Nancia, try removing notifications and re-adding them. Check spam too, just in case. I accidentally put my yahoo quilt group on spam somehow, lol. This computer sometimes has a mind of its own & clicks more times than I mean for it too.

for some reason i have not been getting e-mails about this thread, so i just had a lot of reading to do to catch up. my, you've all been busy!
i have received a lovely table runner and coasters from my sender, lovingrandma! thank you so much! love the butterflies! for some reason i am in a "bug" phase and have started collecting fabrics with creepy crawlies, and altho' they are neither creepy nor crawly, i have included butterflies. i will post pictures soon! i posted this on the home decor 2 site by mistake, so i hope you saw it there and know that i have received it and love it! hope you are feeling better!

No problem! I had the same problem a few times with my hubby! I did learn you can schedule a pickup for priority mail at your front door, which is great since I do t have to drag both kids in to just drop off a package. We are waiting on pins and needles to get it, I doubt you will see it back . It's the kid in me that is being impatient. Thank you for all the work you have done, it brings me to tears to think of all the love and time you poured into it.
jamie-- my apologies! since you were out of town and didn't want the package to get there i held onto it. then dh forgot to take it to send it, and the old story goes-- if you want it done right do it yourself. soooo,,, yesterday i took it to fedex. it will be arriving at your house on wednesday the 10th. i couldn't afford the $150 to get it there on monday. every time i had to wait to send it i just made a little something else to go in it. hence, there are bunches of tape, so you will probably want to cut those before jayla tears into it. if she doesn't like it you can send it back to me. doubt i'll be seeing it on my doorstep! i hope you feel it was worth the wait.

jamie-- it was totally my pleasure! i taught 3yr olds for 6 years at a private school in dallas. i adore that age! so my heart and soul was definitely in this one. don't cry! just enjoy it with jayla.

oh Nancia my nerve damage causes me to hit things a bunch of times too often I see that is a duplicate of a post you just made.. huh> I am sure I only hit it once.. obviously not. you are not alone there kiddo. I want that package. unless you are willing to make me those things I wanted in a slightly enlarged size Nancia I wont let up. I will just bug that little one to give em up. thats what I will do! hey kid! come over here see what Brat has!! trade ya?? NO what do you mean NO.. kids these days. keeping all the good stuff.

be careful my bratty sister! i don't want jamie to guess! shhhhh...... i want all of it myself, too! best gifts are the ones you want yourself, as long as the recipient wants it , too! fingers crossed that she is pleased! i just adore three year olds! and her picture is soooo cute!
after wednesday if it arrives as scheduled you'll have to tell me what specifically you want. . or p.m. me! that'll work! my first swap on this board was called ' quilting in the new year'. we had partners and would glean from conversations what we thought they might like. so i made a reversible jacket with quilting at the cuffs and front edges from the side seams to the mandarin collar. she liked it so much she asked if i would make one for her daughter. so i did. i still have the pattern in a bunch of sizes, and it's fun to make. no darts, no buttons. i've meant to make one for me but haven't found the time or co-ordinating fabrics i want. i will. just saying so you know what i can do! i even have pictures somewhere, i think if you want to see them.

jamie-- don't tempt me! i miss having little kids around! a boy and a girl? yup, that would round out the family well. if brat can't take them i will! one year my 2 year old class had 10 boys out of 12 kids. i asked for a couple more girls, please. know what they told me?" you're so good with boys!" hello! i'm good with girls, too! lol ended up 3 girls 9 boys. very fun group! something about 2 yr old boys-- moms want them to go to school early! i don't know why. i find them absolutely darling! i taught 3 day 3's, and 2 day 2's. meant i got to celebrate double holidays! more parties, more fun! every year i made myself 2 halloween costumes. can't wear the same one 2 days in a row! fun times! so i'm well trained and have references! and all my shots!
