angel packages going out for those on the bench that haven't received their pkgs yet. I have been very fortunate and not have anyone flake out on me. It is really sad when it happens to anyone.

Belfrybat 09-26-2016 09:50 AM

Wow! Lots of us still waiting. Come set a spell--looks like we have plenty of goodies left. My birthday was last week so I was kind of seeing the swap package as part of my BD. Didn't happen, obviously, but at my age I really shouldn't even be celebrating BDs any more!

Catjo- I've been an angel more than once, so know Lori keeps up with obtaining angels when needed. She's the best.
